Questions that need hard answers
To Mr. Ambrose Bennett: No offense, but for a teacher your campaign for marijuana is really not interesting. Try talking about the research studies on marijuana and tobacco, alcohol, drugs, etc. Tell the difference between smoking marijuana and tobacco. How does it affect our health? Provide research information for people to believe you.
How about searching and sharing the history of other places that made marijuana legal? How did it change their economy and the effects after it was legalized? Did it reduce crime, the use of other drugs, or made it worse? Did it raise more revenue?
Marijuana is an issue that many people would rather not talk about in the open. But I’m sure many would be interested to know how this will help generate more revenue and reduce crimes.
I not in support of such an issue, but if this is better than casino, I’m interested since our government is desperately in need of fast revenue generating businesses.
So if you want people to support the legalization of marijuana, then you need to answer all the questions above.
