San Diego Union Tribune, 03 May 2013 – Regarding your May 2 editorial, "How to end the battle over marijuana": If health outcomes determined drug laws, marijuana would be legal and there would be no medical marijuana debate. Unlike alcohol, marijuana has never been shown to cause an overdose death, nor does it share the addictive properties of tobacco. Marijuana can be harmful, but jail cells are inappropriate as health interventions and ineffective as deterrents.
