@ curious

Learn your bible if you want to tell me what Gods will is for me or anyone else.

Genesis chapter 1:11-12 chapter 1:26-31

The Bible clearly states that God created the seed bearing plants of the earth and they are for human use and consumption, the only one forbidden is the fruit from the tree of knowledge. No where else in the bible does it say we should not use the plants provided for us by our father GOD, nor does the Bible say or imply that another person should control what a person can or cannot put into thier body. Just because you do not agree with myself or others on our choices, does not give you or anyone else power over us. Only a hypocrite will point out the mote in my eye, while ignoring the beam in his/her own eye. We are given certain rules to follow in the bible and only the command to not eat from the tree of knowledge pertains to plants. To many people claiming to be christians turn out to be hypocrites instead, because they want to have dominion over those who do not follow what THEY believe, instead of following Gods word.

@ Mic Hill

Actually the majority of voters did support it, hence 58%. Sadly, once again the well oiled republican propaganda machine was is full swing. Once the fat cats get their ducks in a row and can make money off it, it will pass without all the scare tactics.

There was a reason these fat-cats poured money into the “anti-pot” message. They were not going to get paid like they thought they should. I’ll also say that the amendment, if it was full of loopholes, should be re-written and re-introduced. There’s a way to do this legally without big growers and other profiteers. A state sanctioned grow farm and close inspection could have easily kept out the riff-raff and resulted in some relief for those suffering from seizures and cancer symptoms. Fear mongers won out again.

Also, if people don’t like the laws of fl, like not legalizing dope, not allowing same sex marriages, move, wouldn’t hurt my feelings a bit, I wish we could vote for shutting down the drug clinics, people say I have rights, yeah, you do, you have a right to move out of the sunshine state, or else go to a private island & build y’all’s own Sodom & Gomorrah & take these true dope heads w/ you, you’ll find out then what God likes & doesn’t like. Some people actually might get helped then.

So sad. Misinformation, false righteousness, and fear. And, now a little boy I know that has had seizures all his life will suffer for it. :’( The majority SHOULD carry a vote on anything. I bet if it was on gay marriage or abortion, it would pass without 60% Somebody in our politically correct government would see to it. But wait! God created Marijuana. Not, the $$$$$$$$$$$$$ drug companies that are making synthetic “medicine.”

Boo hoo, the stoners have to work a little harder to get their dope. The LAST thing we need in Florida is to legalize a drug that makes people fat, lazy, and stupid. We have plenty of that without legalized pot.

@DALEK,
Exactly as you say , if all of you need it, there are states where it is available.

Legally.
