Comments on: New Poll Suggests Illinoisans Support Medicinal Marijuana http://blogs.e-rockford.com/inchambers/2008/03/10/new-poll-suggests-illinoisans-support-medicinal-marijuana/ The judge will see you now. Step into Springfield Bureau Chief Aaron Chambers’ chambers for an insider’s view on Illinois politics and government. No, Chambers isn’t a real judge. At least not in the sense of wearing a robe, wielding a gavel and issuing orders. But like a good judge, Chambers tells it like it is.

This is not to defend drug abuse- impaired driving, reporting to work under the influence, domestic violence, child abuse, etc. We are working hard to spread freedom across the globe - maybe we should take some of the filters off of freedom here at home. Those filters weren’t put in place by terrorists or foreign governments. Imagine people deciding how to run their own lives and being OK with others deciding how to run theirs. Freedom is for everyone. Deciding how to act on that freedom should not require conformity to a “one size fits all” government mandate.
