In April 2016, Broke millionaire and drug war profiteer Mel Sembler said he would raise $10 million to defeat amendment 2.

Sembler Told a TBO reporter that: “We’re trying to save lives and people’s brains,” the Drug Free America founder said. “It’s not a medicine.”

“Mel The Moocher’s” reasoning for opposing Amendment 2 (Florida’s medical marijuana ballot initiative) appear to lack any rational basis beyond the dirty profit motive.

States with medical cannabis laws have 25 percent less opioid overdoses than those without, and Florida is leading the nation in a raging prescription pill overdose epidemic. Medical-cannabis legalization is also associated with reductions veteran suicides, and does not increase teen use, research shows.

Cannabis’ medical use is supported by a majority of U.S. doctors; 56 percent support full legalization. Twenty-four states now have medical-cannabis laws, covering hundreds of millions of people.

“Mel The Moocher” did not respond to requests for comment. (figures he’s kind of a douche bag)
