z <br /> You have heard the fantasy, I beg now, you hear the face <br /> The helicopter flights, which testimony would have you believe is akin to <br /> living under the flight path at O'Haze, occur no more than 35 days a year! <br /> That is 3S days, out of 365! <br /> You have heard that the Police have been aerial spraying herbicides- It is no <br /> longer done, and has not been done, in well over two yeazs. Ask the cops. <br /> Also ask the cops about "education-" Because that is what a portion of this <br /> money is used for! <br /> Policing, which includes "narcotics enforcement" is something the County <br /> pays for. We pay the salaries of the cops (see the budget). The Federal Tax <br /> Money we receive, the vast majority of it, goes to Police. watzes. If we do not <br /> take it, Property Tax will pay it. Policing, narcotics enforcement, goes on in <br /> any case. The CHOICE is: It's Federal Tax, or County Tax! <br /> A little history. <br /> Back in the `60's and 70's law enforcement was going after "users" and <br /> those who would indulge in a bit of tok'n (if caught) were criminals. <br /> "If caught, includes Clinton, Gore and Gingrich. " <br /> Law enforcement decided to shift the focus. To go after the suppliers, <br /> manufactwes and Bowers. To go after those who were supplying dope in <br /> the Business of supplying dope; hence, the eradication effort. <br /> Let us make no mistake, those growing dope, are in the Business of <br /> supplying dope. Eradication has caused a price increase, because it has #1. <br /> reduced supply and #2. increased risk. lt'S wOrk'n! <br /> Consider this: No average person wakes up one morning and says, "Gee! <br /> I've never teed drugs, I think I'll mainline some Heroin today and see what <br /> it's like" Ask any junkie, they all started with "pot." No non-drinker <br /> wakes up one morning and decides to polish off a quart of Jack Daniels. <br /> They started with a bottle of beer, or a glass of wine. <br /> For those adults who use pot, they will find a way to afford their vice. Such <br /> is the way of the world. A smoker can always find the bucks for a pack of <br /> smokes, the drunk a few dollars for some hooch, and the doper enough cash <br /> for a high. The adult, with even a serious pattern of marijuana use, can grow <br /> more than an adequate supply of pot, in a closet with a grow lamp, for their <br /> own use, with little or no risk of getting caught. It is the kids, OUR <br /> CHILDREN, who can not afford the high price of these various vices. <br /> <br /> 20~39tid Z62E696 ~O1 ~BSL-2CS-BBB ~d1N~W0'JI~N~ b3M3bB~W0?J~ B~~Bi z5 ~i-Nl~f <br /> <br />
