EASY SOLUTION TO JAIL CROWDING

I'm writing about: "Sheriff Presents 'Plan B' For Jail" (The Morning
News, March 8, 2007).

I have a common-sense, easy and inexpensive solution to your jail
overcrowding situation.

Reserve your jail space for only those who intentionally harm others
against their will. Not gardeners. Not people who use, produce or
sell to willing buyers "unapproved" products.

Re-legalize the now illegal unapproved products so they can be sold
in legal, licensed, regulated and taxed business establishments. Just
like we do for the unapproved products tobacco and alcohol.

What message would this send to our children? The same message we
send to children by allowing alcohol and tobacco to sold in legal and
licensed business establishments.

A free country's government cannot protect its adult citizens from
themselves. A free country's government has no right attempting to do so.
