SIMILARITIES BETWEEN BREWERS, POT SHOPS

Seeing the U-T story on microbreweries ("Someone hand South Bay a 
beer," Oct. 12), I thought how very similar they were to marijuana 
dispensaries and in some ways completely different.

Marijuana dispensaries were put to a vote of the people, 
microbreweries rely on loopholes and officials to game the system.

Marijuana is usually consumed at home, microbrewery beer is usually 
consumed in public.

Marijuana dispensaries are exiled to industrial zones, microbreweries 
are being placed in residential neighborhoods.

Do you want San Diego to be the "microbrewery capitol of the world"?
