TALKING POT

Thanks to measure A and the voters of Butte County, we had a nice, 
peaceful year since its activation. Drive-by shootings, home invasion 
robberies and gang activity are all down. The greatest plus was that 
one could enjoy a peaceful fall evening outside without the skunk 
odor of maturing marijuana plants. I would like to continue to enjoy 
these rights.

Measure H is needed to assist in enforcing Measure A.

Marijuana is not an agriculture crop. Ag crops are healthy products 
like vegetables and fruit. Marijuana is a mind-altering drug. 
Medically, it doesn't cure any disease. It might make one feel better.

Measures G and H are necessary for a safer community. Measure G does 
not allow marijuana growers to claim agriculture rights. As long as 
the federal government makes marijuana illegal, it is an illegal 
crop. Breaking the law makes one a criminal. Figure it out.
