I'm sorry, perhaps I misunderstood your original intent, as I thought you had grouped anyone who might smoke pot into the same category as meth maggots and the like.

I am not a believer in all that conspiracy crap, for the most part. If anyone does the homework and reads the available data (even that from Lord knows how many Gov't studies) they will see that there is -0- reason the natural herb is not 100% legal for those over the age of 21 (21 is only my opinion, based on life experience and the fact that younger people do not always know where boundaries are in this and lifes other many endeavours).

No, I'm not a believer in those theories, this just was the only conclusion I can draw based on the facts in evidence that marijuana is proven over and over to be far safer a substance than alcohol, and it has no negative interaction with any other ingested substance, and in addition it has no lasting effects beyond those positive and beneficial health effects medical MJ users receive.

I do believe that the Federal Gov't and it's related Dept's (be it state or Federal), once control of marijuana was taken from the people, feel they have no option but to control the substance or look like fools for "the Gov't" making it illegal in the first place.

I'm no damn expert but I belive the reason it became illegal was the Government could not control it or regulate it at the time because it grew everywhere, wild. They eradicated what did exist in nature, and once that was done they had the upper hand. Prior to that time Cannabis was a major ingredient in dozens of the most popular medications of the time that existed and were used by doctors in ever office and hospital in the country.

Is there any other LOGICAL reason why the US Government feels they have a right to regulate by law that which naturaly occurs in our land, and is useful to society in so many ways and forms it takes volumes to get in print (not even mentioning the uses for Hemp and other by-products)?

I believe, from your "job" perspective and from seeing so much scum cross your path in the form of drunk drivers and meth maggots, etc. that it is perhaps sometimes more difficult to understand. My guess is you have met many a daily smoker and never even knew it due to the fact they are just regular old folks like the rest of the good people of America.

All the best to ya, and thanks for keeping us all safe.
