Police arrest 2 fifth-graders on drug charges - WTHR | Indianapolis

Two fifth graders were arrested for dealing marijuana and possession of marijuana in Indianapolis. Parents from the area are shocked, one said "Why does your child have drugs? That's crazy." The reason kids have access to drugs, even at 10 and 11 is that drug dealers (real dealers not a couple of punk kids trying to be gangsta) don't care if they sell it to a 10 year old or a 20 year old, cash in hand is all they require.

I have said it many times, but I think it is worth saying again, if you want to keep marijuana out of the hands of kids the ONLY to do this with any sort of effectiveness is to legalize and regulate marijuana. Currently kids report having a much easier time getting their hands on marijuana than alcohol. With proper controls in place and hefty fines on stores that sell marijuana to underage kids marijuana use amongst kids will plummet.
