The Oregonian, 12 Mar 2013 – The Oregonian’s editorial about cash-strapped timber counties overlooked an obvious source of revenue ("Light for forest counties," March 8). Law enforcement officials and The Oregonian have focused attention on Oregon as a "marijuana producing" state, conflating the sending of Oregon homegrown cannabis out of state into a public safety problem. The solution, of course, is the creation of a regulated market for sales of Oregon-grown cannabis to adults here in Oregon.
