HOLES IN A POT ARGUMENT

Re "Cannabis conundrum: As alcohol and tobacco prove, the ultimate
cost of legalizing pot is too high," Opinion, June 7

Really?

If Kevin A. Sabet thinks that people want to try pot but haven't done
so merely because it's illegal, he really needs to get out more.

People who want to try marijuana will do so. Legality has little
bearing on it.

I have never tried pot and never will unless I need it to get through
chemotherapy -- legal or not.

I hope that in 10 years, we can look back at the "war on drugs" and
see it for what it is: a ridiculously archaic way of thinking.
