END PROHIBITION

Editor: Prohibition is the most dangerous thing about pot.

When was the last time you heard about a shootout over booze, saw a
kid buy alcohol from a street vendor or heard of moonshiners cooking
brew in the hills?

A yes vote means squatters growing pot in our national forest and
shootouts at pot gardens will disappear just like the 21st Amendment
did to violence in 1933.

People can purchase pot from a store or grow a few plants in their
backyard.

Adults need to teach children the virtues of moderation and danger of
gluttony. It's time to put first things first and end the prohibition
against pot by passing Proposition 19.
