POT SMUGGLING CONTINUES

A huge marijuana bust: They found a tunnel going under the Mexico-San
Diego border. Over 24 tons of the stuff, worth millions. And the day
after our elections.

My, my, what a fortunate coincidence. Tell me again how Proposition 19
would not have impacted smuggling from Mexico and how making cannabis
legal and regulating it won't work? Police, prosecutors and a whole
industry of federal, state and local government workers and
bureaucrats will continue the insanity as they feed off our tax
dollars and cry out that they are overworked and need more.

California voters got bamboozled on Nov. 2. The failure of Proposition
19 will cost the state millions. Marijuana needs to be controlled and
taxed. Marijuana needs to be legalized.
