Good, No MONOPOLIES by a few vertically integrated business, give the right to people to grow at home.
Why should I have to pay a big corporation for a plant I can grow myself…make it legal…not something to capitalize on
Are you seriously suggesting that just because there is no home growing in the amendment that you prefer to continue keeping cannabis possession and use completely illegal with possession continuing to be a serious crime and to continue criminalizing millions of Floridians over cannabis? Because if so, it sounds like you are just another desperate, irrational, illogical prohibitionist then just using the “no home grow” as a lame excuse/scapegoat to try to convince Floridians to vote no and continue the complete illegality of cannabis in place.Any form of legalization of the possession of cannabis (even without home grow) naturally, logically, and rationally absolutely sure beats the heck out of the continued complete prohibition of cannabis under which cannabis possession remains a serious crime. Wouldn’t you agree with this? If not, can you please explain to all the readers here in great detail exactly why you feel that the continued prohibition of cannabis and criminalization of people who posses and use cannabis is somehow better for citizens just because there is no home growing in the proposed bill?
All the people pretending like they want us to vote no just because of no home grow provision were truly always against cannabis use and never grew a plant nor rolled a spliff nor toked on a phat doobie in their entire lives, guaranteed! They want to continue the arresting, criminalizing and handing out life long permanent criminal records to Floridians but don’t have a rational reason why, so they pretend that no home grow means its better to keep it illegal and continue the criminalization of millions of Floridians! Don’t be deceived by their tricks, they never had any intentions of growing nor using cannabis ever. All fake! They trying to get us to Vote against our freedom and yes to more arrests and criminalization of our citizens.
Don’t have that problem here in Las Vegas. WE live in a FREE state here!
It got the majority, but we don’t live in a democracy.
