LEGALIZE, LEGALIZE, LEGALIZE

Re "Altered state" by Nick Miller (SN&R Feature, August
27):

Though cannabis sales will possibly bring in $1.4 billion, if the
state passes the Tax, Regulate, and Control Cannabis Act of 2010, it
will also legalize industrial hemp, which will increase revenue for
the state coffers and create more jobs giving the state economy a huge
boost. This initiative will also protect medical-cannabis users and
release people from jail whose only crime was nonviolent possession or
ingestion of cannabis. This is our opportunity to put our money where
our mouth is. Join us in California by donating or volunteering for
the California Cannabis Initiative, [a group that] is working hard at
bringing the Tax, Regulate, and Control Cannabis Act of 2010 to the
ballot box.

Let's end this senseless war that has drained our local, state and
federal treasuries and has destroyed more families and lives than any
drug itself could have ever done. To join or help the fight go to
