Do you march and attend fundraising events in support of research to develop cures and treatments? If you do, you give of your funds and your time because you care about those you might help. There are folks in Butte County who need the same type of help. We are cannabis patients. We have all sorts of conditions that "big pharma" has been unsuccessful in treating effectively and we have turned to cannabis. We're your parents, siblings, your doctor, nurse, lawyer, store owner, etc. Since the implementation of Measure A, I will not have access to the cannabis I need and am entitled to possess under California's Proposition 215. The Butte County Board of Supervisors are working very diligently to make life harder for the very patients in Butte County that this proposition was designed to help and protect. Prohibition = failure. - - Anne Murphy, Chico - --- MAP posted-by: Jay Bergstrom
