Editor,

The San Mateo Daily Journal reported that San Mateo is going to effectively prevent most medical marijuana patients from smoking their medicine, a method of consumption which gives instant relief when compared to ingesting it (“Council adds medical pot restrictions” in the July 4 edition of the Daily Journal). Way to go San Mateo and the rest of the municipalities considering these actions. Too bad for that home-bound cancer patient that wants a little relief from the terrible nausea affecting them. It was clever of the cities to circumvent the will of statewide voters who overwhelmingly voted to provide access to this substance.
