I'm sure that many marijuana growers and sellers are thankful to the Davis Metro Narcotics Strike Force, the David County Sheriff's Office, the Centerville Police Department and the Drug Enforcement Administration for this latest marijuana eradication effort and others like it. Without operations like 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 growers, sellers or traffickers arrested will soon be replaced. They always are. Kirk Muse Mesa, Ariz. - --- MAP posted-by: Richard Lake
