Letter to the Editor
Dear Editor:
Re: MEDICAL MARIJUANA ADVOCATES ACCUSED OF CULTIVATION FOR SALE (LAT 7/24)
Peter McWilliams is the latest victim of a control mad government that
can't stand scrutiny or criticism of its immoral, illogical, degenerate,
failed, and wildly expensive "War on Drugs."
Not only has McWilliams been indicted for what appears to be the "heinous
crime" of growing medicine for sick people but this nationally famous
author is being held on $250,000 bail as if he were likely to flee the
country. To say I am ashamed of my government doesn't begin convey my
feelings.
To add insult to injury, McWilliams is being denied medication. He is an
AIDS and cancer patient, and withholding this medication for any serious
length of time amounts to a death sentence for this "dangerous criminal."
I guess we have come full circle. The country that used to be proud of its
freedom and openness now puts a death sentence on an individual without
trial. Communist China is looking better and Drug Czar McCaffrey is looking
more sinister and wicked all the time.
