S. Customs and Border Protection for this latest marijuana bust and others like it. Without operations such as this, marijuana would be worth what other easy-to-grow weeds are worth - very little. Thanks to the Drug Enforcement Administration and other so-called "drug warriors," the easy-to-grow weed is worth almost as much as pure gold - and completely tax free. Any marijuana traffickers arrested will soon be replaced. They always are. Kirk Muse Mesa - --- MAP posted-by: Larry Seguin
