READERS SOUND OFF ON POT ISSUE

I would like a candidate for office to not only admit that they smoked pot,
but I would like them to also admit that the war on drugs is a complete
farce - that we are spending billions of dollars in a farcical manner.
Meanwhile, we have children having classes in halls because we don't have
enough classrooms. We are wasting money, punishing pot-smokers, burning pot
fields, and we have children sitting in halls. Our priorities are askew.
