Amendment 3 campaign warns of fentanyl-laced marijuana, but some call it a myth [13]
09/29/2024

Sheriff Young from Gadsen County supports Amendment 3 while 65 other sheriffs strongly oppose. Young claims regulation would elimiate fentanyl poisoning yet there are no documented cases that he is willing to release to back-up his claims.

Young has referenced a mass fentanyl poisoning blamed for at least six deaths in Gadsden County as being linked to fentanyl-laced marijuana, but his office declined to release records related to the case, citing an ongoing investigation.

Amendment 3 Is a threat to the health and safety of all Floridians [17]
09/28/2024

This November, Amendment 3 will be on the Florida ballot, proposing a radical change to our state's drug policies and making recreational marijuana legal. This new policy would make Florida the state with the largest legal limit, meaning an individual (including potential drug dealers) could possess enough marijuana for 100 joints and law enforcement would be limited in their ability to protect those who are targets of the dealers, including our youth.
Throughout my 33 years in law enforcement, I have seen firsthand how drugs have ruined lives and endangered our communities. So, believe me when I say Amendment 3 poses serious threats to the wellbeing of Floridians, and the associated risks outweigh any benefits.

2024 Amendment 3 [2]
Opinion: Here’s why marijuana should not be reclassified as a lower-risk drug [34]
06/28/2024

However, popularity doesn’t mean the product is safe: The Department of Health and Human Services recommended [35] the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) reclassification, but there are inescapable health risks associated with regular marijuana use [36] including a higher risk [37] of stroke and heart attacks; negative impacts [38] on attention, memory and learning in young people; an increased risk of developing schizophrenia [39]; and harm [40] to fetal brain development.
The number of daily marijuana users is now higher [41] than the number of people who consume alcohol daily. While alcohol can also be abused (as regulations on sale and consumption reflect), there is increasing evidence [42] from serious long-term effects of high-potency THC [43] (delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol, the primary psychoactive ingredient in the cannabis plant) marijuana use such as cardiac and lung problems [44].
Health concerns, especially [45] among the African American population, are reason enough to object to the reclassification of marijuana as a Schedule III drug. Unfortunately, many people are choosing the grandiosity effect [46] of smoking weed over the established health risks.
