Well if it can be used to help anyone fine. But when it comes to the work place rules will have to be applied. Like smoking tobacco, some companies will say if you use you will be fired. Legal or not. There will have to be studies as to what is allowed. like drinking you can not show up drunk , there fore you can not show up high. Think of what might happen to insurance rates if and employer has to now pick up these cost! Now I do believe that what you do in your off time is your buisness, but what you do on Friday night could hurt you on Monday morning. Well one thing for sure, you smoke, you will eat! So if we are as obese as the medical experts say, you think this is going to help? Just asking some questions. One more thing Law Enforcement will need standards to judge what is to high. Common Since first.

I agree 100%, those vapes are the way to go in public, events such as concerts and fairs ect, non offensive to those in close proximity and most portable.

Convenience is where you find it.

It is simply about the money. The alcohol industry and restaurant industry fought the Colorado initiative and the California initiative because DUI deaths went down, crime went down, and alcohol sales went significantly down…..by some accounts almost 15%. This is simple politics where if you follow the money, you get the answers. In some states they are making sick people with cancer be fingerprinted to get medicine, so understand that big pharm, the alcohol industry, and the restaurant associations have proven numbers that their profits drop. So the best dollar spent by them is to make pot seem dangerous or unhealthy, and the statistic are now causing them to reach panic mode to fight any expansion with their bought and paid for shills in state legislatures across the country.

Letting a politician dictate how a drug can be administered by a medical professional is a bit like a proctologist performing brain surgery…Now that I think of it, the proctologist would be right if the patient were a politician.

“There is agreement between the majority of the House and Senate that the smoking of cannabis is not an act that is consistent with a healthy life and not consistent with consuming medicine,” Bradley said.”

REGARDING:
“But Sen. Rob Bradley, a Fleming Island Republican who has shepherded marijuana-related legislation through his chamber for the past three years, told The News Service of Florida that smoking is off the table.”

Not that I personally care, but the word “shepherded” might more accurately be worded “killed” because it seems since he opposes it he is using his power to override.

I’m personally against drug use unless needed, but unless it is directly hurting someone else, it should be nobody’s business but the user. Yes, I mean for recreational use too.

Potheads are often pitiable but safer to be around than drunks and they don’t seem to damage their bodies as badly as alcohol consumption does.

AND
“I still don’t know which bathroom I’m supposed to use.”

Third bush on your right. Watch your step.

David for better but personal decisions

@ bartender. Like I said before, it does not hurt as much to be killed by somebody driving high on pot as it does for somebody driving high on alcohol.
