POT WAR UNNEEDED

What if they banned wine?

This phony prosecutors' war on cannabis, a harmless plant, is just so
silly - politicians who are for the war on drugs just support the
black market.

Since no one ever died from too much weed, isn't the amount of
taxpayer funds being used to fight this war poorly spent?

Just legalize it and tax it.

I don't know how many medical marijuana patients you personally know,
but I know several, and they are among the most law-abiding and gentle
folks I know. Heck, most of them are even pretty quiet.
