Medical marijuana supporters rally in Mount Pleasant

via Midland Daily News

Bob Wood of Sanford sat in a folding chair outside the Isabella County Building holding up a "legalize it" sign for driver-bys to see. Wood was one of many taking part in a medical marijuana rally Tuesday afternoon in Mount Pleasant outside the Isabella County Building. "When voters passed this law, they did not intend for police to attack caregivers and patients," Wood said. "It was not the intention of voters." The medical marijuana law, which has been called vague and unclear, has been under fire by local and state authorities and politicians since voters passed it in 2008. Medical marijuana advocate Brandon McQueen spoke at the event. He said it is a personal health care issue. "It's the right to choose the health care they want," he said.
