ENCOURAGING POT USE

Sen. Larry Campbell needs to think twice about what he might be
causing -- namely a higher rate of marijuana use.

If a bill to decriminalize small amounts of marijuana were to pass,
then no one would be afraid to smoke pot. Is that the message young
teens should be getting?

Do you want your son or daughter to smoke pot at the age of 15?

Personally, I would never smoke pot, but some of my friends do. And,
if a bill were to pass, they would be offering that pot to me and to
other teens like me.

Shouldn't we be worrying more about decreasing marijuana use rather
than encouraging it?
