Web: Letter Of The Week - Broke California Is Wasting Money on
DrugSense Blog, 11 Feb 2011 - BROKE CALIFORNIA IS WASTING MONEY ON BUSTS It has been 15 years, and law enforcement still thinks the medical marijuana laws are confusing. As long as marijuana is not taxed and regulated like booze and tobacco, this is going to happen. Law enforcement has to do this to prop up their belief in reefer madness. They will always look for a way to trip up those dope-smoking hippies and throw them in jail. It is interesting that law enforcement doesn't get paid extra for going after murderers and rapists, but they do get federal dollars for targeting marijuana. This current bust ("The road ahead is filled with potholes," Jan. 27) cost about a million taxpayer dollars. I would have rather seen this money going to schools.
