APPALLED THAT MARIJUANA MASCOT IS AIMED AT KIDS

I am appalled ResponsibleOhio would use such a mascot to promote 
marijuana ("Meet Buddie: Marijuana mascot" Aug. 28).

We all know marijuana is a gateway drug. You are encouraging this 
illegal substance by using this mascot.

We don't need our young ones high and going around like zombies and 
ruining their lives

You know it is geared to our young children. You mention that in the 
article by sending Buddie to college campuses. This is disgusting, 
not creative and exciting as stated.

Then it mentions creating 10 marijuana farms. The Enquirer previously 
mentioned the 10 farms that were bought. This should have been a 
lottery to keep things fair. ResponsibleOhio is the most 
irresponsible organization ever.
