The drug warriors know the American public is no longer behind them. The medical and scientific community is no longer behind them. LEAs are afraid they will lose funding - much of which is tied to the number of arrests they can make for marijuana possession.
So, yes, I wouldn't do anything like that - but I'm actually a really law abiding citizen anyway... I follow the speed limit, I recycle, I don't drink and drive (or drink much of anything, really), I vote, in every election... yeah, I'm such a criminal for supporting an end to the reefer madness.
When my kids were in elementary school, the school had a bazaar every spring before the school year was over. I've always loved to garden. So, I would start geraniums and sedum and other easily propagated plants indoors before the plant sale portion of the bazaar, and also dig up hostas and irises from my yard for the sale. One time an electrician was in my house and saw all my shelves with just simple florescent grow lights to start plants from cuttings. He said... growing marijuana? I laughed because the statement was so absurd. I hadn't used mj for the longest time, never thought about, unless someone brought it up and I said, "of course I think it should be decriminalized."
I don't start plants for the school sale anymore. My kids are long gone from elementary school. Dismantled my little indoor set up.
But if cannabis were legal to grow, I would definitely try it, just for curiosity as a gardner. But not while its considered more dangerous to grow cannabis than it is to manufacture meth.
