DON'T FIRE THE DA FOR USE OF MARIJUANA

Dear Editor,

I would like to respond to Mr. Davis letter in which he calls for the
immediate termination of District Attorney Ed Fernandez, who was
recently arrested for possession of marijuana.

I am in harmony with Mr. Davis regarding medical marijuana, and am
also in favor of the legalization of marijuana for recreational purposes.

As such, I can not condone firing anyone for the mere use or
possession of marijuana. If Mr. Fernandez has prosecuted others for
similar crimes perhaps he will rethink his position and become a force
for reform; he will have little opportunity to do so if his job is
forfeited.
