This is an issue of personal freedom, period. Marijuana is no more harmful than alcohol. Indeed, it may be a good deal less destructive to the body than alchohol is. I'm sure that Mr. Hewett enjoys an occasional drink, yet he would deny the same pleasure to marijuana users. Or does Mr. Hewett think that the U.S. should return to the days of Prohibition? The fact is, marijuana users have been facing a prohibition of their own, even though marijuana use isn't particularly harmful. Let's do the right thing and legalize this indulgence for people who want to use it.
