Seattle Mayor-elect supports marijuana legalization

Seattle Mayor-elect Mike McGinn as quoted in a recent radio interview on NPR:

"If every elected official who ever smoked marijuana voted to legalize it would probably be legalized in an instant. We recognize that, like alcohol, it's something that should be regulated not treated as a criminal activity and I think that's where the citizens of Seattle want us to go."

Bravo.

I hope he is keen to spread the word around - he could start by inviting the Mayor of Christchurch (Seattle Sister City) to come over and take a look - said Mayor, I am reliably informed, is fond of "other peoples!" (but dare not talk about pot, prefers to see them arrested... )
