To anon actually Pot itself is not bad for you it's how it's grown that get's ya . The government has put such a bad rep on it since the alch. ban has been lifted because they can't regulate it as easy as cigs and alc. There are way more benifit's to it than the your prescribed drugs out there . If you get pot in its purist form you won't get addicted to it like any other priscription or other non legal drug out there. but go ahead and beleave the fedral regulated doc's out there that make money off of big wig corp's to push THEIR pill popping ways.

Even though alot of people in Madison consider Pot a daily multivitamin, it's not good for you. You don't believe me? Go to your doctor now, today! Tell them you smoke pot every day. Don't take time to look for some stoner Dr, go to Dean or some health care provider. See what they tell you.

I agree, why are we wasting time on these small time grow op's. These people were probably growing for there own personal use and not hurting anyone. Let's focus on the real criminals. Alcohol, hard drugs, and prescription drugs are a lot more harmful than good ol' mother nature.

I believe that we have bigger fish to fry in this area then such a small pot growing operation... Let's find the people that are robbing all of these stores and find the people that are selling the pills that are killing 13 yr old little boys... Or the heroin dealers that should be held responsible for the 5 deaths and multiple hospitalizations for over doses. Pot is not the problem...
