MARIJUANA KILLS

As a Toronto police officer, it is with the greatest sadness that I
read about the four fallen officers in Alberta. My deepest condolences
go out to families, friends and co-workers of the slain officers. When
are the government and the people of this great country going to take
their heads out of the sand? The lax laws in this country have caused
the proliferation of these grow houses and decriminalizing or
legalizing marijuana is only going to make matters worse. When are
politicians going to realize that marijuana is a drug and criminals
operating grow houses will defend their drugs with deadly force? How
many other people, police and civilians alike, are going to have to
die before people realize that marijuana kills?
