To violate federal drug laws is not a ballot choice matter, any more than illegal production of heroin or cocaine in Butte County would be. The only logical, reasonable choice is "one nation, one law" for equal rights to all Americans. We are 50 united states, not 50 individual, opposing countries. Email your congressional representatives to repeal federal marijuana laws and legislate one nation, one law, for all today. Stick a federal tax stamp on them baggies, plus state and local taxes, and help lower the national deficit too. - - Phil Foto, Magalia - --- MAP posted-by: Jay Bergstrom
