kinda sad that these people were minding their own business, not bothering anyone else, and were punished for it. nobody called the cops out there. These people were enjoying camping. Prosecuting people out camping for SMALL amounts of marijuana for personal use is a waste of taxpayers’ money. Somebody also please explain to me how poisonous plants existing somehow negates the fact that marijuana is natural, safe and harmless. It’s a logical fallacy to counter that argument with “well, there are other plants that ARE deadly!” Clearly, the anti-marijuana people are running out of arguments and are grasping at straws.

Yep–makes perfect sense that possession of a plant’s trimmings turns you into a criminal, doesn’t it? Har, dee-har, har.

And for those who are going to say “Then change the law”–don’t worry, we’re getting very close.

@Kane, @Kinda sad : You’re right. Cocaine, heroin and hashish are all processed derivatives, processed from natural plants right frommthe ground. But, also right from the ground are oleander, hemlock, belladona (nightshade flower), poison oak, poison ivy, and a host of others. The argument that it is “natural” and “from the ground” has nothing to do with whether it is harmless. Regardless, it is illegal, and creates an entire criminal segment of our population. Way to be thorough, Lieutenant Hahr and Officer Lewis! Makes enjoying camping possible for us non-druggies and our families.

@kane. If your point is that pot should be legalized, maybe so. But nature produces many deadly toxins that can kill you in their everyday form (foxglove, oleander, nightshade). So the “natural is good” argument is a silly one.

Kind of sad that a family can’t go there without encountering people using drugs.

Heroine and cocaine do NOT come from a plant in the ground anymore than Coca-Cola does. Heroine and Cocaine are PROCESSED and chemically altered to get the final products. Cannabis you can pick off the plant and smoke right then and there or eat it.

@ Kinda sad when you can’t enjoy a plant that comes from the ground. : /

Herione comes from a plant in the ground. So does cocaine.

Even sadder that people are continually caught breaking the law with little consequence.
