FAST FOOD CAUSES MORE PROBLEMS

I'm writing about Robert Sharpe's thoughtful June 21 letter to Fence
Post, "Marijuana ban isn't working."

The prohibition of recreational marijuana is not the proper role of a
free country's government. Every justification for the prohibition of
marijuana can also be made for the prohibition of hot dogs,
cheeseburgers and a long list of other unhealthy foods.

Heart disease kills a lot more people than illegal drugs. Do we want
our police arresting and jailing people for eating unhealthy foods? I
hope not. Do we want our police arresting each other for eating
doughnuts? Perhaps.
