AMENDMENT WOULD PROTECT THE ILL

As a Christian, I supported Colorado Amendment 20, legalizing
cannabis (kaneh bosm/marijuana) for sick citizens, and the law works
properly to protect sick citizens from being discriminated against by
government.

Colorado's medical cannabis law is the only one in America that is a
constitutional amendment (R-E, June 7).

One benefit of Colorado's law is due to it being written in the
state's Constitution because it protects citizens by not allowing
government to change, dilute or rewrite the law.

Gov. Tim Pawlenty's veto of a compassionate bi-partisan bill
permitting terminally ill patients to use cannabis to ease their pain
is unacceptable. Letting voters decide on a constitutional amendment
to protect sick citizens is the appropriate next step and the right
thing to do.

Further, one reason to stop caging sick humans who use cannabis that
doesn't mentioned is because it's biblically correct since Christ God
our father, the ecologician, indicates he created all the
seed-bearing plants, saying they are all good, on literally the very
first page.
