There are people who are out gathering signatures to put on a ballot a bill to legalize marijuana for recreational use. I would like to point out one thing about legalizing marijuana for recreation: I believe anyone who has a methamphetamine addiction smoked marijuana first, and smoking marijuana leads to not just meth but all other addictive drugs.

I vote "no," and I choose not to sign this ballot bill signature-gathering initiative. I would hope most everyone would choose to do the same as I.

I feel it would cause a huge problem.
