PRESCRIPTION DRUGS MORE HARMFUL THAN POT

My heart goes out to Chuck D. Ream of Ann Arbor, who lost his sister
to alcoholism. His letter on medical marijuana as far as I'm
concerned was 100 percent accurate. What bothers me the most is some
people think that pot is a "gateway" to use other drugs. I do not
believe that for a minute.

It is finally legal to smoke and grow marijuana in the state of
Michigan; however, under federal law it is still quite illegal. Who
is the federal government to dictate state law? Drugs such as
Vicodin, Oxycontin and other narcotic painkillers are a lot worse on
the human body than pot ever was. In fact, some of the teenagers
these days are becoming dependent on painkillers, and even the
anti-anxiety drugs such as Xanax and Atavan.

So with this said, you be the judge. Sorry again for your loss, Chuck.
