Brooklyn ‘Pot For Kids’ Author To Appear On Court TV

Brooklyn’s Ricardo Cortes, author of It’s Just a Plant, a children’s marijuana book, is set to appear tonight on CourtTV’s Catherine Crier Live at 5:30PM EST, in a debate with Curtis Sliwa. As AnimalNY points out, coverage of the controversial book continues to grow despite being published over a year ago.

We’ll see if Cortes can mellow out Sliwa like he did Bill O’Reilly a few month’s back.
