No freedom of speech?
Sorry Mr. Bennett, since you’re writing for us to read I thought we are entitled to an opinion. I guess if you were my teacher I would have gotten an F on my report card.
I did read your article, and I guess your words are so sophisticated for a person like myself who finds it difficult to read because it was long and some words were hard to understand. I apologize because people like me don’t like to read long letters. I guess I should have read your article further down. Someone also shared a website when he/she commented on my article and I was able to get a glimpse of it.
He was right, I’m pretty behind on the issue. And cannabis legalization is now being legalized in most states. The studies about cannabis are: it is not as harmful as tobacco or alcohol, and the benefits of using MJ are not as harmful as other drugs. In some states, since it was legalized the price for MJ went down. For some reason, could it be that if MJ is legal, people would buy MJ instead? The potential to generate revenue is higher than tobacco and alcohol. The risk is addiction only but there have been no studies whether it has any harmful effects like that of alcohol or other drugs.
Just so you know, my mother never taught me how to speak or write English because she doesn’t know how, but she sure did teach me how to respect others. This behavior you described about me, I learned it from people like you.
You said I told you so, but if you did then I would have known, but you didn’t because you only assumed we know what you’re talking about. So, don’t worry, I wouldn’t criticize your campaign again, and I’m sorry for my comments. I shouldn’t assume like you, that you’ll understand my point of view, in asking you to do something for people like me in order to understand what we want to know.
