For those unfamiliar, change.org is a very interesting site to petition your officials about things that are important to YOU. However, others can also find your petition, think you make sense, and sign along with you.
Here is one that is quickly gaining steam, and rightfully so. For anyone in Michigan...you don't need to come wave your flag, but the title alone should clue you in what this petition is about!
The petition reads:
Honor The Will of the People
Greetings,
I just signed the following petition addressed to: The Legislature and Attorney General of The State Of Michigan.
----------------
Honor The Will of the People
In 2008, voters in the State of Michigan, approved the Michigan Medical Marijuana Act by a 63% margin. Since then over 100,000 Michiganders have entered the program. Since that time hundreds of innocent patients and caregivers have been persecuted by police and prosecutors. Some have been throw in prison for simply being in the program. Others have had their property seized without due process. Now the legislature is seeking to expand the power of law enforcement. They have created legislation that will cause patients to be arrested for simply following the will of the people. These lawmakers are playing politics with the health and safety of the sick and dying. Please sign this petition to allow friends and family to continue to care for the sick. Stop the politicians from undoing the will of the people.

Sincerely,
XXXXXX
I did not start this, however, please share this amongst your friends and family.
