I want to thank you for publishing Paul Danish's editorial in the April 23-29 issue. As far as I'm concerned, he's the best editorial writer you have. Whether I agree with him, or not, he is always interesting and provocative. I particularly enjoy it when he pisses off everyone, from the far right to the far left. However, in this instance, I am just very grateful for his stand on legalization of marijuana. How can our elected officials look themselves in the mirror? How much longer can they continue to insist the emperor is wearing clothes? The continued obstinacy on this subject by our representatives leads any aware individual to conclude that they must in fact be representing the criminal element that profits from prohibition and not the honest people who have elected them.
