From today’s comments on the Iowa Patients for Medical Marijuana Facebook page:
Beth Anne Wood This is what happens when doctors are afraid. People continue to suffer not only from their debilitating medical condition, the financial toll of seeking help and the stress can create further issues. This should NOT be a problem!

Kerry Sturm Shame on the Dr’s that won’t step up for their patients!

Wendy Borchardt PTSD is a serious dibilitating illness but that goes to show kim reynolds & Linda Upmeyer doesnt support our military or she would voice her support… she talks the talks and cant walk the walk.

Adam Heeren Does living in Iowa count as untreatable pain?

Jason Karimi Yes.
Terri Meadows Geez why is Iowa such a giant stick in the mud in regards to marijuana? The rest of the world is growing up Iowa, get your shit together! #notaproudiowan
Michelle Anderson Probly good they are as there is no other drug that requires permission slips to take it
Carla Mercuri This was a problem in Illinois and still is a problem even after switching it to not prescribing it and just certifying the condition over a year ago. We have clinics in Illinois that just deal with certifying medical mj patients because there was a ne…See more

Gertie S. Kinney Mine wants more research he said. I told him it works for me so that’s enough. He declined that answer. I have RA and a shit ton of other physical issues.
Angie Surovy Give up all that money for drugs and pharmaceutical companies will probably never happen. Not to mention might help with opioid crisis. Government runs the Dr.s now.
Gertie S. Kinney Angie Surovy I agree. The doctors belong to the hospitals, who belong to drug companies.

Jesse Van Ness Not impressed. Its a greed strict iowa mindset. This place is so behind and stubborn.
Michelle Jacobs-Anderson Iowa did not approve any medical marijuana really
They gave the most tiniest possible allowance to make it appear they want to help people, and that was only for elections most likely.
While still they realy.havent done anything useful. To those advocating for us all Keep on trying

Alonzo Butler It’s just an insult to the voters who know they’re being scammed. It’s also an insult to the voters intelligence. Arrogant, bought and sold politicians

Brett Brandow Alonzo Butler voters? We don’t get to vote on this matter in Iowa if we could we would have full legalization like Colorado but we have to beg and plead with our lawmakers here in iowa! We have no voice in iowa

Bill Kovach It’s a bad joke, a very very lame attempt to help anyone.

Joey Oxenfield Too many people still believe it’s the gateway drug. Unfortunately we have big pharma pushing back, dear God we wouldn’t want to use a plant. No surprise here.

Jim Carey Younger people need to get into office. These stubborn folks just don’t see the all around benefits it could have on the state. But then they get pissed when taxes go up and budget cuts come.

Jon Goldsmith they see it its the pham companies linging their pockets they dont want lose all that cash they was paid
Jim Carey Jon Goldsmith that is true, they need to step outside the box either way still going to pull in decent amount of cash.

Joel Diehl I agree with you all but….at least…FINALLY…….its a start!

Randy Lenz Joel Diehl I’m not a weed guy, it gets in the way of my drinking. With that said I dont have an issue with it and compared to opioids it is a much less dangerous alternative. I think if they really want this to happen in iowa they need to get the fa…See more

Robert Overturf As long as there is greater benefit to be derived from the black market products I don’t see the options that Iowa presents as viable, but hopefully it helps destigmatize it a bit.

Brekka Lee Sad when Utah a very conservative state passes better laws.

Tina Foote Why can’t we all be like The Good O’le Willie Nelson & toke it up.. I dont smoke but I have enough aches & pains that are life long that would approve me for the medical but none of the dr.s here in the SW of Iowa do not even want to sign up as a physician to prescribe it.
I hate taking all the dang pills but no other option is available that is pure from earth…. grrrr….

Larry Peney Stewart As long as the Republicans are in power, we will never have marijuana available.

Larry Peney Stewart Big Pharma money! Kim will not support it!
The people have spoken! SAD

Laura Nott North Carolina’s is equally lame.
Jim Carey From a report I read last week, looks like the government is looking into options on decriminalize as scheduled 1.
Chris Paisley Nope these blind policy makers will never be for the people
Jon Goldsmith when they add conditions i ll be impressed till then they are dumbasses

Karen Copeland Iowa is a coward

Snow Bazzell You cant grow either
Snow Bazzell Iowa got fucked. I got fucked IN Iowa. I moved from my home state (Iowa) because I did 3 years in PRISON for a PLANT that kills my seizures and tumors. I moved to Oregon. I dont feel like a criminal and have to face death from my medical conditions here. You guys didnt get cannabis, you got refined pharms from ONE company (monopoly) that is shilled through bullshit dispensaries. (Front channels for the monopoly, same candy dish).
Shame on Iowa’s BS government. I can grow plants like these in my back yard.
Trust me. Iowa got shafted.

Chris Basler Its bullshit and an embarrassment. Its dangling a carrot in front of the donkey.

Roy D James Hence the reason most get our medicine from the streets. Not only is it cheaper but with high thc content. Fuck the government for role in it! It should be legal all the way across the nation.
Snow Bazzell Inmate number 6516639. Fuck Iowa
Brett Brandow It’s a damn joke
Blake Graham It’s definitely bull shit!
Stephanie Dawson It was just something, anything, to get us off of Braindead’s ass, so he passed it. And many fell for it. Many more are obviously smarter than him though, and know this will do very little for those who need it most.
And considering there are very few doctors in the state who know much about it isn’t helping this either. It’s like it’s destined to fail so those in “power” can say, “See, not very many need it so we’re not going to take this any further”.

Michael McDowell They are dragging there feet because Iowa wants it to remain illegal so there able to keep there private prison investors satisfied by keeping the prison system full of non violent people that loose the ability to make a change once there arrested they can’t vote. It’s how they control the population of the people they consider the minority in or nation. People that use it for medical reasons are and have been loosen there voice in the fight for the truth for last 70 years or more. Because there labeled criminals and are given no rights back, it’s Taxation without representation of the vast majority of American, we need to go back to natural medicine and Cannabis is the begaining.
Snow Bazzell Michael McDowell I got sentenced to prison in Iowa by a judge that gains financial support from these private prisons. Check out Iowas Cannabis Tax Stamp. I got a 5 year charge.
The judge that sentenced me owns stocks in the private prisons. He paid himself by sentencing me to HIS prison pretty much

Penny Lane Schroeder I’m not shocked. Most of the elected officials in this state are stuck in the dark ages.
