In response to James Shaw “McClintock vote up in smoke” (Reader Input, June 16), what part of the government not interfering in your life don’t you like?

The fact is that people already know about this stuff, and they choose to smoke anyway. This legislation does nothing to address the real problem: addiction.

It is another example of form over substance. I for one, want the government involved in as little as possible, kind of like the original intent of our founding fathers.

Let freedom ring!
