disagree; it is a topic in the news, and as such is worthy of discussion; also it provides a very good snapshot of big gov vs little gov regulation...FR has always prided itself on its rejection of big gov, but now pot comes along, and all of a sudden the most draconian gov regimentation, jail time and all, is desirable to some; all over a substance that causes no more discernible harm to society than any other that it improperly used...this smacks of rank hypocrisy, and some on FR cheer it heartily...
