GET THE TRUTH BEHIND MARIJUANA

Marijuana myths are out of control. Prohibition has always put money
into the pockets of criminals. The prohibition of marijuana has made
it the "gateway drug" it is today. Parents should know that it's much
easier to call a friend to buy weed than it is to find a stranger to
buy alcohol. The problem is drug dealers often sell more than just
marijuana.

Marijuana has numerous medicinal uses while alcohol just kills and
destroys lives. Society has it backwards. This is the system we've
created. Teaching our children the truth doesn't mean we have to
glorify the drug.
