GREEN TEAM 'BLATANT HYPOCRISY'
Your article concerning the operations of the "Green Team" read at the
height of ridiculous. The blatant hypocrisy surrounding the issue of
marijuana being illegal to this day, is at the point of extreme. It
is common knowledge that people of all walks, including so-called
"pillars of the community" engage in the use of marijuana regularly.
Why the ingestion of a plant is disallowed at all, despite copious
scientific evidence citing its medicinal benefits, remains the
question. Any sensible mind, is capable of reasoning that the effects
of alcohol and manufactured chemical substances, such as
pharmaceutical drugs, and even much of the food on grocery store
shelves, are potentially much more harming to the human body, than a
plant that is grown and harvested naturally. Did you know that you
could die from eating too many carrots? What's next?
P.S. With all of the Brian Zacharias letters/submissions you print
why don't you just hire him already? Don't you think we're all just a
little tired of being subjected to his self-centered, infantile
rhetoric that nobody agrees with anyway - What is it you are trying to
accomplish by it? Unless, of course, it is a slanted means of
expressing your own biases.
