Again a total waste of time and money by our government. I am for doing away with the war on drugs and save all those salarys of the people that are a big drain on the treasury. Our government needs to cut way back and quit spending. Getting rid of this agency would be a good first step. Second i would get rid of whats known as Home Land Security??? We already have the FBI which we relied on since government started. Just think how many dollars we would save by closing just these two agencys. We got along for many years without them, why do we need them now?

"freakin liberals"??? Seriously? Not only is your not seemingly matched to your obvious conservatively blocked mind vocabulary obviously uneducated, but yet you advise for the poster to move to California?? Wake up call, Colorado has actually furthered the Medical Marijuana laws by placing it into the constitution, whereas California's Medical Law is just a bill. Please educate yourself before you blog troll, Marijuana is a much healthier alternative to today's pain treatment medications, however this man was not wise in boasting about his operation/location, he was not simply making a living, but supplying this great state with great medication, please do some research and open your tunnel vision from the false propaganda.
