THE REAL THREAT TO MEDICAL POT USER'S CHILDREN

Re: Social workers want help dealing with kids in grow-ops, Nov. 8

This article really irked me because I'm a legally licensed medical
marijuana user and producer who also has children. Not once has
anyone ever asked me if my children were in danger of exposure to
toxic chemicals and potential violence. They're not threatened by
toxic chemicals, but I fear they are under constant threat of
violence from home invaders. After being robbed twice and running
into strangers in my back yard at night on two separate occasions, I
am basically forced to keep a loaded gun close at hand.

It's time for the federal government to step up and help people like
me make sure that our growing environments are safe and secure.
