SACRAMENTO, CA (Borderland Beat) – California Attorney General Xavier Becerra and U.S. Attorney and Eureka native McGregor Scott said during a news conference last week that they want to “redouble” efforts to eradicate illegal marijuana grows and pesticide use on public lands that are ravaging the environment and putting the general public at risk.

While the stance on cannabis’ legality drastically differs between the state and federal governments, the two attorneys said illegal grows and pesticide use on public lands is banned by both governments and will serve to benefit the public if eliminated through cooperation.

Ok, this may not be a popular solution..... but..... how about if states allowed individuals to grow a small amount/supply of their own pot.....

Wouldn't that put these pot-growing cartels out of biz?

Isn't that what legalized marijuana was already supposed to do?

I believe in California an individual can grow their own.

It's an export crop, so I doubt that would have much effect. But in a sanctuary state, it's harder to get rid of the cartels.
