CAN'T ELIMINATE GROW OPS

Editor:

Re: Eliminating grow-ops (letter in Jan. 4 issue of the Grand Forks Gazette)

It's commendable to stop people from stealing electricity but the
claim that it will "eliminate grow-ops" is ridiculous.

I believe the relatively safe, extremely popular, God-given plant
(see the first page of the Bible) cannabis (marijuana) is here for
the duration and one way or another, it will be cultivated and the
plant's demand will be met.

With or without stolen electricity, absolutely nobody is going
without cannabis who wishes to acquire it.

cannabis in the first page of The New American Bible.
