Ask The Mayor

Q. - How can you and the city of Terrell allow the store Hippie Exspress to operate and sell to our children poison that is killing them and putting them in the hospital? I have sat and watched day after day kids go in and out of there and sit and smoke that trash right out front. Something needs to be done and now.

Answer - Thanks for your inquiry.

 

It is pathetic that someone would be willing to sell a product knowing that the way it will be used is dangerous. This situation is even worse because most of the purchasers are probably young people taking risks with their health.

 

I had a similar “Ask the Mayor Question” in December of 2011. You can see it by going to this link.

 

I encourage all Texans to contact their State Representative and State Senator and voice their concern. There has been legislation regarding K2 but perhaps they can find a way to attack the bigger problem.

Sincerely,

 

Hal Richards, Mayor
