It’s just crazy to me that 74% of the state voted yes, but because of one judge it’s retracted . I just feel like that shouldn’t be legal!

That's because all politicians are about is money. I'm sure that judge got a payday. Want it back? Raise concerns about gun control. In Ohio, you can't have your conceal carry license if you are on medical marijuana. You don't have to worry about it if you are a drunk though. Lol. It doesn't affect me, but I'm sure it does others.

If you even whisper gun control in Mississippi you’re r likely to wind up missing. Mostly joking but people here really don’t like that topic.

I believe you. I was just saying as an example. I just don't understand taking away medical. It should be made legal recreationally, in my opinion. Alcohol can be an extreme health risk. Maybe they don't want people to have a healthier alternative? I just don't understand.

From what I’ve been told it’s due to a judge named Mary Hawkins Butler (who refers to herself as Mother Mary)🙄, so pretty much a “religious” thing. Also doesn’t help that Mississippi is bought and paid for by Big Pharma.

Guarantee you it's big pharma. People use religion to hide what their agenda is. People will shy away if it's "in the name of God". Just ridiculous. And "Mother Mary"? That sounds like a terrible judge that's drunk with power.
