Anti-MMJ Propaganda Kicks into High Gear in Lansing, MI

You almost wonder what took them so long.
Freep.com reports, a team of top national anti-drug officials joined the late-starting campaign to defeat Michigan’s medical marijuana initiative Tuesday. Proposition 1’s opposition referred to it as a dangerous legalization scheme, and the words “despair” and “addiction” actually made their way into the rhetoric.
The group Citizens Protecting Michigan’s Kids was formed late last month by law enforcement and medical organizations that argue that legalizing medical marijuana will make it harder to control cultivation, distribution and sale of the drug.
Ah, but who needs logic when you have unfounded rationalizations and scare tactics.
