They (the pot traders and large growers who are destructive to the environment, and use potent pesticides-killers of all wildlife) want everything their own way all the time. Devaluation of our properties, our quality of life, the right to enjoy our own homes, as well as the safety of our children and grandchildren doesn't matter to them. They are not medi-pot advocates-they are money-pot advocates. And they couldn't care less what or who they harm. More petitions and referendums are circulating, or will be in the near future. Do not sign any of them. The last initiative on the ballot was confusing, badly written and misleading. We do not have enough water for our farms, let alone for the pot plants that use 10 gallons per day per plant. Bonnie Masarik Yankee Hill - --- MAP posted-by: Jo-D
