your question, mr. Reeferseed?

>> well, thank you.
I just wanted to -- it was a comment that I think we would all -- we could -- they are doing great work and I admire the stuff that -- the leadership from our county on this issue generally speaking as a law enforcement issue, but we can do so much more when we just pay attention to people like dr. Ron paul and ignore the present administration's efforts to continue the -- the punishment phase.
and so I -- it's a way to comment we're on the right track, but we need to even do more along those lines.
so not a lot on substance, but we can be proud generally speaking here in Travis County, but we need to fight the war on pot smokers even harder because it's counterproductive.

>> move approval.

>> anything further?

>> that's it.
thanks.

>> motion by Commissioner hooker to approved, seconded by Commissioner Davis.
discussion on the motion?
