The Cannabis Interim Study Evokes Strong Emotion

7/25/2018

The Oklahoma legislators stepped up, today. A bicameral & bipartisan group of lawmakers took time to hear from several Oklahomans who made impassioned pleas for liberty to get the medicines they need for themselves and their children.
We're including a clip of a couple of the presenters today.

Tulsa businessman, Ray Jennings talks about his recovery from 'stage-4' cancer and the role that cannabis meds played in giving him his life back.

Several organized groups came together at the capitol and presented many different aspects of why Oklahomans voted is such strong numbers, to reform our cannabis laws.
Some discussed civil liberties, others discussed medical research and recent discoveries, still others discussed their own life & death struggles. Others focused on what the intent of the peoples' law is supposed to be understood as. And others provided thoughtful ideas of how to make government's role easier to accomplish.

Shawn Jenkins of Broken Arrow talks about his children and their developmental disabilities, and how cannabis medicines have treated the seizures they endured.

"No politician 'checks off every box" in your list of issues. You have to prioritize and use personal discretion regarding every current and future issue that you can imagine. Then you have to also judge integrity & consistency. A candidate's openness to study the issues & courage to think for themselves. Then you need to review their honesty & work ethic. I respect any voter's decision, when they've informed themselves and took voting seriously." - David Van Risseghem

Sooner Politics News is a platform, not a media site. All our bloggers get their feeds promoted regardless of content. As soon as We suppress or delete even one posting, we become an endorser of whatever We didn't censor..The publisher doesn't (and could not) logically agree with all the content, so we would not expect any rational reader to agree, either. What we do hope, is that readers will think for themselves, and at least be better informed of the issues, events, and values that our citizen journalists work hard to provide for free.. We automate much of the tasks so that our sources' content gets as much exposure as possible. We encourage constructive discussion & debate. The solution is more free speech, not less.
