PROHIBITION, NOT CRIME, IS MARIJUANA PROBLEM

Crime isn't due to marijuana grow operations (Guns Gangs And
Grow-Ops: Police Target 'Food Groups Of Crime, Sept. 13,) but rather
cannabis (marijuana) prohibition.

It is in the same way there was crime not due to alcohol and illegal
distilleries, but rather alcohol prohibition, during the 1920s.

As Al Capone s history in Chicago, Ill. exposes how the original
prohibition was bad, the sequel is worse.

The Review can help by honestly asking questions, researching and
reporting instead of parroting government and law enforcement's one
side of the story. It is time to stop persecuting, prohibiting and
exterminating the God-given plant cannabis.
