BIASED JOURNALISM
Hey dude, maybe you should cut back on whatever it is you take. In your
little spiel "Pipe dream" (Editorial, Sept. 5), I was left wondering a few
things. Mostly, how is it possible that you consider yourself an unbiased
journalist?
First, if you believe that something of "potential" harm should be
outlawed, would that make you a proponent for the criminalization once
again of alcohol? How about throwing tobacco producers and users into
prison? If two wrongs don't make a right, why then do you not write about
outlawing these proven killers?
Then there's your remark about chronic users being lethargic and truant.
Me, I'm a chronic user and I'll bet any amount of money that I could work
circles around you. I can probably out-type you as well, oh desktop warrior
that you are.
