It helps to keep the reader engaged instead of just throwing facts at them. https://nowcomment.com/documents/133763?scroll_to=1296111 https://nowcomment.com/documents/133763?scroll_to=1296111 Wed, 20 Mar 2019 11:06:17 -0400 Good Point https://nowcomment.com/documents/122431?scroll_to=1190145 https://nowcomment.com/documents/122431?scroll_to=1190145 Tue, 18 Dec 2018 10:29:44 -0500 Very radical approach to claims that cannot be verified. https://nowcomment.com/documents/122017?scroll_to=1190115 https://nowcomment.com/documents/122017?scroll_to=1190115 Tue, 18 Dec 2018 10:25:27 -0500 The Patriot Act has brought unnecessary attention to local terrorism, possibly glorifying it. https://nowcomment.com/documents/122889?scroll_to=1190078 https://nowcomment.com/documents/122889?scroll_to=1190078 Tue, 18 Dec 2018 10:22:13 -0500 Some people think that this will not make any difference. https://nowcomment.com/documents/122857?scroll_to=1189605 https://nowcomment.com/documents/122857?scroll_to=1189605 Mon, 17 Dec 2018 16:40:55 -0500 One Solution is Encouraging Local and Less Biased News https://nowcomment.com/documents/122857?scroll_to=1189600 https://nowcomment.com/documents/122857?scroll_to=1189600 Mon, 17 Dec 2018 16:40:29 -0500 Partisan Cable News Can Create Misleading Information. https://nowcomment.com/documents/122857?scroll_to=1189592 https://nowcomment.com/documents/122857?scroll_to=1189592 Mon, 17 Dec 2018 16:39:14 -0500 Identity Politics are the source of this divide https://nowcomment.com/documents/122850?scroll_to=1189582 https://nowcomment.com/documents/122850?scroll_to=1189582 Mon, 17 Dec 2018 16:37:21 -0500 This is the Problem https://nowcomment.com/documents/122850?scroll_to=1189561 https://nowcomment.com/documents/122850?scroll_to=1189561 Deep schisms between different ideas, with minimal to no common ground. Mon, 17 Dec 2018 16:34:09 -0500 Overall all articles came off as semi fact based, but mainly in support of proposition two. When making an argument on something like this both sides should be presented allowing the reader to come to there own conclusions. Article 2 is especially biased. https://nowcomment.com/documents/116270?scroll_to=1134875 https://nowcomment.com/documents/116270?scroll_to=1134875 Thu, 18 Oct 2018 11:17:52 -0400 The ability to grow on ones own has no garuntees of being regulated or how to keep control on not allowing redistributing. https://nowcomment.com/documents/116270?scroll_to=1134873 https://nowcomment.com/documents/116270?scroll_to=1134873 Thu, 18 Oct 2018 11:15:30 -0400 Openly admitting that other states have had difficulty with the issue creates a well rounded argument, admitting where what this author thinks is important and being recognizable of the shortcomings of the route that cannabis has taken in other states https://nowcomment.com/documents/116270?scroll_to=1134871 https://nowcomment.com/documents/116270?scroll_to=1134871 Thu, 18 Oct 2018 11:12:05 -0400 The number of dispensaries allowed has dropped and will likely continue to until the bill is truly passed or reaches a point in which financially and legally it would make sense to use dispensaries. https://nowcomment.com/documents/116270?scroll_to=1134868 https://nowcomment.com/documents/116270?scroll_to=1134868 Thu, 18 Oct 2018 11:09:50 -0400 I disagree with how this article suggests that it is almost foolish to not agree with proposition 2, even though evidently there are over 30% of people who strongly disagree with it. It is shown blatantly in this sentence https://nowcomment.com/documents/116270?scroll_to=1134120 https://nowcomment.com/documents/116270?scroll_to=1134120 Wed, 17 Oct 2018 15:19:51 -0400 The people allowed to obtain medical marijuana must be in legitimate need of its medical qualities and this needs to be closely regulated. https://nowcomment.com/documents/116270?scroll_to=1134119 https://nowcomment.com/documents/116270?scroll_to=1134119 Wed, 17 Oct 2018 15:18:00 -0400 This is interesting that only 3 percent of people surveyed don't have an opinion. Which means many people do and also probably feel very strongly about one side or the other. https://nowcomment.com/documents/116270?scroll_to=1134103 https://nowcomment.com/documents/116270?scroll_to=1134103 Wed, 17 Oct 2018 15:15:12 -0400 The form of ingestion and banning the smoking of medical marijuana is key to maintaining the well known clean state of Utah clean, and creates a simple regulation for those who need medical marijuana to have it while not causing a public problem. https://nowcomment.com/documents/116270?scroll_to=1134101 https://nowcomment.com/documents/116270?scroll_to=1134101 Wed, 17 Oct 2018 15:13:31 -0400 If it were to pass it would be heavily scrutinized and thoroughly revised in the legislative process. The vote for Proposition 2 is more of a way of seeing if the population agrees or disagrees. https://nowcomment.com/documents/116270?scroll_to=1134100 https://nowcomment.com/documents/116270?scroll_to=1134100 Wed, 17 Oct 2018 15:10:50 -0400 Making the form of ingestion not available for smoking is key to regulating the use and retaining the safe environment Utah is so well known for https://nowcomment.com/documents/116270?scroll_to=1134098 https://nowcomment.com/documents/116270?scroll_to=1134098 Wed, 17 Oct 2018 15:08:43 -0400
