Vote Republicans. Also, that came off of the CHP a records. Sorry my bad. Also why don’t you show some respect you liberal son of a gun. So get that it’s your freedom but you don’t realize that something that seems good to you may not seem great to the next guy. A one size fits all solution cannot work “genius”.</description>

What good is the revenue if we have to use it to fix property damages? Or pay off lawsuits if a weed smoking driver happens to crash and it results in a fatality?</description>

		<description>Exactly. The last thing we need on the streets is another danger to public safety. And Troy, I understand that there hasnt been an o.d. death caused by pot but look at these statistics..97 DUI arrests involved only marijuana;
183 DUI arrests involved both marijuana and alcohol;
22 of the DUI arrests involving only marijuana resulted in property damage;
Seven of the DUI arrests involving only marijuana resulted in injuries;
None of the DUI arrests involving only marijuana resulted in fatalities;
24 of the DUI arrests involving marijuana and alcohol resulted in injuries; and
Seven of the DUI arrests involving marijuana and alcohol resulted in fatalities.</description>

Troy, I agree it is your freedom.  Do what you may to your own body. 
Whether your vice is alcohol, meth, marijuana, tobacco, heroin, I could care less.  However, once you operate a car under the influence, or try to break into my property, and put my or my families life in jeopardy, God help your soul, because that is where I draw the line, and my freedoms kick in, if you know what I mean.  Remember people voted this idiot for Governor into office, they voted for a bullet train, and even voted to raise their own taxes, so they proven unconditionally they struggle with intellect.  Not sure marijuana will help that issue.</description>

Alcohol kills brain cells how do you blindly leave out that alcohol kills way more people every year.  There has never been a cannabis OD DEATH.  The people of California voted.</description>
