LEGALIZING MARIJUANA ONLY WAY TO STOP ILLEGAL GROW-OPS SAYS READER
I'm writing about Jason Bain's story: "Grow ops pose many dangers:
Officer (4-9-08).
There is one way, and only one way, to stop illegal marijuana grow-ops.
Re-legalize marijuana so it can be sold in licensed and regulated

How many grow-ops grow tobacco--the kind that contains nicotine? Probably none.
Criminalize tobacco and the situation would soon change. Then tobacco
would be unregulated, untaxed and controlled by criminals - just like
marijuana is today.
