MEDICAL MARIJUANA PATIENTS WON; FOWLE'S OFFICE LOST

Short letter in response to Evert Fowle's comments regarding the
medical marijuana trial recently held in Superior Court in Skowhegan.

We, patient and provider, won; Fowle's office lost.

Fowle says, "it's past time to overhaul the medical marijuana
law."

That's one thing he might be right about; it could use a good
overhaul, but for the medical patients benefit, not his. It is 9
years old and was improved once, ever so slightly, a few years ago by
increasing the amount of marijuana patients can possess from 1 1/4
ounces to 2 1/2 ounces. We should be allowed at least a month's
supply like any other medicine, but that's another subject.

Fowle would like to get rid of the law but he can't because the
people voted this one in.

But, just like always, as soon as we figure out the answers. they
want to change the questions.

Well, Fowle can't change a thing concerning the medical marijuana law
as "We the People" voted it in, unless he would like to help us make
it better?
