MASON CITY – Three people were arrested last week after police were called about the trio smoking marijuana.

Police then spoke to the occupants and secured the location while they applied for a search warrant. Once the warrant was signed by a judge, officers served the warrant and located controlled substances and drug paraphernalia.
Three people were charged with crimes.

How many $billions$ do we have to spend before (they) come up with a cure. We can go the the moon and back, but it seems that someone is putting up a smoke screen for the cure.
Oh lord, the humanity! POT! POT! POT!
Iowans want you to have the choice of liver damage or cancer sticks. Pot? Oh, say it ain’t so! No, not POT!
I agree. Pot is VERY addictive and is known to kill children and cause aggressive behavior. We need this drug erased from the earth quickly so our children will be safe. I am very glad we have the DARE program and police like Sheriff Pals who fight to remove this drug from our streets.
Bad plant! Go away bad plant! I don’t care if it cures cancer, it’s too late to change now and admit we were all fooled and lied too. We don’t want to look dumb and so pot is bad. Go away bad plant! Just go away, God didn’t want you here.
There you go again with that false, unproven claim of curing cancer. Billions of dollars are spent in cancer research, by the most reputable clinics, hospitals, and universities around the world, but YOU already have the cure.
As I have said before, all you are doing in reality is trying to justify your illegal behavior.
You smoke pot long enough and with your newly dead brain cells it feels like you just cured cancer.
Come on Tonya-go smoke a joint and have a heart attack. That is proven.
Get off it Tonya before you end up back in jail again. None of what you prattle on about has been proven but it has been proven that smoking pot can and will kill you by stopping your heart. And that includes eating it. Now, do us all a favor and go smoke another joint.
