MARIJUANA CAN BE SAFE

I am 65 years old, a widow of 11 years, with four grown children. I vote. I
pay my bills. I am a college graduate. In my 50 years of driving I've never
had a traffic violation. I've never been sued or slandered. However, with
the statement I'm about to make, the latter may occur.

I believe marijuana needs to be decriminalized in this country. I believe
medical marijuana needs to be available to all those, including myself, who
suffer from debilitating disease and pain. I believe every person who
agrees with me needs to stand up and be counted. Come out, come out,
whoever and wherever you are, to unite, educate and inform all that
marijuana is not an evil killer drug but simply safe herbal medicine.

"Abuse is not an argument against proper use" -- slogan used for (the
proposed) Arkansas Medical Marijuana Act. Join ARDPArk and/or the Drug
Policy Education Group today.
