CLAIMS ABOUT ICE, MARIJUANA RIDICULOUS

I've seen letters to the editor espousing legalization of marijuana and
others saying that the ice epidemic is due in great part to a shortage of
it. Each time, I tell myself that I should write a letter to say how
ridiculous I think those comments are, but I never get it done.

However, Lee Cataluna's July 22 column has said it for me. I don't agree
with everything she writes, but I do enough of the time to always read it.

This time I agree so much that it's as though she took the thoughts right
out of my head. She expressed it so well that copies should be provided to
every drug counselor in the state to study so they'll be prepared with just
the right words to answer such ridiculous assertions.
