Pro-Marijuana Group Issues $10K Challenge

[Jim Finnel]

LAS VEGAS -- Pro-marijuana advocates will rally in at University Medical Center in Las Vegas Wednesday in an effort to prove the drug is safer than alcohol.

The Marijuana Policy Project of Nevada, a group seeking to end what it calls “marijuana prohibition” and reduce criminal penalties for using the drug, is also kicking off its “$10,000

Challenge” event.

The group said will pay $10,000 to anyone who can disprove three statements that demonstrate marijuana is safer than alcohol.

Cash will not be on display; instead organizers will showcase a mock check for $10,000.

A true test of the population in Las Vegas.
But it doesn't get the attention it should.
As someone who is from Las Vegas, i feel it would be more prudent to actually have a poll, but history has shown that what the majority want isn't always what they get.
