How do you feel about legalizing recreational marijuana?

J.B. Pritzker says he wants to make legalization of recreational marijuana in Illinois one of his first orders of business when he becomes governor in January. Should our state rush to join the 10 states - including Colorado, Oregon, Vermont and, just this week, Michigan - that have decided to permit people to possess marijuana for personal use? If so, what should be the rules and limits? We want to know what you think. On Monday's Opinion page, we'll have excerpts from comments made on both our Daily Herald Facebook page and our Voices of the Suburbs Facebook page. We also welcome your letters for a special Opinion-page presentation in our print edition later in the week. Letters are limited to a maximum of 200 words and must include the your full name, hometown and (not for publication) a phone number where you can be reached if necessary.
