Regarding “Taking on the pot law” (SD Union editorial, November 6): Marijuana is not any worse than booze. Until 1960 marijuana could be legally prescribed by a doctor or dentist. I do not use drugs myself, nor do I smoke. For you to say it has no value is plain stupid. Wait until you or your loved ones get cancer and you will talk out of the other side of your mouth.
I am a former policeman and a 66 year-old native San Diegan. We spend billions of dollars fighting drugs, and they still keep coming in. Let’s think of smarter ways to spend our money. The people of California have spoken.
