How do you feel about the U.S.
Supreme Court decision to
ban medical marijuana?
Well, / think it’s short sighted. They
shouldn 't just look at the law but the
benefits it gives the people. That ’s how
medicine started was with plants and they
are overlooking exploring other methods.
—Herb Jenkins
That’s not cool fo r people that seriously
need it. If you are just using it fo r your
own leisure than it’s not okay. But some
people need it because they may die or
become blind with out it.

—lyona Woods
I think that certain people need it for a
reason. I don’t agree with the government
taking away the use o f medical marijuana.
It helps when other painkillers don't work.
/ think marijuana is a benign drug.
-D o n Sinclair
I hope they reverse the law fo r cancer
patients so they can use marijuana as a
way to relieve their pain. I think it’s bogus
and / think it should be allowed fo r those
in pain. / think they should respect states
that legalize it fo r medicine.
—Sara Mahan
That’s terrible because people are
hurting with ailments and they need it.
It won't stop people from smoking
marijuana. It will be sad fo r those who
have to find it in non-legal ways.

Soldiers Ride
in Parade
Despite recently receivingatwo-
page rejection letter from Rose Fes
tival Association officials, the Buf
falo Soldiers were back in business
to participate in the Grand Floral
Parade Saturday, an event they’ve
been a part of since 1989.
Two soldiers rode horseback in
historic cavalry uniformsduringthe
parade.
In a meeting last week, the Rose
Festival apologized to the African
American veterans group, for not
working out a disagreement over
safety concerns.
In May, officials claimed terms
of safety had been violated by the
Buffalo Soldiers Moses William
Chapter in 2003, when horses
weren’t attended to properly dur
ing the parade. The soldiers refuted
theclaim.

Did you know that many STDs, such
as Gonorrhea and Chlamydia, often
have no symptoms? If left untreated,
they can lead to complications such
as PID (pelvic inflammatory disease),
tubal pregnancies, or even sterility
(in both men and women).
Visit Planned Parenthood for a full
range of affordable STD testing and
treatment options.
We gladly accept insurance.
