the cannabis laws are a joke to anyone that uses reason and logic to formulate laws (which they dont). it is an embarrassment to use those photos in the article as an indication of some 'big' grow. prohibition DOESNT work. Albert Einstein -The prestige of government has undoubtedly been lowered considerably by the prohibition law. For nothing is more destructive of respect for the government and the law of the land than passing laws which cannot be enforced. It is an open secret that the dangerous increase of crime in this country is closely connected with this. Herman Hesse -Those who are too lazy and comfortable to think for themselves and be their own judges obey the laws. Others sense their own laws within them.
