TAMMY SHOPE, Springfield: “If you had a family member who was suffering, you’d want them to get whatever relief they needed. Looking at it that way, I’d say yes, it should be legalized for medical use only.”

LORRIE HUYSMAN, Washington C.H.: “If they legalize it, where are they free to smoke it? I don’t want to breathe it. It’s hard enough controlling cigarette smoke.”

KRISTIN KINCAID, Huber Heights: “No, because if they legalize it here, they’ll legalize it everywhere, and then people will be using it for everything but medical use.”

LISA MOTZ, Washington C.H.: “No. It just creates other issues. You don’t allow drunk drivers, but how are you going to stop someone from driving under the influence of medical marijuana?”

BRANDON CLARK, Dayton: “For medical use? No. But I do think there would be a lot of drug dealers out of jobs, because this would be competition, and the government would just get richer off of it.”
