The Arizona\u00a0ballot proposition that worries me the most is Proposition 203,\u00a0the Arizona\u00a0Medical Marijuana Act.<\/p>\n
I really dislike deception. This is promoted by people who want to smoke weed, but rather than come out and say that, they have to dress it up\u00a0as some type of remedy for people who are dying from cancer or who are suffering chronic pain. Guess what, people? You don’t have to be suffering from chronic pain in order to get Weed. You just have to SAY you are. And a list is being compiled of physicians who will believe you and write the prescription. Does anyone doubt that this is what everyone who wants a joint is going to say? In states that permit the use of medical marijuana, 97-98% of the users come in under this fuzzy claim of pain.<\/p>\n
I’m a dentist who has dealt with issues of pain for years, and I can tell you that there is no way to either prove or disprove that someone is telling the truth when they complain of pain.<\/p>\n
Results of\u00a0a poll of Tea Party patriots are\u00a0posted on the Tea Party website. However, there’s a big typo in the results on Proposition 203<\/a>. The yesses and the noes are reversed. The correct results are 68.8% opposed and 31.2% in favor of Proposition 203. I hope the Tea Party website people fix this.<\/p>\n\t
