THERE ARE TOO MANY RISKS TO LEGALIZE MARIJUANA

As a local pediatrician, I feel I must weigh in on the legalization of marijuana.  Ohio, please don't do it.  Medicinal purposes are one thing, but the current issue legalizes recreational use.  The bottom line is this: we know that regular marijuana use under the age of 26 lowers the IQ and that marijuana is a gateway drug.  Another thing, just because you can tax something doesn't mean you should legalize it.
