Police nab more than 60,000 marijuana plants

Deputies seized more than 60,000 marijuana plants over the past week from the Santa Ana River bed west of Norco, potentially removing millions of dollars from the pockets of drug dealers, sheriff's officials said.

Sheesh, so now you are stating marijuana is not a drug? If it is not a drug by the classic definition what is it? A floorwax or a dessert topping?

study after study has validated that Marijuana is a drug and furthermore a gateway drug.

Without getting the hand puppets out I don’t think I can make my argument to you any clearer.

Best of luck to those kids.

You sure like to twist things back and forth. First you make a blanket statement about parents who smoke marijuana. Then you turn it around and make your statement about "drugs" which obviously can include a great number of other things. Now you try and twist my words back on themselves to intimate that I'm denying marijuana is a drug. You are one pathetic debater. It's like talking to Algore.

Those men don't need luck. One has worked full time since he was 15 while learning to play guitar like Eddie Van Halen. Made himself indispensable to every employer he's had beginning with an auto body shop. Studied computer engineering, put his wife through the Colorado School of Mines to become an oil field engineer and now he is director of a private music school having taught classes himself in the past.

His younger brother, who is dyslexic and has epilepsy, was running his own stone masonry business by the age of 20 and doing such fine work that he charges much more than any other mason in the area which is choked with contractors. He is booked up at least six months in advance, has been flown to Hawaii to do stone work, gives his wife $1,000 month allowance beyond paying all the bills on the house they bought when he was about 22, boat, 2 - mid'60s camaros for her, big Dodge diesel for him, blah blah blah...

And none of those things are what I meant when I said they were men at the age of 15. I seriously doubt that someone with your mind would understand or appreciate what I had in mind. You just don't have the mental power to push a cart in a flea circus.
