I'm not for or against any of this. But who are they to decide what's to be legal or illegal in our state? How come we the people don't get a say in this? That's not 1% of the population in the building talking about what drug should be legal or illegal.
This pussys me off. These white folks about to make big money off of something brother were making penny's off of and going to jail. They justify if by clearing records. What about all the time spent behind bars.

Irresponsible, negligent idiots! I am asking those who support this, "How many cases of people killed in car accidents by people high on marijuana or alcohol or drugs have you analyzed?" I have analyzed thousands as a former employee of the Toxicology Laboratory of the Illinois Dept. of Public Health. Any drug that interferes with a persons judgement or response time while driving is dangerous. I don't want to be killed by a person high on marijuana or want to see our roads and highways made more dangerous by irresponsible politicians who have zero level of knowledge of the danger of toxic substances in the body.
Legalizing Drugs and Gambling, what's next prostitution? When I was growing up in Illinois all of these things were criminal. None of the decent people I have met do any of these things.

Teenagers and young adults who use marijuana may be messing with their heads in ways they donât intend. Evidence is mounting that regular marijuana use increases the chance that a teenager will develop psychosis, a pattern of unusual thoughts or perceptions, such as believing the television is transmitting secret messages. It also increases the risk of developing schizophrenia, a disabling brain disorder that not only causes psychosis, but also problems concentrating and loss of emotional expression. In one recent study that followed nearly 2,000 teenagers as theyÂ ïżŒbecame young adults, young people who smoked marijuana at least five times were twice as likely to have developed psychosis over the next 10 years as those who didnât smoke pot. Another new paper concluded that early marijuana use could actually hasten the onset of psychosis by three years. Those most at risk are youths who already have a mother, father, or sibling with schizophrenia or some other psychotic disorder. Young people with a parent or sibling affected by psychosis have a roughly one in 10 chance of developing the condition themselvesâeven if they never smoke pot. Regular marijuana use, however, doubles their riskâto a one in five chance of becoming psychotic. In comparison, youths in families unaffected by psychosis have a 7 in 1,000 chance of developing it. If they smoke pot regularly, the risk doubles, to 14 in 1,000. For years, now, experts have been sounding the alarm about a possible link between marijuana use and psychosis. One of the best-known studies followed nearly 50,000 young Swedish soldiers for 15 years. Those who had smoked marijuana at least once were more than twice as likely to develop schizophrenia as those who had never smoked pot. The heaviest users (who said they used marijuana more than 50 times) were six times as likely to develop schizophrenia as the nonsmokers. So far, this research shows only an association between smoking pot and developing psychosis or schizophrenia later on. Thatâs not the same thing as saying that marijuana causes psychosis. This is how research works. Years ago, scientists first noted an association between cigarette smoking and lung cancer. Only later were they able to figure out exactly how cigarette smoke damaged the lungs and other parts of the body, causing cancer and other diseases. The research on marijuana and the brain is at a much earlier stage. We do know that THC, one of the active compounds in marijuana, stimulates the brain and triggers other chemical reactions that contribute to the drugâs psychological and physical effects. But itâs not clear how marijuana use might lead to psychosis. One theory is that marijuana may interfere with normal brain development during the teenage years and young adulthood. The teenage brain is still a work in progress. Between the teen years and the mid-20s, areas of the brain responsible for judgment and problem solving are still making connections with the emotional centers of the brain. Smoking marijuana may derail this process and so increase a young personâs vulnerability to psychotic thinking. (You can read more about how the adolescent brain develops in this article from the Harvard Mental Health Letter.) While the research on marijuana and the mind has not yet connected all the dots, these new studies provide one more reason to caution young people against using marijuanaâespecially if they have a family member affected by schizophrenia or some other psychotic disorder. Although it may be a tough concept to explain to a teenager, the reward of a short-time high isnât worth the long-term risk of psychosis or a disabling disorder like schizophrenia.

The dude cracking the egg pretty much perfectly sums up the idiocy and the dumb, simple minded thinking of the people opposing this bill. Common sense and science say this plant is not only not harmful, it's beneficial. But they say it isn't "cause look if this egg is your brain and i crack it in a pan, look now the egg is cracked in a pan. So ya weed is bad." Morons. Good work IL legislators, yall did a good thing
Colorado promised to put the money in schools and roads but they didn't they had to pass another bill for people to pay more taxes else where to end up paying for the schools and roads đĄ so yeah good job passing it it should be legal everywhere. Don't expect them to put the money where they said it would go is all I'm saying

Congrats Illinois. You guys are lucky. I am happy for you! Meanwhile in Iowa we are getting nowhere and the Governor here is terrible. She loves booze and gambling and pills. So sad and heartless.
I'm fine with the legalization and also fine with their ways to increase revenue, but with one caveat, don't increase spending! We're already in a hole. We're just digging yourself deeper into it (more has to do with the last few seconds regarding 80 billion in spending).

The I-80 bridge crumbling is less important than legalizing weed apparently. Hope you potheads fry your brains!!!
This pussys me off. These white folks about to make big money off of something brother were making penny's off of and going to jail. They justify if by clearing records. What about all the time spent behind bars.
finally, some people found their brains and allowed people to get their medicine without fear of jail….
