The following photo was posted on the Facebook wall of Rep. David Howard (R-HD-60). I’m not sure any further commentary is necessary.
Marijuana according to Rep. Dave Howard
It was posted along with this letter from Safe Community, Safe Kids.
SENATE BILL 423 IS WORKING.
Since it’s passing, the number of registered medical marijuana users has dropped from 30,000 to 8,849, the number of providers has dropped from 4,800 to 395, and many of the storefronts are disappearing. With the law imposing additional requirements for minors to obtain cards, there are now only 2 cards holders under the age of 18.
[ ]AGAINST Senate Bill 423, a bill which repeals I-148 and enacts a new medical marijuana program. A vote against Senate Bill 423 will restore I-148.
Stop the Pot Industry
Please SHARE with family and friends.
![Photo: The Montana Cannabis Industry Association has organized an effort to repeal SB423. </p>
<p>THE LANGUAGE FOR THEIR INITIATIVE, I-124, IS CONFUSING ON PURPOSE!! THIS IS TO TRICK YOU INTO VOTING AGAINST, WHICH IS VOTING FOR, AN UNCONTROLLED CRIMINAL ENTERPRISE. </p>
<p>The Legislature did not overturn the will of the people with SB423, instead they took medical marijuana back to what voters initially voted for. </p>
<p> SB423 effectively eliminates the FOR PROFIT CRIMINAL MARIJUANA industry that Montanans never voted for and do not want.SENATE BILL 423 IS WORKING.<br />

I know nothing about Howard’s Democrat opponent Jim Dickey, but I would have to guess that there isn’t anyone more ignorant in HD 60 than Rep. Howard. Please, voters. Do the right thing. Get this man out of our legislature.
montanafesto 
That racist, homophobic, preacher needs to have a massive heart attack,
Oh my goodness,you actually believe this? Have you actually ever met someone that smokes? Further,our country’s economy is going down the drain and THIS is what you’re worried about? Something that could actually benefit the economy?
I hope you are addressing Rep. David Howard and not montanafesto. I doubt many people believe such insane garbage, but the fact that a Montana legislator believes this needs to be publicized.
Wow I find it sad that Dave Howard has chosen to spread such ignorant garbage. Rather then take a little time to see if marijuana saves lives and spares many from needless suffering. I am confused, I have read many articles testifying to the medicinal value of marijuana. I am confused why have you not bothered? Could it be you just don’t care? Maybe you don’t believe the science. Maybe you think all these doctors are recommending cannabis are some how connected to organized crime and are raking in the big bucks. Please educate yourself before judging those who benefit from this life saving plant,
LIAR LIAR, PANTS ON FIRE. Just how stupid do you think people are? Certainly not as ignorant as you.
yes. we wrote it to be intentionally confusing. w the complicity of the secretary of state of MT. somebody needs a high school civics refresher. good thing this guy doesn’t have a job where he needs to know this silly gov’t stuff.
What a tool. He makes me wonder what sort of cache of underage porn or snuff films he has. Only a complete idiot would posses either of the 2 but after seeing this ridiculous image I’m guessing this idiot has some.
This is your enemy people. Know your enemy. Don’t think for one second that your enemy is stupid. They are cunning and very crafty, that’s how they obtained the power they wield now. You need to know everything you can about them. Better to have a ready reply on the tip of your tongue than to kick yourself later over what you’d wished you had said. You can’t stop, They won’t. You need to get your friends involved and voting. Tell them that even if they pay no attention to politics, politics will certainly pay attention to them. If we want government to reflect our values, then we need to be government.
This JERK is a MOUTH PIECE for the Pharmacutical Industry in a major way !!! Research it and you will see for yourselves !!! Uuuugghhh !!! What a LIAR and a SCUMBAG !!! =)
Seriously, this is all they have? Lies and conjecture, fear tactics designed to scare the bejeeziz out of uninformed people.
I am speechless.
Wait, this is an Onion story, right? ‘cuz it is too crazy to believe.
Evidently Howard has lived in a very sheltered life. This is so absurd it can’t even be addressed and what I’d really like to put down would have to be deleted.
Nigga you dumb, How are you gonna get aids by smoking weed, Is you stupid, Weed helps with aids it doesn’t give you aids. And how can you overdose, Have you ever heard someone overdosing, Fuck mayneee just kill your self. Ain’t no one gonna believe you .
If this wasn’t so true I’d be laughing to think MT legislators could be so caught up into themselves to actually think they can over-ride the will of the people.
Bye Bye Republicans, so sad, too bad, not the same Republicans I use to know and be a part of but if Howard is an example of what the party has become then “goodbye”.
Wow you stupid fuck. You can’t get aids from smoking… Aids lives and reproduces in blood and other body fluids such as Blood, Semen, Pre-seminal fluid “pre-cum”, Breast milk, Vaginal fluid, Rectal mucous.
Other body fluids and waste products like feces, nasal fluid, SALIVA, sweat, tears, urine, or vomit don’t contain enough HIV to infect you, unless they have blood mixed in them and you have significant and direct contact with them…
I guess you haven’t took sex education.
