"As America was built on the idea of “life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness” it is hypocritical to tell adults they cannot indulge in cannabis."
"In order to induce a lethal response one would have to smoke 1,500 pounds of cannabis within 15 minutes (Judge Francis Young). Marijuana is far safer than some people care to admit. "
" In many respects, marijuana can undoubtedly improve this country for the people. Individual states have taken matters into their own hands by legalizing it, it is no longer acceptable to not consider federal legalization."
