I'd rather purchase products from hemp grown by American farmers. It's anti-American that communist Chinese farmers may grow hemp but free American farmers may not. Another reason to permit America's farmers to grow hemp is that it's biblically correct, as God indicated in Genesis that he created all the seed-bearing plants, saying they are all good. The only biblical restriction placed on cannabis is that it is to be accepted with thankfulness. (1 Timothy 4:1-5). Stan White, Dillon, Colo. - --- MAP posted-by: Richard Lake
