MARIJUANA REPEAL: RESPECT THE WILL OF THE VOTERS
All I can say is that if the elected bozos in Helena do repeal the
medical marijuana bill, passed by an overwhelming majority of Montana
voters, I for one will show up at the state House in Helena with my
card and my ounce of marijuana and demand to be arrested and tried by
a jury of my peers.
If 28,000 of my fellow patients follow suit we will bring the
"justice" system in Montana to its knees.
Voters in 2010 went to the polls and expressed their dissatisfaction
with the economy, not abortion, not gay marriage and not gun control.
The back-door moves to legislate moral issues will not be forgiven by
the voters. We are worried about jobs, not what our neighbors are
doing in the privacy of their own homes and bodies.
Call your legislators and urge them to respect the will of the voters.
Also, a call to the governor to veto this if needed would be a good
idea.
P.S. I just spoke with several family members and friends. Should it
come to that, at least three of them would go to Helena with me and we
will split up my stash, giving them more expensive cases to fight.
