I personally believe if the law allows patients or primary caregivers to grow eight plants, and they are able to walk around with marijuana, people will also want cocaine and heroin to became legal to treat illness and sick people. An illegal drug is an illegal drug whether the drug is marijuana or any other drug. If marijuana is going to be legal for some people and not others is unfair. The bill should ask for marijuana to become a legal drug instead of being partially legal. Ernestine Remer Springfield - --- MAP posted-by: Larry Seguin
