Sacramento News & Review, 17 Jan 2013 – Re "Kids and pot" by Ngaio Bealum (SN&R The 420, January 3): The problem with filling the air with pot smoke is twofold: One, not everyone wants to smoke it and be high. The second and more important factor is that you are imposing secondhand smoke on people with health issues. My girlfriend has asthma, and smoke triggers breathing problems for her within a very short period of time. For someone to go around thinking it’s their "God-given right" to smoke wherever they please is insensitive and rude at the least. There’s nothing stopping people from getting high at home and then going to a movie or dinner. We certainly should have an "open pot burner" law in order to protect others from inconsiderate smokers who think the world only belongs to them. I used to smoke weed on occasion, but I don’t miss the smoke-filled concert halls one bit. In fact, it’s pretty damn nice being able to go out later and not smell like a pot farm.
