Until CA legalizes pot, this will continue.
Is that in the "unrepresented area of District 1"?
Seriously, you really think this will stop as soon as it is legal. All they want is free dope. It will always attract the criminals. It is not going to stop! I will get even worst.
How uneducated, DOPE? BOOZE? same tning, right?
