Now the federal government has a program in Southwest Washington that will target sick people for growing their medicine. What is the threat of sick and dying people? I for one do not feel threatened by them. This is a great waste of our tax dollars and law enforcement. We need to better use law enforcement resources for violent criminals, not sick and dying medical marijuana patients. Meril Draper, Brinnon - --- MAP posted-by: Jo-D
