GOING AFTER POT WASTES RESOURCES

Re "D.A. prepares to crack down on pot outlets," Oct. 9

Even though a majority of L.A. County and California citizens wanted
to make pot more readily available to those who benefit medically, it
doesn't matter to these "crusaders of right" what most people want.
Can't the prosecution spending spree on these matters be better spent
on keeping our cops from being laid off?

After 26 years on the Superior Court Bench, I can tell you by
experience that looking for baby-killers and out of control gang
members is far more important.
