I’m biased because my mom was alcoholic and I’m very wary of any drug scene. A drug that is mildly hallucinogenic and that makes people slow and stupid is not harmless.

Those of us living in states where it has now been legal for years can attest to the fact that it has become big business and is causing great harm... especially to younger people and children. You can't drive around the block where we live without having your car filled with the skunk like foul odor of marijuana from the drivers in front of you. It is more than a nuisance... it has become a new definition of pestilence and is quickly becoming a grave threat to the future of this country as we decline into mediocrity.

You are wrong because you look only at marijuana and problems and statistics associated with it.

Everywhere marijuana has been legalized, marijuana has displaced alcohol and proven to be the lesser of two evils. The combined marijuana-alcohol accident and health statistics improve.

And if you say eliminate both evils, the result of that is worse than the problems you claim to want to fix.

Freedom is the right to sin and you can’t get past that.

Medical marijuana has been around a few years here in Florida & there is zero evidence of “great harm” being caused by it.

Seems you want to project the foolishness of Oregon onto the rest of the states.
