CHIEF BACKED ON POT POSITION
To the editor:
Re: 'Police chief's position on pot criticized,' Sept. 18, 2002.
Chief Kevin McAlpine's position is perfectly sane, and from a historical
perspective, it may be noted societies which have had unfettered access to
daga, cannabis, or any of its derivatives have had the distinction to have
been among the most primitive. It may also be said historically, that
during periods of enlightenment and Renaissance, cannabis usage was
virtually irrelevant.
