MEDICAL-MARIJUANA FOES SHOULDN'T USE TERRORISM
It is very upsetting to me that those against medical marijuana have
resorted to violence and destruction. Many people disagree on many
things, but for those against medical-marijuana patients and
caregivers and who are responsible for these terrorist-type
activities, I believe you have committed a hate crime against a certain group.
Parents of school-age children against medical marijuana are
apparently confused and unable to understand certain aspects of this
business. Medical marijuana is for patients, and they are the only
ones who can purchase it from a designated caregiver. Are your
children able to walk into a pharmacy and buy prescription drugs?
Are your children able to purchase alcohol at the liquor store? The
answer would be no. It is most likely far easier for them to get it
at school illegally.
Perhaps those who are against this (who also happen to be the
minority) should focus on some of the illegal activities going on
right behind their backs and leave those who wish to be legal and
upfront about what they are doing alone. It is time that those
against this (the minority) realize that this is something they are
just going to have to deal with and act like decent citizens -- not
terrorists.
