Arizona Voters Legalize Medical Marijuana
I am very pleased with the outcome of Arizona's ballot measure to legalize medical marijuana, and I hope that more states will follow the precedent. I think legalizing marijuana for medical use is the compassionate decision considering that the drug is less toxic and less dangerous than many other pain and anxiety reducing pharmaceuticals that would be used otherwise. Personally, I feel that the lobbyists for these pharmaceutical companies may be one of the reasons that this measure wasn't passed earlier. As far as medical marijuana being legalized for recreational use, I think that the revenue it would bring in would be well worth it.

I am also pleased to hear that medical marijuana has been legalized in Arizona. Because if marijuana is going to a good use such as helping people who really need it I don't any problem with it.I hope the rest of the country will see this a positive example!
ReplyDeleteI agree with both of you. It makes sense that the rest of our country should follow Arizona in the effects to legalize medicinal marijuana because it truly just makes the most sense. I mean it clearly will be used either way, and to make it more accessible for those who really need it, legalization makes the most sense.
