POT REGULATION MAKES SENSE

Kudos on calling for an end to marijuana prohibition. Repealing the harmful
and costly prohibition on marijuana is a policy that should have been
implemented years ago.

If it had been, many of the problems we are now dealing with would never
have occurred.

The challenge is not whether to legalize - any rational view of the evidence
mandates that conclusion. Instead, the challenge is to establish a
regulatory environment that makes sense. A good first step would be to let
the so-called "decriminalization" bill die a well-earned death.
