Agreed. One of my colleagues here at work is a volunteer firefighter/first responder. When I set out on my campaign in this county to fight the ban on outdoor cultivation he and I had an interesting conversation regarding marijuana. He is a very "religious" born again Christian with 20 years sobriety. He's pretty opinionated about drugs and alcohol but he told me, and I'm paraphrasing...Screw the medicinal program it should be legal for everyone, considering it's safer than any prescription drugs by far as well as recreationally far less harmful than drinking and smoking it makes no sense for it to be illegal
"In all the years as a first responder, I can't count how many overdose calls I ran on from prescription drugs, and alcohol, but I never had to respond to a marijuana related call."
