I'm sure many marijuana growers and sellers are thankful to the Sheriff's Department narcotics detectives for this recent bust and others like it. Without operations like this, marijuana would be worth what other easy-to-grow weeds are worth -- very little. Thanks to the Drug Enforcement Administration and other so-called "drug warriors," the easy-to-grow weed is worth more than pure gold -- and completely tax free. Any marijuana growers or sellers arrested will soon be replaced; they always are. Kirk Muse Mesa, AZ - --- MAP posted-by: Jo-D
