look in the "More like this story" and see how much young men we are arresting for a plant.

The police know where every "dope shop", some are less than 400 feet from the police station.

In a "Christian" nation where we believe God created everything in nature for us but some how this plant (that has medicinal benefits) is illegal.

We're throwing money away for a plant
