@ Painretreat - I totally agree that growers are our biggest asset- as well as the breeders. I am not against anyone growing AND I agree, can't be an activist and a grower, one or the other...
Just against what I have watched happen in my state since the legalizations out west, makes my heart hurt to see it as I am sure many people in the west felt the same way....
I do however have a sense of humor- the first thing I thought when reading your post " damn is he saying EVERYONE in TN is too busy growing to be an activst?' LOL....may be true...

Peace and thanks for your insight!
