MARIJUANA IS DESTROYING OUR NEXT GENERATION
We as voters in 2004 approved medical marijuana in Montana. We were
duped! The pot smokers knew we would fall for the compassion pitch for
the elderly and deathly sick. Their plan worked perfectly, because now
pot is legal for anyone of any age to get on every street corner.
It is next to our schools and churches. It is destroying our next
generation of children and grandchildren. Our children now think pot
is medicine and legal, because everyone is doing it. Don't believe me,
ask your teachers and kids.
What kind of community do we want to live in? Pot houses, tattoo
parlors, and casinos on every corner. This is not why we moved our
seven children to Montana 18 years ago. We moved away from big-city
crime, drugs and violence to a clean, beautiful, moral Montana with
great schools. Our seven children our grown and doing well because
Montanans believe in strong families and great drug-free schools. I am
scared to death of what my grandchildren, the next generation of
Zabawas, are going to have to deal with.
If marijuana is a medicine, let the FDA, pharmacists, Walgreens and
doctors who have been trained on marijuana hand it out to citizens who
need the medicine. The state will never be smart enough to outfox pot
smokers.
Montanans need to get behind the repeal bill in the Senate and
eliminate medical marijuana.
Make Montana a place we want to be proud of.
