I do support marijuana in the pill form, but not the smoking form. I would never even consider a "Medicine" that you smoke.

Hi in Washington and Oregon, the Medical weed got started as a door opener. Prescription only.

Well the program went on, anyone could get it because any legal user could and did give it to friends and non friends, just set up their own dispensary so to speak. We do know a person, a great guy, who actually jumped through the hoops to get authorized as a medical "grower and shipper". He made a lot of money, he also ruined his health, battered his wife and children and lost his other gardening related business. He is now in jail for battery and illegally selling the stuff. I know his father well. His father just revised his will and trust to exclude and disown him. Weed really impacted his life for sure, we saw it first hand folks, not hearsay. He loved to smoke it.

So it grew and grew into the monster it is today, outrageous.

I do not believe that medical marujuana is smoked. I have only heard of it in pill form or possibly in precise doses in some foods - but not leaf form for rolling and smoking.

I voted NO.

Agreed. Legislate if you must, but NO to CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT.

Most comments have been said.... why do we need another abuser (which will happen even one more) cross that center line in a vehicle
and now becomes our problem... both our own hurts and now we have to rehab the violators of which the court will order for sure.

ABSOULUTELY NO!

This medical marijuana stuff is such a hoax. Those Morgans from the Law Firm were all salivating over something last time it was on the ballot and I doubt very much that it was getting some medical marijuana for John Morgan's brother. Forgive me if I am skeptical. Any 15 year old could tell you how to get marijuana. I just think the medical marijuana stores are like a whole lot more bars, enabling folks to get all glassy eyed and high. And make a lot of people a LOT of money, legally. Not against making money, but not crazy about causing more folks to get so they don't want to work today.

I say call a spade a spade.

I hope that isn't politically incorrect.

Like other illnesses there certainly are many other options available. However those who seek profits from marijuana mislead by shining a light on this one option.

Too many voters are not doing their due diligence and we should have all learned the consequences when the Speaker stated "we have to pass it to know what's in it." Well I know what's in this ballot and its a path way to legal recreational use I will never lend my support and the last 8 years have demonstrated that our governments are corrupt to the core

Its all about the huge amounts of money to be made.

I agree 100%. Also to so many returning vets who are having pain mental and physical. So much better than Doctors pushing pills they are getting paid to push.

[daveczo]

Disagree respectfully. I think you legalize it completely and tax it. Yes, any 15 and many 65 year olds can tell you where you can score pot. So legalize and tax.

[blyarbrough]

There is a reason it's not legal.....I voted NO 4 years ago and will vote NO today. If Morgan and Morgan is for it, as they are, then you should be aganist it.

So, in your opinion...what is the reason?

In addition, what is the reason that alcohol is legal...and marijuana isn't?

And, why are pain pills legal (with a prescription)...but pot isn't?

Reasonable questions IMHO.
