HIGHER EDUCATION ACT 'DISCRIMINATORY' TO DRUG USERS
It is commendable to fix prejudicial elements of the Higher Education
Act ( "Drug Conviction Denies Students Financial Aid," Mar. 1, 2007 ),
since the government's war on drugs primarily targets cannabis plant users.
Do students lose financial aid if caught with alcohol?
Further discrimination exists because students convicted of murder or
rape, are still eligible for financial aid in school.
Government's attempts to persecute, prohibit and exterminate cannabis
( kaneh bosm/ marijuana ) is luciferous to begin with since Christ God,
Our Father, indicates He created all the seed-bearing plants, saying
they are all good, on literally the very first page of the Bible ( see
Genesis 1:11-12 and 29-30 ).
This provision of the Higher Education Act is bad law and should be
amended or terminated.
Stan White Dillon, Colo.
Editor's note: Some types of rape and murder are considered felonies,
and students who have been convicted of a felony are not eligible to
receive financial aid.
