LUCKY GUY

TO THE EDITOR: In response to Christopher Largen ("Your Views," Oct. 5), 
George McMahon is lucky. He was one of the first people allowed to legally 
possess marijuana for his medical condition. There would be many more if 
the first President Bush hadn't discontinued this program. Only McMahon and 
four other people can now legally smoke marijuana in this country. Be 
aware: If you're using this herb for a medical reason in Oklahoma, you 
won't be able to tell that to your jury. There's no medical exclusion in 
our law.
