I’m for it, I have had chronic pain for 18 years now. For years I have been able with my Doctor to manage my pain with pain meds. Well I have had 4 back surgeries, multiple physical therapy appt., and have been at one time or another been on every pain pill, patch, tens unit, that there is. But now the meds don’t help like they use to. I can’t try Marijuana due to I’m get pain medication through my doctor rt now. If it showed up in my blood tests they couldn’t prescribe the meds I’m on rt now. I ask all the people to put yourself in my shoes. I don’t know if Marijuana wound work for me but dont you think I should have the right under a doctor care and he believes it will help me with my pain I should be able to use it. Please educate yourself on Marijuana. People just thinks it bad bad bad are not doing themselves or other any favors. I did think for years the Marijuana was bad even though I have chronic pain at the time, but I started learning more about it and change my mind. Please VOTE YES to allow medical Marijuana for chronic pain and other illnesses that are not currently covered under Florida’s medical marijuana law.

We don’t need it keep it out of Florida and Alabama. People say they need when they don’t. They just want it to get high. Keep it away.

It does not matter what the business be, from finance to pot farming, if there is potential large profits, you will find people such as Bierman and Keiber.

We do not want marijuana in Florida. There are enough drunk drivers on the road. Also it does not create a healthy enviroment for families. Had to leave a city park up in Colorado because people were getting high smoking at the next picnic table. Lord help us if we vote this dreaded drug in…

$15,000,000,000 (BILLION) is wasted on the arrest and incarceration of simple cannabis consumers every year here in the United States. $31,000,000,000 (BILLION) is lost in potential tax revenues and that’s a very conservative estimate. A total of $46,000,000,000 (BILLION) lost due to prohibitionist cannabis laws that make no logical sense whatsoever and destroy lives daily. This does not include the estimated $150,000,000,000 (BILLION) dollars from cannabis sales that will be taken away from drug cartels and gangs, and placed into the hands of legitimate responsible business.

US CDC Figures on numbers of deaths per year in the USA:

* Prescription Drugs: 237,485 + 5000 traffic fatalities
* Tobacco: 390,323
* Alcohol: 88,013 + 16,000 traffic fatalities
* Cocaine: 4,906
* Heroin: 3,365
* Aspirin: 466
* Acetaminophen (Tylenol): 179
* Marijuana: 0, none, not a single fatal overdose in all medical history and almost no traffic problems

So, which is safer? End the LIES and LEGALIZE NOW!!!
