When Alaskan doctors, mayors, businesses, police, hospitals, tribes, chambers of commerce, and other cities in Alaska besides Haines all agree on something, it is worth noting. Take a look at who is opposing the legalization and commercialization of marijuana in Alaska.
If children see their parents partaking in edibles, they are sure to ask about it and want it. When not looking, they will go snooping until they find it. Haines does not have the medical facilities to accommodate these children when an overdose occurs and more so if siblings or a group of children find these edibles.
This is a wrong and costly choice for Alaskans. I know marijuana has some medical benefits, but I do not want to see children become the victim here.
Please vote no on Proposition 2. Thank you.
