Severe asthma attacks
John McCain and Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Barack Obama oppose the legalization of marijuana.
Desiree Kelly, president of WSU's Anti-Drug Wayne student group, said that marijuana legalization is a 'terrible idea' because, once it's made legal, people will take advantage of it.
Kelly said that sometimes doctors write prescriptions for symptoms as small as a headache or a sore throat.
'I know it's medically proven to help with cancer patients, asthma and glaucoma, but people are not ready to handle this responsibility,' she said. 'More laws should be put in place.'
Stewart said she understands the potential for abuse if the proposal becomes law, but said there are pros and cons to every decision and the only reasons that prevent marijuana legalization are 'politics and money.'
'I found a happy medium that works for me,' Stewart said. 'If I have to smoke a joint so I can get out and not be in a bubble any more, then that's what I'm going to do.'
If the proposal passes, Michigan would become the 13th state to sanction the use of marijuana for medicinal reasons.
In Michigan, the growing and using of marijuana for medical purposes is legal under local ordinance in Detroit, Ann Arbor, Ferndale and Traverse City, when authorized by a physician. But state law trumps local law
