MY MARIJUANA STAND

To the good citizens of Pittsfield: Just got back from town meeting, 
and this is what I tried to say.

1) Oregon, Colorado, Washington, Alaska and Washington, D.C., have 
allowed marijuana use. Pittsfield will not be outdone.

2) No one is going to the emergency room over marijuana in Pittsfield.

3) 223,671 Granite Staters  21 percent of adults, according to the 
state  use marijuana. There were 870,000 arrested for marijuana in 
this country, and last year 60 were serving life in prison. Makes me 
wanna puke. This is a civil rights issue.

4) The police have the power to lock us up. The people have to the 
power to protest.

I'm done with town meeting. The time has come to protest. See you on April 20.
