Medical marijuana is already legal in Florida and seems to obtain approval is a low threshold and really just about the money for doctor fees.

For those who say it's a gateway drug well alcohol or any mind altering medication can also be a gateway drug.

Yea or Nay on Amendment 3 for marijuana legalization?
Moved from CO to get away from marijuana legalization. Ruined CO. It will ruin Florida. Medical marijuana was a "gateway drug" to eventually get recreational marijuana into states. It is the game the marijuana industry has followed in every state.
Maybe once all the states have legal marijuana the issues will not be as big of an impact with the crap that follows the legalization of marijuana.

Funny, we want to ban smoking, but yet we promote marijuana. Oxymoron in my opinion. Yes, you can eat marijuana, but most of the time it is smoked.....so why do we want to ban smoking tobacco if we are legalizing marijuana?

Of course, it is about the money. Something is only legal if you can tax it properly. Just ask Al Capone.
