55 charged in raids on drug paraphernalia
Agents targeting Internet retailers
Organizations advocating the legalization of marijuana accused Ashcroft of grandstanding. ''At a time when the rest of the country is worried about terrorism, this attorney general is going after people who sell pipes,'' said Keith Stroup, the founder of the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws. ''Surely he has something better to do with his time.''
The government was obtaining court orders to shut down 11 Internet sites that peddle the paraphernalia, with visitors to those websites redirected to a DEA site that cites the law against sale of such items.
