      Lots of passion on this issue, so let’s hit the reset button. As a parent, I hope we can all agree we should strive to limit non medical youth use of and fetal exposure to marijuana products. I think we should prioritize doing no harm to most vulnerable. That’s my top concern.

          I respectfully ask that you go further into exposing the damage alcohol does to the unborn, and how women should not drink alcohol during pregnancy.

          Those are good goals, but you should recognize that prohibition fails to achieve them. Meanwhile, it also puts the unregulated market in the hands of those who don’t test or label products for potency or purity, or pay taxes to support public education efforts. Rethink this.

          Don’t worry about the marijuana proponents. Please just keep up the great work you are doing. The public deserves the truth! Our kids are the target of a predatory industry, the marijuana industry. Anyone who speaks publicly about the truth is always attacked.

          Israel has voted to export cannabis medicine in all its forms because they have done extensive research and found cannabis to be a safe and effective medicine for a plethora of diseases and conditions. A legal cannabis industry does not target children!

          If dosed in a controlled environment the outcomes are favorable. It’s like SSRI overdose. Should we outlaw SSRI because some people OD and suffer from serotonin syndrome?!

          That statement is considerably more reasonable.

          I think the most passion is around sharing truthful information (though agree with the aims you just articulated. Might have a stronger coalition in that if you choose better sources)
