WE NEED MORE PEOPLE LIKE WAHL

I am glad that Larry Wahl is a friend of mine. He has many traits 
that I admire. He is a decorated military veteran who is proud to 
have served his country. He is a good, honest, decent man who has a 
backbone of steel. He has the guts to stand up for his convictions 
even though they may ruffle the feathers of some who would impose 
their will on others if not for men like him. He has been a beacon of 
light on many occasions as a solid supporter of those of us who are 
swimming against the tide of liberalism that is rapidly accelerating 
the deterioration of our nation.

Larry has solidly stood his ground for many who have and will 
certainly become victims of marijuana growers whose goals are to 
grow, smoke or sell their product, one that our federal government 
says is illegal to do so.

This product, which produces a nasty stench that does not stop at a 
fence line, has to be guarded by vicious dogs and armed growers, can 
be grown by our next-door neighbor because his rights trump yours and 
you have no recourse. It doesn't matter that your rights are violated 
because his are more important.

If the residents of our town had the same moral fiber and compass 
that Larry Wahl has, we would be living in a much better and safer 
community. I wish we had more like my friend, who I will support to the end.
