HONORABLE STANCE ON POT

CONGRATULATIONS to Mark Leno for his resolution requesting local officials
not to cooperate with federal drug warriors prosecuting medicinal marijuana
users ("Supes to feds: Pot OK in The City," The Examiner, Nov. 27).

As another candidate for state Assembly in District 13, I now feel a little
bit better about the possibility that he will win.

A similar state-wide proposal, requiring California district attorneys to
abide by Proposition 215, and denying cooperation to federal officials, is
a key part of my Libertarian platform for office, "legalize love, legalize
health, legalize work," along with a marriage equality act and a repeal of
the state income tax.
