POT LAWS REVOLTING

I was appalled to read "Guns, drugs scary mix" (Joe Warmington, April
21) regarding the rally at Yonge-Dundas Square. The protesters'
actions were "revolting"? What's revolting are the laws that prohibit
the use of marijuana for medical or recreational use. The individual
who pulled the gun in no way represented the ideals the protesters
stand for - and people attending the rally disarmed the man. Marijuana
use helps so many people with their pain, and is a worthy substitute
for pharmaceutical drugs which can cause addiction and severe side
effects.

about)
