WHAT ARE WE TEACHING KIDS?
I read with interest the sad situation of a person getting robbed
because he was willing to sell his medicial marijuana.
Call me shocked, I thought everyone who got medical marijuana used it
for legitimate purposes and it was only to be used by the patient.
Yet, this person was willing to sell his medical marijuana to
teenagers, if there had not been a robbery, this never would have hit the news.
I have no doubt that many people get their so-called medical
marijuana from pot shops and turn around and sell it to people for
recreational use. Likewise, the police did not arrest and/or give a
citation for the criminal activity of selling an illegal
substance. What are we teaching our children? I only wish this
situation would have happened before the election.
I believe this would have changed the results of 1A on the ballot.
