Letter: Cannabis should be made legal, taxed
---
As a police officer, I arrested several people for DUI which was
unrelated to alcohol. Stan White is wrong. Cannabis is a mind-altering,
intoxicating and slightly addictive drug. It is not a play toy and
should never be used by teens.
I also believe that it should be legal, regulated taxed and given the
same regulations as alcohol and tobacco. Public safety will improve,
when we stop chasing adults using cannabis in their homes and instead
focus on the deadly DUI and reckless drivers.
