"John Suthers said about the CU case that the medical-marijuana law has become a "front for widespread marijuana distribution."

"The proponents of these laws make them intentionally ambiguous, causing significant problems for law enforcement in Colorado and elsewhere," he said."


Maybe since about 75% of the American public (his bosses!) support MMJ, we ought to try something new- like legalizing ALL medical usage- from OTC headache cure to cancer! THAT would certainly cure any "significant problems for law enforcement in Colorado and elsewhere."

Our economy is in a financial crisis, let's stop wasting money on "weed control"! Helicopters are expensive to run, but they are criss-crossing the country, looking for plants to destroy! Millions of man-hours are wasted in the mid-west, trying to eliminate "ditch weed", feral hemp which is just a weed bearing little or no THC. The value is artificially raised to make the DEA "look good". All of this is on the tax-payer's (your) money.

And folks don't realize that local cannabis growers are often the community's big spenders. A chunk of that "X dollars worth of cannabis" money would have bought clothes, food, gas, and other "luxury" items from the community. Losing a few local growers in rural California, can affect the whole community.

As soon as cannabis is freed, and every "granny" has a few plants tucked in among the roses, the price will plummet! Organized crime will find other more profitable ventures. They follow the money! (I want to see $10 ounces again!)

I think "herbal medicine" will experience an upswing in popularity - cannabis's popularity will get folks wondering about other herbal cures. More studies will happen. (Big pharma will NOT be happy.)

And think of the children! In Holland, their rates of underage cannabis use is WAY LOWER than the US. And states with MMJ have dropping numbers of underage users! After all, it just isn't that glamorous to be using the same stuff as your granny uses for her arthritis! No more "forbidden fruit" temptation.


As soon as cannabis is legal for anyone to use, we can stop throwing out money away and.......

help out schools. Children are our future...invest in them.

fix the roads- they are crumbling!

provide help for the homeless.... whether from a personal disaster or a national one.

fix the levies along the Mississippi and replant them with hemp to hold the soil- like they used to be!

And, and, and..............

Granny :hippy:
