COPS AND CANNABIS ISSUE

To The Editor:

Re "Killed over a bag of weed" (letter, by Jerry The Peddler, Feb.
9):

Police are people in a position of trust and should not be
perpetuating cannabis (marijuana) prohibition or condoning shooting
teenagers over a bag of weed. Police and their unions are to be
disrespected if they continue to lobby to cage responsible adults who
choose to use the extremely popular, relatively safe God-given plant
(see the first page of the Bible) cannabis.
