Laquayla Morris of Booneville donned a marijuana leaf outfit on E. Van Buren last Sunday to encourage passersby to stop and sign a pro marijuana petition to fully legalize the herb and decriminalize the selling and possession of marijuana. There are currently three petitions circulating in Arkansas dealing with different levels of decriminalization. Arkansans For Compassionate Care turned in 117,000-plus petition signatures to the Secretary of State Monday to have the medical cannabis initiative placed on the November ballot.
