Letter: Keep medicinal benefits of pot

Tuesday, Oct. 29, 2002 | 8:59 a.m.

In regards to Question 9 and the use and possession of marijuana:

Why can't it be regulated so the medicinal benefits won't have to be withheld for all those it could help without creating a blanket approval for everyone over the age of 21 to have up to 3 ounces for recreational purposes?

It could benefit the needy and eliminate the fear of it becoming a widespread gateway drug.
