Rokita is a loser, full stop. States like Illinois and Michigan are laughing while counting their millions of dollars in tax revenue. I guess Hoosiers will continue to be losers too…watching local police use taxpayer money to harass business owners instead of capitalizing on a fast-growing industry. Is this what small government looks like?
Delta 8 and “grey area” drugs like it are causing a statewide mental epidemic everywhere. Delta 8, much like Spice, causes users to experience serious psychotic episodes which leads many users to be placed in already over crowded jails and over crowed mental health facilities. There should be a statewide Junior High and High School awareness program that runs consistently thru the school systems on the dangers of these so called “legal” drugs. This is not a political issues…this is a serious issue that is effecting so many people…these drugs, and those selling them, have no interest in your political affiliations, race, creed, sex, or whatever. They just want the profits that come at the users mental health expense! BEAWRE OF DETLA 8 and so called “legal drugs” that you can buy on every street corner in our Great State of Indiana……As to the comment above, where is your proof..while there may be income coming to the state, what is your awareness of the negative impact to the users, increase in jail populations and mental health clinics from the legalization? Do some research and you might really learn something. Also, what MI and IL are offering in the form of legal marijuana is much different than Delta 8 and related products.
100%.
B. DOUGLAS M.: You say to Nate R., “Where’s your proof…” I say to you, “Where is YOUR proof?” You cite all these “dangers” of Delta-9 but you have no proof and no sources!. So we’re just supposed to take your word for it that people who utilize these products end up in mental institutions and going to jail for committing crimes?!
Also, in your follow up statement below you thank AG Rokita for, “…looking out for the best interests of our youth…who are negatively affected by these so called “legal” drugs.” These businesses are not affecting our youth because these products are restricted to age 21+. Historically, if youths want to get these or similar products, the get them illegally as they always have. And they will continue to do so because that’s what some young people do, and always have.
So either show some proof and get your facts straight, or stop spewing misinformation!
But somehow tobacco is ok?
As a follow-up, thank you Todd Rokita for looking out for the best interests of our youth and so many others who are negatively affected by these so called “legal” drugs. I’m sure a very large majority of law enforcement and mental health professionals would thank you as well!
Go away.
B. DOUGLAS M.: Your description of the effects of Delta-8 (Sorry I mistakenly typed Delta-9 earlier) reminds me of the propaganda film “Reefer Madness”, which is now considered a cult classic comedy.
B. Douglas M. is probably ol’ Teddy Rokita himself! 🙂
