I challenge him to explain how regulating drugs out of the hands of children and gangsters will be worse than what we have now? I challenge him also, to show us all how bank robbing, murder, rape, pillage, and so on is criminally and socially equal to smoking pot or growing plants? As for why the learned ones haven't thought about doing it (legalization) sooner, the government, and police are far more interested in control and politics than in public safety. Their actions have proven this repeatedly. Russell Barth Federal Medical Marijuana License Holder Ottawa - --- MAP posted-by: Elaine
