Writer comes out against medical marijuana legislation

The debate over this summer's vote in Oklahoma regarding legalizing medical marijuana continues.

Mike Brake is a writer and editor out of Oklahoma City and NewsOK.com published his four reasons why State Question 788 is a bad idea.

  • First, he says there isn't enough proof THC has therapeutic benefits.
  • Second, he believes the bill makes it hard to enforce the limitations on how much marijuana a person could grow and possess under the rules.
  • Third, Brake claims the state question abandons proven methods in place for decades for the testing and approval of drugs.
  • Finally, he's worried about the increased marijuana consumption, both to society and the individual.
