I would not vote for him because of that single issue.

Seen that stuff ruin too many lives for it to be legal in this state.

 

So you have seen someone's life ruined because of marijuana, and ONLY marijuana?

 

Specifics would be appreciated if you don't mind. This isn't a hot button issue for me, but if it is enough to be a single issue that keeps you for voting for someone then I would like to know more.

Several of my students have resorted to stealing and robbery to support their marijuana habit. They got into a lifestyle in which they thought that marijuana was their answer to handling issues in life.

 

I have seen them rob the money to pay the rent for their home to buy pot.

 

I know, I know I am going to hear over and over that pot is not addictive but I say a mental addiction is as strong and more lasting than a physical addiction.

 

I have also seen many teens, both ones that I went to school with and ones that I have taught, that have got to the point that pot does not provide them with the high that it once did and they move onto harder and more dangerous drugs.

Fair enough.

I met Galbraith at a golf scramble in June. Seems to be a pretty nice guy.

I have a hard time believing they're stealing to pay for just a pot habit. Most potheads I've known just do without or go to a buddy's house who has some. Pot is not a drug that lends itself to extreme behavior.

 

The behavior you're talking about is that of someone hooked to meth and other hard stuff. They may say they were stealing to buy pot, but I doubt that's what they were getting.

I think they are stealing to buy Cheetos and Doritos

Would vote for Gatewood or Trey, Has Trey already said No to a campaign?

Can the people claiming he'd be a wonderful Governor provide some specifics of his past platform that they've liked so much. Being a warm person and/or good lawyer isn't quite enough to garner my vote. Thanks.

 

Hello. Could some of the people saying they could vote for him answer the above request. Many thanks in advance.

The overwhelming theme of everything Gatewood has ever said, written, or thought about has been the protection of individual rights and civil liberties. Gatewood supports a reduction of taxes and less power at the federal level. Furthermore he is an ardent supporter of 2nd amendment rights.

 

I also hear that he might be ok with the legalization of marijuana. :sssh:

 

You can google him and find many interviews that he has done considering he has ran for office many times.

Have you ever watched Reefer Madness?

Thanks. Sounds like I'd like a lot of what he likes, other than the marijuana issue. I look at that issue the same way that LBBC does.

I'm guessing that your students are under 21...If marijuana were legal and you had to be at least 21 to buy it...Wouldn't it be somewhat a little harder for minors to get?Plus I would think it would be alot cheaper...So maybe that would mean a little less Robberies...Maybe not...:cool:

Is it enough to prevent you from voting for him?
