Its underlying ideology is one of fear, envy, greed and hate. Never have so many been endangered and impoverished by so few, so quickly! Do you wish to greatly reduce, even almost eliminate the market in illegal narcotics? Then please help us to dismantle prohibition enabling us to legalize, regulate and tax! Do you wish to bring about an enormous reduction in the presence and influence of organized crime? Then please help us to dismantle prohibition enabling us to legalize, regulate and tax! Do you wish to reduce harm to the existing users and addicts - who may be your children, brothers, sisters, parents or neighbors - by allowing them safe and controlled legal access, which will greatly minimize the possibility of "peer-initiation" and sales to minors? Then please help us to dismantle prohibition enabling us to legalize, regulate and tax! Sign CI-110 to help stop this madness. Josh Daniels Billings - --- MAP posted-by: Jay Bergstrom
