SUPERVISORS SHOULD PUSH FOR LEGALIZATION

Regulation of cannabis in Butte County will remain not just 
unpleasant, but impossible, until the federal government relents on 
its prohibition.

The most effective thing our Board of Supervisors could do, in the 
interest of the general welfare of our citizens, would be to petition 
the federales for change. Change as in legalization. With one voice, 
the board should tell them to get out of our way, we are trying to do 
some regulation here.

Another approach might be to place such an issue on a future ballot.
