Any proof that hemp will influence children, to do what exactly? Prohibitionists lie when they don't have anything else to say. Which is all the time.

No proof at all. Drug warriors have long since lost credibility with children; in part because the drug warriors like to feed the kids speed for their ADD while at the same time insisting that hemp is worse than crack or meth.

Mixed messages to kids! Where does North Dakota rank in regard to drunkenness ? Here's what should be taught for better health Wernicke's encephalopathy and WKS is most commonly seen in people who are alcoholic, and only 20% of cases are identified before death. This failure in diagnosis of WE and thus treatment of the disease leads to death in approximately 20% of cases, while 75% are left with permanent brain damage associated with WKS.[2] Of those affected, 25% require long-term institutionalization in order to receive effective care or commonly known as...... WET BRAIN. Younger folks know that booze is a more dangerous drug than pot.I've witnessed the adults at family gatherings with a table full of beer cans lecture the teen on the wrongs of weed.I'm seventy one and have always realized that hypocrisy ...KIDS KNOW! Let's stop pretending !

Hey, I lived up there through a winter and believe me, if you take away the alcohol, they will freeze up and bust like an old engine block without anti-freeze. After experiencing the Dakotas in the winter, death by cirrhosis of the liver is surly the better option, though cannabis would make it less painful.

Some of those Conservative "Red States" or districts suffer high rates of out of control booze and heroin consumption . So in the dead heat of Summer many meet their end .Rare for one who only uses cannabis.

Of course they damn should.

I'm 70 years old and I learned about government drug war lies and propaganda in 1972. I learned about hemp in the early 80s. It still grows wild along highways in Missouri. It looks like Cannabis, smells like Cannabis and after 20 hits in my favorite bong, I got nothing. Kids probably know more than politicians and if they think they can get high by smoking hemp, I can assure you they will not. If Ms. Howell would sit down a smoke a little hemp, she would understand. Unfortunately she will choose to stay stupid. It's the first sign of drug war Nazi's.

Looks like you were in the right place at the right time with the right song!

would send mixed messages to youth who officials are trying to warn about the dangers of illegal drugs

That's all they've got; the flaccid argument that there are dangers because it's illegal.

Plant It Everywhere. The danger here is that the children will find out that idiots run the government and even worse, they demand obedience to their willfully ignorant thoughts, words and laws.
