This November, Californians  will once again be called upon to  vote on a potentially nation-changing piece  of state legislation: the legalization of  medicinal marijuana. And our country will  anxiously await the results. While not the first  state to seek this legalization, this  vote has the potential to forever alter  the future of our country for the  worse. That’s right, medicinal marijuana should  not be legalized. I understand the medical  benefits from legalizing this drug, as  well as the economic relief that such  a bill could offer; yet I believe  there is a larger discussion to be  had before voting.  Dangerous effects of  such a legalization would result in the  direct increase of stoned individuals getting  behind the wheel of an automobile. Yet,  for anyone deemed to be under suspicion  for driving as such, there remains no  on-the-spot test to be offered by law  enforcement.
