YES ON A TO STOP BUTTE COUNTY'S DOWNWARD SLIDE

There are lots and lots of signs around town. In fact, the whole 
county has gone sign crazy. Anyone else sick of them? I know I am - 
especially the ones put up by the pot traders. They say, "Yes on B, 
protect your property rights." What a load of bunk. Measure B is all 
about pot and not about property rights. They (the pot traders) will 
tell you anything.

Measure B has been crafted by the pot industry, and funded by big 
money from San Fransisco and Los Angeles. They don't care about 
anyone's "rights" as long as the big money from the drug (pot) 
pushers keeps rolling in.

Vote no on B - B stands for bad.

Where do you think all the crime is coming from in Chico? You're not 
living in Mayberry anymore. It's from the large "legal" grows in the 
foothills. If you don't think it's affecting your life, think about 
all the robberies, assaults, home burglaries, stolen cars ... and to 
what end? To get money to buy pot, of course. It's not being given 
away. Vote no on B and kick the crime out of Chico and Butte County.

Vote yes on A. Measure A does protect families' rights, property 
values, safety and health, and our water and environment. Let's take 
back our neighborhoods, towns and beautiful county.
