They do realize it being illegal does nothing. 55 million people in America smoke Marijuana today! Nothing is going to change except people won't be considered criminals for smoking it. If you're afraid of it then you must not know anything about it.
It's been proven time and time again that making things illegal only increase criminal activity because people will make money by selling those things illegally. Middle school kids are selling Marijuana even because of how much money you can make. Illegal selling only makes it more dangerous because people will put things in it to make it stronger and addictive. This could all be fixed if it was legalized and sold legally.
NOT taking the damn prohibition off, which shouldn't have been applied in the first place, is inhumane! ! People need to get their acts together and get educated about the miraculous marijuana plant which has had been taken away from Humanity under the guise of being a negative force for too long! It's time to stop ignorant behaviour and allow people to decide for themselves what it is they want to do. People cannot continue tolerating being treated like children. This has to stop! We need to take our lives back@@!!. This medical plant should not only be used medicinally, but the hemp can be used for creating all kinds of things from cars to planes, etc. IT'S THE NEW UP AND COMING CASH CROP.
I'm an adult I like cupcakes and lollipops. Achacol has cupcakes flavors and so there for they want kids to use it. Make achacol plane old nasty….vape juice has different flavors as well. nobody who's an adult has taist buds. Grow up nobody wants kids fucked up.
There are no legitimate arguments against legalization, period. It is absurd to still be having this conversation. Cannabis should have been legalized decades ago because it is FAR less dangerous to individuals and to society than alcohol, it has endless medicinal uses, both biological and mental, and its prohibition has ruined the lives of those with felony cannabis convictions. It's utterly senseless. The main reasons law enforcement want to keep it criminalized is because it is PROFITABLE for law enforcement agencies and, lets face it, criminalizing weed maintains the structurally racists status quo that funds most law enforcement agencies. Fortunately, not many voters fell for their bullshit fear mongering.
Legalized marijuana isn’t the primary cause for a rise in panhandling, Walsworth said; rather, it’s the result of people giving money to panhandlers and the inability to enforce loitering laws as a result of successful lawsuits filed by the American Civil Liberties Union.
They're trying to make it sound as if regulation & Limited criminal activity are bad things? Lol 😂 the only issue with regulation is mismanagement of where the funds end up like lottery. They desperately don't want to give up their cash cow people. Marijuana is a big part why the court system extortion scheme still works today.
They're just trying to spread modern day reefer madness to try and protect there special interests, don't worry Michigan you got this, I will visit you soon
Everybody knows that LEOs are permitted – and actually encouraged – to lie in the performance of their duties. What upsets them the most about Michigan's referendum is how it literally outlaws their ability to circumvent citizens' rights. This fact needs to be emphasized more by the media. https://ballotpedia.org/Michigan_Proposal_1,_Marijuana_Legalization_Initiative_(2018)
If any bad driving is going to be going on, it's going to be from the people drinking alcohol. anybody smoking weed and driving probably will get pulled over for driving too slow. Listening to the lies spew out of their mouth. Their reasons to why we should not legalize it just ticked me off. lies, lies, and more lies. they're so full of s*** I thought I had smell a vision tv. You can tell that they've never smoked weed a day in their life and when they did they only smoked it once and they had one bad experience. People that smoke it all the time do not behave that way! On their little lollipop lies that they were spewing saying they're targeting kids. That's for people that need it medically. They medically need it but they don't want to smoke it but still need it to ease their pain. God give us marijuana on this Earth for us to use. They have no right to keep it from us! They don't seem to have a problem promoting the chemicals in Pharmaceuticals that they shove down people's throats or how about the fluoride they put in everyone's water. How about the Chemtrails I see in the sky everyday. what about those chemicals? I can't wait for the November 6th vote! It's going to be the biggest turnout ever for yes legalization!! KEEP UP THE GOOD FIGHT!!

As an ex smoker, I totally agree. Most youngsters in Europe don't use weed. There's no need 🤣
The arguments used against cannabis are funny af
Bro that police dude is absolutely blowing everything out of proportion
But it’s like the same thing as alcohol
0:45 not gonna lie her voice scared the shit out of me.
Cannabis oil cures cancer, run from the cure
Traffic accidents went up due to the fact you have a population increase…..not because more high drivers…
F**** weirdos man

So making marijuana legal for people 21 and older is targeting kids?
Well the people have spoken

What was this about? I forgot.
Bullshit I went to school high everyday and I had all A's and B's and I was a honor roll student.
Sounds like fear mongering to me.
Look at the cop begging to keep it illegal. Poor thing lol…

won't need so many cops if its legal that's likely the worry.
I love how anybody can say anything without any research nor proof on TV.

At the end of the day alcohol is so much worse on every level, and it's legal.
