It's about time to let the voters decide, not some politician with their own agenda. I don't smoke, but I believe that it's up to the individual to decide. It's the same with abortion - it's called freedom from government interference in your personal life.
You can actually benefit from pain creams, bath bombs, lubricants and candy, not just smoked
The difference is marijuana only directly affects you if you choose to do it. Abortion kills another human
@@HeraldofNurgle7 it’s not in your body therefore it isn’t your choice…why are you adamant on people who don’t want children to have them? you want children to needlessly suffer?
Oh please 🙄
@@pabloescobarschanclas >do you want children to needlessly suffer?
Says the guy who advocates murdering them lmao..
Marijuana ? Crazy that its still illegal 😂
I know right
How many people die from Alcohol? How many people die from weed? And they say weed is more dangerous.
Alcohol doesn’t eat brain cells.

A friend of mine was killed right in front of me by a pot head smoking in his car. It kills as well.
Omg. Ppl dont know what viable means ??
WE THE PEOPLE!!!
Hell yeah! The people get to decide! That is democracy. I hope the numbers are overwhelming! I hope Floridians send a statement to these "civil servants" that they don't get to tell us what adults can do with their own bodies... be it consuming mind altering substances responsibly or making difficult health care decisions with your DOCTOR! They can get tf up out of my life and my business. I swear millenials about to go off in this bitch!
Weed is safe but I don't do because I can't smoke due to my medication
Edibles friend
Hopefully, you don't drive on medication.
I can't smoke because I'm neurodivergent. I know this is the opposite for some people with neurological issues, but it isn't mine.
Anything that anesthetizes your from the neck up is not safe for anyone. Weed is legal in Vegas and I’ve seen people smoking in the car with the windows rolled up and they open the door a they have little kids in there!! 😡🤬😡🤬
@@jonthinks6238 plenty of people drive on medication lol.
All states should make both legal.
ALL STATES!!!!!
Why do you dislike babies? They have a right to live.
@@KingKongbabe - I have nothing against babies. I have 2 of my own. I’m pro life if they will make the day after easily available to women.
But women are fighting for more than abortion. They are pro women and free choice. Free to do as any man has the right to do. It’s more than abortion. Believe me.
Debbie God is prolife - no offense but im voting with God! There is no 50 shades of gray on this one. Vote with God or have a very tough convo with God on judgement day. Heed my warning it may be the only person brave enough to tell you the truth.
This is why we need a federal amendment.
@@maryc1168 I’m pro life personally, but I have no right telling anyone else what they should do. I don’t know their circumstances.
Do you really think women LIKE HAVING ABORTIONS? Like it’s no big deal? NO THEY DONT. They do it because of what their circumstances are. Not my business. Between them and God. I have no right to tell them what to do.
Florida's constitution is going to guarentee women's right to choose 😮 good job, GOP!
Weed legalization passed in Missouri & ohio, definitely 100% expect this to pass as well as abortion in a purple state like Florida even with the 60% required.
Florida is a red state minus the social conservatism.
The Florida voters are going to vote to tie the hands of the state legislature in favor of abortion rights and marijuana legalization , but they will still vote republican for their legislature and governor (like Ohio).
TLDR: Floridians are Pro gun, pro choice, and pro toke (even if they don't personally partake in said activities) and will vote accordingly.
It's time for the women of Florida to unite during the elections and speak their truth about the healthcare they deserve. Should be their body their choice, not the government.
I don't understand the term "adult" in these cases. According to the constitution, one is considered an adult at age 18. But more and more, laws are crafted to restrict right of legal adults for an additional 3 years. If one is considered adult enough to be drafted and killed in service for one's country then that person deserves ALL of the rights and privileges of any adult citizen of that nation. Plain and simple. Why is it okay for a 19 year old solder to be put in harms way with fully automatic weapons, but they cannot enjoy a simple beer after a hard deployment. Our law makers are completely effed up.
Id like to smoke a joint in texas....
Arizona weed passed with over 60% and ohio 58%. Based on that alone both measures will pass in Florida.

You don’t know the future hold your breath and wait
Fingers crossed
Except, unlike Arizona, Florida will pass both and still elect Republicans.
If it reaches 60% minimal then yes.
Please just legalized cannabis it will make Florida even greater
Right !
The states establish domestic law , just as the constitution has set forth .
florida should learn from alaska legalizing it
Legalize both. Simple
Make sure yall voteeeeee
I'm sick.I'll be smoking me a joint
Ling cancer still exists buddy
This needs to be in tbe voters hands. Not in a politicians. Too many only vote party line. Never taken the people into consideration.
But but they people voted for the politicians in office so who’s the fool here
That’s how things should be done in every state. The people of that state vote for major changes not politicians. I know Desantis is doing a great job in Florida but these two big decisions need to be voted on by the people.
I remember when California residents voted against illegal foreigners attending public schools…they voted against them using public resources and the governor said he would not do what they voted for. California was gone then
I’m more conservative but I’m voting to legalize weed, I’m not even going to vote for abortion, I don’t care either way.
The law has made money on this for so long, it is a shame. If someone wanted to get help for excess they can't without being subjected to fines & more. For so many families this has caused so much grief.
I can’t wait till both pass 🙌🏽
Hell, no marijuana is bad for you but the abortion one yeah, they should pass that one too
@@floridaroadwaysalcohol is worse for you, your point?
@@jayfreeman5117 my point is alcohol is not worse for me because you only get temporarily drunk for like two or three hours marijuana it stays in your system forever you get high forever so stop being stupid by defending marijuana laws. It’s still bad for you to be bipolar gain, weight, and eat more, do you want to get fat for smoking marijuana?
U want abortion to pass?'''then encourage females to use protection or stop sleeping around,,it will pass then
@@floridaroadwaysYOU ARE BACKWARDS,!LIKE YOUR BRAIN
Low level no violent 👨⚖️
Both democrats and Republicans do support legal weed so not much help for dems
I hope more than 60% of voters in Florida vote in favor of abortion rights and recreational marijuana this November.. Abortion and weed is all ya need!
That's exactly what will happen come November.
Florida is a deep red pro 2a state minus the social conservatism.
The Florida voters are going to vote to tie the hands of the state legislature in favor of abortion rights and marijuana legalization , but they will still vote straight republican for their legislature and governor (like Ohio).
TLDR: Floridians are Pro gun, pro choice, and pro toke (even if they don't personally partake in said activities) and will vote accordingly.
If you still support the prohibition and criminalization of cannabis while ok with alcohol and tobacco , turn in your freedom card. I’m talking to you conservatives
2:23 hey you judge man, let him finished to talked okey. You're talking too much blah blah blah blah blah.
Hell Yes!!! Vote Yes on both!
I'll vote yes on 3
If it takes marijuana for you too vote you shouldn’t be voting at all
@@purpkilla2395 Im glad you're not and never will be in charge
@purpkilla2395 I vote in every election. General, primaries, and midterms. Just because someone says they'll vote for a certain amendment doesn't mean they don't vote for anything else. What in either comment lead you to believe that? I don't see anything that would.
@@purpkilla2395 and you used the wrong "to"
Make Florida great again, pass both.
Ikr we damn sure need abortion for crime control
💯
💙💙💙💙 your choice
I'm 62. I unfortunately live with several chronic health issues. I qualify for medical marijuana, but have been using my same tried and true supplier that I've been with for years.
I plan to vote pretty much the party line republican in November. But... I will absolutely also vote yes for recreational pot. Since I know someone will ask, I will vote no on legalized abortion, but will back futures measures which attempt to institute reasonable, common-sense exceptions.
Weed and medical care, let’s go
Who would have guessed? Florida goes for marijuana and healthcare freedoms....outshines Hawaii!
Yup. In Florida, we are pro-gun, pro-choice, pro toke and generally pro freedom.
Since these measures will likely pass, I see the GOP also being simultaneously re elected (since their hands will be tied on these 2 issues).
It’s not going too also why would you want corporate peeps too control the marijuana market just so u can toke even doe you do it already? Keep it illegal
I’m against recreational smoking of weed. Without accompanying rules for the smokers and rights to non smokers this will be a stinky mess.
Then move
Stop being a weirdo because you don't like a natural plant because of smell really? . You probably bitchhh all day long about anything.
Cigarettes smell horribly and people smoke and throw them away anywhere, yet don't see you bitchingg about that. Most people deal with it because you don't want to be a weirdo or Karen
@@user-ig9xv8wd4gwhy would I bring that up on this video? It’s not about tobacco. Yes it smells bad as well.
@@blm813what? I’ll vote
Can you say commandment!
Thou shalt not kill!
Maybe everyone doesn't subscribe to that train of thought.
Thou shalt not kill is a commandment for LIVING BEINGS/SOULS. Genesis clearly states that we become a LIVING...as in LIFE/SOUL when we take our first breath! NOT BEFORE! Get it straight and quit making up your own rules. There is only one rule and that rule is stated in Genesis.
Recreational marijuana has been horrible here in California, can't open your window or door in the summer without pot smoke stinking my house and making me sick - its worse that Tabaco if you have allergies. Same thing driving down the street with a pot smokers car in front. I pray it fails in Florida before I get there.
The law on this... is making money & ruining families. Peeps can't get help if there is an excess problem due to fines & imprisonment. The cost of that imprisonment is passed to the taxpayer. It might take a while to set up a more viable help system for those who want it but as of now, the law is blocking that & it really is bc of monetary gain...don't kid yourself.
Then don’t get caught but of course pot impairs judgement so it correlates with the law it’s common sense lady or you smoked your brain cells away too understand that
They should keep pot for medical use, legally this opens access to teens/children.
How does legalization make it anymore accessible to minors than it already is?
No more or less than alcohol. Which is arguably a more dangerous substance.
teens already have access to it….what are you on about?
@@pabloescobarschanclas These people never learn history (1920s prohibition/ mob era )
A baby is viable at the moment of conception!
A fertilized egg is not a baby. It’s insane that you don’t know the difference. If a fertilized egg was a baby, there would be not need for a 9 month gestation. Also, most fertilized eggs don’t even implant and the ones the do, don’t do so successfully. The stupidity in your comment is astounding.
A large amount of the ones that do*
It's not going to work for the Dems as this is FL
It worked in kansas and thats a redder state than florida...it worked in ohio, montana and Kentucky all double digit red states
@@javereswilliams2772 No it didn't Dems lost
@@javereswilliams2772I mean it won't win them the state
@@glennmandigo6069 nobody expects biden to win florida
@@glennmandigo6069 Most people don't expect Biden to win Florida but with these on the ballots, it will be closer than it would have been without them. If he wins, that would be the biggest surprise ever. Then for the ballots, both will pass. Conservatives need to realize that the vast majority of Americans aren't conservatives and even those who are conservatives do not agree with extreme views such as abortion bans which is why even in the deepest red states, everytime abortion right was on the ballot, it passed.
Digital underground Same song
Vote yes on 3
Do not vote yes on 3
@@applesmarts I absolutely will
VOTE LIKE GOD IS WATCHING
BECAUSE HE IS

@@centerforheartconsciousliv9154You are deceived in believing that a child only becomes a living being when they take their first breath. We are living beings with a soul from the moment of conception or we would never be able to grow in the womb. 👣
It’s time for Florida to save the American fetus and say no to drugs once and for all!
Both will easily pass bud sorry to disappoint. If weed passed in red states like Missouri & ohio it will easily in a purple state like Florida. Arizona is a similar state & passed with over 60%
Even with the 60% both will pass. Literally 80% of country wants legal weed in 2024 as well as freedom to make your own decisions. Do you love to be controlled or something, can't think for yourself?
@@user-ig9xv8wd4g God willing, they will fail.
Uh... No...
Pro gun. Pro choice. And Pro toke.
It will pass. Florida is very pro-choice despite turning conservative in recent years. Plus abortion right is something supported by the overwhelming majority of Americans. Even in deep red states, abortion right won every single time .
They’re not gonna make weed legal, if they do where would they get all their free labor?
Legal pot caused so many more car accidents.
No it does not
Not true
In Missouri none of these reefer madness issues happened. Weed doesn't impair you like that where you're vision gets affected or coordination gets weird that is alcohol.
Legal pot caused a billion more dollars in my state of Missouri and caused alot of bad roads to finally be fixed & other things to be fixed or built. Clown comment, reminder it's 2024 not 1954.
Anything to back that claim? Any hard data? No? Ok then.
How's that "small" republican goverment working out for you Florida?
Very well thank you.
And once we vote to tie the hands of the legislature on marijuana and abortion, we can then comfortably elect Pro 2A republicans without fear that they will also enact socially conservative legislation (like abortion or weed bans).
Florida is broken. It's time to mend it.
@johncrawford6322 I am a person that you do not know. That was a knee-jerk reaction to my opinion. I am not fighting Disney or being eaten by gators or having mass shootings, I am happy a kid would read a book, not burn them or ban. Your rights are compromised by a little man under the thumb of a smaller man who dictates.
Rubber glue theory. Look it uo.
@@johncrawford6322Florida can use the extra billion in weed revenue like here in Missouri & if you say otherwise you're just an idiot.
@johncrawford6322 No, but my brother does. I tend to get feedback.
Also, I watch the news. I hope they can pick another fight rather than books and Disney.
Florida citizens vote to abolish abortion and marijuana. vote out of office all those Trump republicans Turn Florida BLUE!
Move too cali it’s already the blue state you want it too be so bad go pay those high taxes and enjoy thier 50 dollar eighths
One lady put it pretty succinctly with a bumper sticker which read: "Every baby, a wanted baby."
It was reminiscent of another time and a most civilized country whose attitude could have been: "Every Jew, a wanted Jew."
Say no to legal pot and abortion
Say no to personal freedom. Say yes to government control.
@@MrBoDiggetywhy do you dislike babies?

The term woke and red pilled don't actually mean anything. If they are just virtue signal words.
