The Daily Press, 31 Oct 2012 – EDITOR: Now, I don’t know who the mayor pro tem of the city of Escanaba is, but I can truly say that this man sounds like a political "sound bite". In the Oct. 19 edition of the Daily Press, the front page headline read: "Council: Change medical pot law." Mayor Pro-Tem Brady Nelson has been spearheading changes to the Medical Marijuana Act because he is concerned about "marijuana use in Escanaba and its’ contribution to the local drug problem"; he’s concerned about "public safety and the affects of drug abuse such as violence, damage and break-ins." This all sounds a little like the 1930’s film: "Reefer Madness!" He went on to say that "local marijuana concerns include break-ins at legal growers and pot smoke going into other’s airspace including a day care" (according to Public Safety).
