On Wednesday October 6, 2010 it was found 42 pounds of loose buds of marijuana. The marijuana was situated in Brimfield, Portage County. Agents from the Portage County Drugs Task Force and the DEA with Portage County sheriff’s deputies followed an access road into the woods just west of the 3000 block of Ranfield Road. The police found that the marijuana was in a public recreation area and reservoir owned by the city of Akron. In the area the suspect was a Hispanic who lived in a tent camouflage by brush next to the field. The marijuana had a value of $788,000. It grew from 8 to 10 inches long. According to the drugs task commander Pat Burns people who cultivate this kind of plants don’t grow it in their own land but in public areas.
The Obama administration urged a federal judge on Thursday to let the military press on with its "don't ask, don't tell" ban on gays serving openly in the military. Still, President Barack Obama insisted the policy should end. The “don’t ask, don’t tell” policy is a military policy that prohibits open gays from serving in the military. Their superiors aren’t aloud to question their sexuality but members can be thrown out for talking about being gay. I believe that this policy should be banned because it is unconstitutional to treat people different because of how they choose to live.
