1) Re: 2011 Senate Bill 321 (Exclude medical marijuana from reimbursable no fault insurance services ) by albaby2 on April 2, 2012Oh, come off it Ralpho, there are so many phony medical Pot scrip writers and growers. That is what is making this necessary. I know stoners who laugh about how easy it is to get a scrip, and who try to use the scrip as an excuse to show up high at work. I don't want to fly in an airplane whose pilot is higher than the plane, or live near a nuclear or chemical plant operated by dopers.
I don't think I get it, medical marijuana is a legal drug now so it makes no sense to come up with this bill, it just doesn't make any sense. I am not a drug supporter, in fact I'v learned my lesson with drugs after I completed my recovery in a suboxone treatment center but that doesn't mean I can't see an injustice when it's right in front of me. Boy, I don't want to be on medical marijuana now, these people go through a lot these days.
albaby2 Thanks for your input, MORON. Let me remind you, the voters of MICHIGAN voted on the law as is, to prevent you and your fellow morons from getting between what a MAJORITY of Michigan voters wanted and what a few narrow minded ingrates, like yourself, want. You see, the MAJORITY of Michigan voters dont care about your opinion because you LOST. Just so you know, ANY Michigan legislator that attempts to modify this law as VOTED IN BY A MAJORITY OF MICHIGAN VOTERS, will not win in the next election. PS, sign the petition to remove snyder.
