MORE HARM IN PROHIBITING MARIJUANA THAN USING IT
Re: 'Proof is out there about harm from marijuana' (Daily News, Dec. 3)
I accept the writer's contention that marijuana is harmful, but
prohibiting it causes a lot more harm - criminal record for users,
involvement of organized crime, huge taxpayer-funded costs, etc.,
etc. - than if the users and their suppliers were left in peace.
