Boo! Get hip like Cali! LOL. Even though state lawmakers have moved to make changes, Gov. Chris Christie said he will fight to prevent his administration’s proposed medical marijuana restrictions from being removed.
The governor expressed concerned of too lax of regulations and was citied as saying he did not want “a de facto legalization of marijuana†for New Jersey at a Tuesday press conference. There are currently a total of 13 states that allow medical marijuana.
Christie cites being a former U.S. attorney as reasoning for his anti-marijuana platform; though New Jersey passed the bill the day before he took his governing position in January.
“We’re not going to have a head shop in every town and quack doctors writing prescriptions for people with headaches to get marijuana,†said the New Jersey governor. “That’s not going to happen on my watch…I’m for them getting it from doctors who’ve been treating them all along, not from doctors parachuted into the situation with a profit-making motive like we’ve seen happen in California and Colorado.â€

I am so tired of hearing that the Govener (Chris Christie) is holding up the medical marijuana law. if he himself was in severe pain, i think things would be different. i have multiple sclerosis and crohn’s disease. I feel so much better When I smoke medical marijuana! the governor just does not understand what we have to go through.this 10% thc is crap! I am asking as a person who suffers,Please make this bill happen quickly. It is time to be real of what is going on.
I’m a disabled vet with Glacouma. I was in a radiation accident in 1985 while in the navy, I have severe headaches along with glacouma. I have been told that since I go the the VA and see many doctors in the eye clinic you never see the same one. That the NJ Legeslature has to look into seeing if I am able to get this to ease the tension and pain. I’ve been Diagnosed since 1985 and have been getting a VA pension since 1988 when I was honorable discharged from the Navy. I am a 70% disabled vet.
