I think the Canadian government is doing the logical thing and is further ahead in the fight against terrorism than the U.S. Prohibition of marijuana fuels the black market. Marijuana is the most sought-after drug in the world, and terrorists thrive from the money made off it. The people of the United States are the number one consumers of marijuana and are, therefore, the biggest source of possible terrorist income. We must do away with marijuana prohibition in the United States. Let Canada lead us into a freer and safer world. Richard J. Rawlings Illinois Marijuana Party Peoria - --- MAP posted-by: Tom
