SELLS, Ariz. Authorities say the Tohono O'odham Reservation, which shares 76 miles of border with Mexico, is a favorite smuggling route for Mexican drug lords.Traffickers send their drugs - mostly marijuana - across the frontier on the backs of Mexican laborers and on horseback.
Authorities say it's not surprising smugglers are aided often by reservation residents who allow the contraband to be stashed on their property until the loads can be driven to the Tucson, Phoenix and Los Angeles areas.But U.S. Customs officers got a big surprise when they learned that a former tribal judge allegedly was mixed up in a smuggling operation.Mary Juan, who local law-.enforcement officials said vacated the bench more than a year ago, was arrested Friday on federal drug charges.Customs officers found 15 bales of marijuana in the trunk of her car and in a storage shed on her property. The seizure amounted to 350 pounds of pot.Click the above link to read the whole article!Some links are removed fairly quickly.It's best to read the article right away.

Here's another article which only confirms if something is made illegal, it drives up the price, and invites people to make easy money.It could be tobacco, whiskey, Quaaludes, MDMA, cocaine, methamphetamine, LSD, marijuana, opium, or a variety of items, which at one time or another were completely legal. Right now, May 18th, 1999, morphine, cocaine and methamphetamine are all schedule II compounds in the U.S., and CAN be prescribed by physicians. So where is the logic that these three drugs are in schedule II category, and marijuana is in category I, where it is forbidden under any circumstance? Something is terribly wrong folks, and we know it. We are tired of reading these articles, and we are tired of the same line of outrageous lies.We must stop the madness, we must vote pro-marijuana officials into office. Please vote, please get active. You can make a difference! Thanks FoM!!See link below.         Cheers,         Dr. Ganj
