PROSECUTIONS FOR POT WASTE TIME, MONEY

Apparently South Carolina is so flush with cash during this economic crisis
that it can afford to expend precious resources building a case against
gold medal-winner Michael Phelps for allegedly smoking pot ("Lawyer: S.C.
police targeting Phelps," Feb. 13).

But wasting time and money prosecuting someone for a harmless
activity epitomizes the failed war on drugs; indeed, it suggests a
good argument for legalizing marijuana.

Keeping pot illegal drains our resources while keeping the narcotics
business buzzing and the Mexican murder rate high.
