They used pot tax scams in Colorado too now they cant make enough tax revenue off pot sales because of illegals selling cheaper pot out of there migrant camps
As usual our incompetent, lazy government is totally unprepared and meddling to circumvent the will of the voters to inject their own personal wants. Until it is legalized on the federal level (which should happen the 12th of Never) anyone who owns firearms is a complete FOOL to buy at a dispensary. The Black Market will continue to thrive in OhighO.
"“In strict medical terms marijuana is far safer than many foods we commonly consume. For example, eating 10 raw potatoes can result in a toxic response. By comparison, it is physically impossible to eat enough marijuana to induce death. Marijuana in its natural form is one of the safest therapeutically active substances known to man." – Francis Young (DEA Administrative Law Judge – 1988])
"Penalties against possession of a drug should not be more damaging to an individual than the use of the drug itself; and where they are, they should be changed. Nowhere is this more clear than in the laws against possession of marijuana in private for personal use…” – Jimmy Carter (U.S.President)
“Congress should definitely consider decriminalizing possession of marijuana… We should concentrate on prosecuting the rapists and burglars who are a menace to society.” – Dan Quayle (U.S. Representative & Vice President)
"Even if one takes every reefer madness allegation of the prohibitionists at face value, marijuana prohibition has done far more harm to far more people than marijuana ever could." “The anti-marijuana campaign is a cancerous tissue of lies, undermining law enforcement, aggravating the drug problem, depriving the sick of needed help and suckering well intentioned conservatives and countless frightened parents.” – William F. Buckley Jr. (American conservative author & commentator)
"The illegality of cannabis is outrageous, an impediment to full utilization of a drug which helps produce the serenity and insight, sensitivity and fellowship so desperately needed in this increasingly mad and dangerous world." – Dr. Carl Sagan (American Cosmologist, Astrobilologist, author & science communicator)
“You bet I did -— and I enjoyed it.” ….when asked if he had ever smoked marijuana. – Michael Bloomberg (New York City Mayor)
"Studies have consistently failed to establish the existence of a link between the harshness of a country’s drug laws and its levels of drug use." – Kofi Annan (U.N. Secretary General)
"Pot is a better drug than alcohol. I'll prove it to you. You're at a ball game or a concert, and someone's really violent and aggressive and obnoxious, are they drunk or are they smoking pot?" “Why is pot against the law? It wouldn't be because anyone can grow it, and therefore you can't make a profit off it, would it?” “…It grows naturally upon our planet. Doesn’t the idea of making nature against the law seem to you a bit … unnatural?” -Bill Hicks (Satirist, Social Critic, Stand-Up Comedian)
"If the words "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness" don't include the right to experiment with your own consciousness, then the Declaration of Independence isn't worth the hemp it was written on." – Terence McKenna (American ethnobotanist, author, advocate for responsible use of natural psychedelic plants)

Recreational marijuana is making people act crazier than usual. That’s why it’s called wacky tobacco. It also causes severe hypoxia which destroys your heart.
Help me make sense of this: We can grow up to 6 plants per adults (max 12 if two adults live in same house) but we can possess up to 2.5 ounces. 6 plants can grow well over this amount, so are we just supposed to give it to a friends?
Dewine Drags our feet and Ohio is always last state on the Bus! It holds Ohio back in many ways instead of opertunitzing and do something positive and progressively! DeWine the Saviors time is about up and time to REPLACE THE DINOSAUR OF YESTERYEAR! NEXT election DO IT DAMMIT REPLACE DEWINE AND VOTE!!!
If it's to expensive you can still drive to Michigan, I had a medical card and it was cheaper to drive to Michigan. But if they change the law to much I will vote for democrats this next election
The only problem I have with legalized any kind of drug is it makes you compliant with the government you're easily manipulated you become a slave to their whims you become docile and foolish exactly how the government wants the entire population
now we need to legalize cross border shipping of weed from other states. because states that have a surplus could help new states get started and it would help them too.
even those that start growing now are looking at a minimum of three months before their first harvest.
Mike dewine or any politician who try to stop any issue we the people vote in they should be voted out of office immediately ohio has spoken on issue 1 issue 2. Can't stop change adjust it or voters should vote you out. All politicians better listen we the people put you in office will take you out. No matter the issue. God bless America 🇺🇸 and Americans
I will not be paying for weed grow my own 15$ for two seeds for 4 oz of weed every 10 weeks
Suckers want to buy it…just grow your own and beat the game
They used pot tax scams in Colorado too now they cant make enough tax revenue off pot sales because of illegals selling cheaper pot out of there migrant camps
Why buy it when can get it from Bidens illegals crossing the border. And why buy it when can grow it at home

Don't buy….grow instead.
A portion of that needs to go to the communities that were damaged by the war on drugs

Bring back the old-timer reporters. This young gunner messed up several times. WTOL really going downhill IMO…0:25, 0:38, 0:48, 1:04, 1:13.
The Bill was already Passed, noone gets to change it.

Respect the vote of the PEOPLE!!! Democracy Remember???Morons!
They had the opportunity to make changes before it was voted on…..duh.
Recreational marijuana is making people act crazier than usual. That’s why it’s called wacky tobacco. It also causes severe hypoxia which destroys your heart.
If they cap THC in Ohio then I’m happy continuing to give my money to Michigan as they support what their citizens voted for😄👍🏼
Exactly.

Too bad the weed is so toxic from the phasphates nitrates and anti fungalcides as max profit over your health is key beware
Just let the dispensaries sell to everyone on that day. Problem solved. Or go to Michigan to buy…
We all need to move to Michigan
Legislature has already said they are going to do all they can to fight this.
If it's to expensive you can still drive to Michigan, I had a medical card and it was cheaper to drive to Michigan. But if they change the law to much I will vote for democrats this next election
Maby they will replumb water so it's safe

Why does Dewine not like Democracy? Did he think that our small, illiterate minds didn't know what we were voting for?

Yes that would be what you would believe to happen by order. … but the wheels have well been greased
What a joke.
Republican conservatives are fascists
Mosaic virus makes clones weak, less potent. Need to grow from seed. Live and learn. This is going to be bunk weed.
Lawmakers can still repeal it.
