Judging from this blog, nobody ever comments about the Everglades Posts, or maybe they just think it's over their heads. News Flash! The Everglades is far more important than your lousy hotel, all of you survivalists with weeds and overgrown trees covering your houses. Where would you be if you hadn't found Lake Worth to hide out in where you could live like pigs, and nobody with any authority to evict you.
And that folks,is why we should NEVER legalize Marijuana.
