Don't be fooled by anti-Amendment 2 hysteria
John Romano, Tampa Bay Times, 10/18/14

If you trust the polls, medical marijuana in Florida is losing. Or, to put it another way, hysteria is winning.

Turns out, it's a pretty simple equation. The more outlandish the accusations get for opponents of Amendment 2, the less likely common sense will prevail Nov. 4.

Please, don't misunderstand me. There are plenty of commonsense reasons to oppose the amendment. Perhaps enough reasons to convince you to vote no.

The problem is medical marijuana opponents won't risk that fair fight. So they exaggerate. They fabricate. They find legitimate concerns and extrapolate them until they achieve maximum shock and minimum reality.
