I feel much safer now that we have the evil weed off the street. I wish the CHP would put 50% of their force on this so that we can do even better.

It's part of the culture war. Sorry if pot-lovers must suffer for it, but whatever locks away criminals is a good thing.

Not sure I believe this. Sounds like they're just justifying their jobs.

Agents have seized more than $2.6 billion worth of marijuana plants this year, already surpassing last year's season total by 20 percent, authorities said.

So, does this mean they're winning the War on Drugs, or losing?

This is just what they have found, in one state. Imagine if ALL the crop from ALL the US was taxed and legal. Not only would tax revenue rise through the roof, but law enforcement would have a tremendous increase in available manpower. Police currently used in the WOD could go after crack, heroin, coke and meth dealers and maybe, just maybe, there would be enough manpower to tackle the illegal alien problem. All this for a product that is basically the equivalent of tobacco.

Before any of you guiltless stone throwers start on me, I don't smoke the stuff but don't care if people, free people, smoke pot or tobacco.

Cops have the best dope!

I want these men dead or in jail. If we have to ban milk to do it, then milk-lovers should sacrifice.
