Police hate us because we debunk all their lies about marijuana: They say pot is dangerous and we prove them wrong by using copious amounts - - and getting healthier. They say grow-ops are dangerous and it is impossible to safely grow pot in a home, but licensed growers prove them wrong by growing in homes for almost a decade with almost no problems. Cops say prohibition is the best way to control drug use, but we medical users constantly bring media and public attention to the fact prohibition causes more danger than it solves.
