This is like the propaganda from back in the day - "And the ultimate end of the Marijuana addict: Hopeless insanity"

If you're going to discuss a topic like this, you should probably be coming from a place of experience, not based on a political agenda. Though, you're most likely going to ruin the purity of it with GMOs and tainted products, the government would make quite a profit. Unfortunately, Monsanto and Bayer are trying to capitalize on this. Hopefully, the public will support locals and organics, and not succumb to the BS products that no doubt will arise. Also, the fact that they are destroying land to build marijuana dispensaries...why destroy the earth more when we could be planting these directly into the ground....These are the topics you hard-hitting journalists should be focusing on, not some silly poll....but I suppose that wouldn't be in line with whomever is supporting your site.

It's a shame Ocean and Monmouth freeholders weighing in on pot are a bunch of old rich white folks with no experience. Your Scotch and Budweiser from dad's liquor cabinet are the real gateway drugs.

On top of that cannabis is not a gateway drug as it's been proven to not be. Alcohol and big pharma opiates are the true gateways to a life of hard drugs and now that I know for a matter of fact as I have used to been hooked on these opiates thanks to our ever loving know all government pill pusher's, thanks to cannabis I'm now clean and sober again and VERY rarely smoke or eat cannabis as I only do when that irritable opiates urge comes when ever my rheumatoid arthritis starts kicking my butt. They need to try it before they knack it. That lady who said she had known someone who died I'm sorry but I call bull that cannabis had even a single thing to do with the death she mentioned just more false propaganda.

This is a sessions mentality kinda poll full blown out of touch stupidity it's not even debatable cannabis is not addictive nor a drug(look up definition of drug). Cocaine is as deadly as it is addictive non debatable. This has sessions propaganda written all over it. Re-schedule cannabis tax and regulate. legalize it

Even those who warn of marijuana addiction acknowledge it is a psychological addiction (like shopping, video games, or the internet), and that cocaine is an actual chemical addiction.

My brother who has terminal bone cancer was taking Morphine like candy. Since he has been put on the medical marijuana program he no longer takes any drugs for pain. He is able to function like a normal human being without having the effects of pills in his system. The changes with his pain, abilities, and overall health is staggering. I have seen a total turnaround, the difference is amazing.

Anybody can get addicted to the habit of doing something, but this poll is quite ridiculous comparing cannabis to cocaine. There is nothing in Cannabis that is physically addictive unlike cocaine. Need I say more? There are no withdrawal symptoms from cannabis and there has never been a single death from cannabis itself. Legalize it already.

To equate an Opioid to Cannibis with No THC is the height of ignorance. Please read the history of Marijuana in the US. Get smart you are hurting sick people with your misguided BS
