...just from pot but from hemp products as well - could solve major economic issues. I may have spent much of my high school years in a doobie-induced haze (mind you, I live a happily successful life now), but I do vaguely recall something from history class about the repeal of Prohibition and the subsequent taxation of liquor playing a significant role in our nation's recovery from the Great Depression.

A year after Columbine, Kentucky lawmakers agreed to repeal a law that two years before had given every preacher, priest or minister a special legal right to carry arms to the pulpit, with a handgun in the holster underneath the frock. Still, lawmakers refused to ban pistols completely from the pews. Instead, they left it up to churches to decide for themselves whether anybody, preacher or layman, can go to church carrying a piece...
