To not understand the pain-relieving properties of marijuana and the justification in growing for personal use is a prime example of stupidity. People who grow for personal use are not your threat. The major suppliers with people selling on the street are the problem.
The amount of time and money spent on the personal-need grower is a waste. The task force should be spending its time working on busting the major suppliers and the meth suppliers, and let's not forget those pushing prescriptive meds on the street.
But, perhaps that is too much of a challenge and that is why they spend the time busting the small individual grower. Get real, people.
