LEGALIZING MEDICAL POT NOT GOOD FOR SOCIETY

I hear people making the case to support Amendment 2, which would
legalize medical marijuana, so that a very small number of people in
the state can have have pain relief that pills won't provide.

I am a child of the '70s, and know that driving while stoned is just
as dangerous as driving while drunk. Legalizing medical pot will end
up hurting and killing more people in car wrecks than the few it will
help. Society as a whole (and the cost for insurance bills from car
wrecks) is better if Amendment 2 is defeated. Take your pills and suck
it up.
