6. What is your thought on the bill to legalize marijuana for the medical purposes?
I am supportive of this bill and believe that this is a private medical decision, between a doctor and patient.
I am open to the idea, but have concerns about how the details will work.
I am opposed to this bill because marijuana will be more available, possibly get distributed beyond its intention for medical use and/or because law enforcement is opposed to it
This is not a very important issue and I have no opinion one way or another
