Finally I have more hope in humanity. I always thought Cali would be the first. Congrats to all who helped make it happen. I know the feds will try and fuck with it but they can't stop it. We now have 18 states with medical and it just keeps growing. Domino effect I see coming.
Congrats to Colorado and Washington, hopefully Cali catches up, it was voted down here last year.Quote:

In about 5 various polls I researched within the last 2 years from legitimate sources the average % of people wanting to decriminalize marijuana in the province of BC was 80%. It is estimated as a 6 Billion Dollar per year industry in our province, yet the only ones profiting are criminals. And considering we're in a 60 Billion dollar debt it doesn't make sense not to legalize it.
How marijuana is a schedule 1 drug, while cocaine and methamphetamine are schedule 2 drugs in America hurts my brain. At least medical marijuana, and the hemp industry is legal here.
Good for those states legalizing it.
I feel like I'm taking crazy pills or something.
Awesomeness!
For college English* lol sorry
This is awesome news, I'm most interested in how they will handle RNs and other licensed professionals who choose to partake. Because if everyone involved is inteliigent about it, I can see this spread like wildfire all over the nation.
And my suggestion for any healthcare or other workers who deal with having people's lives in their hands: showing up completely blasted should be the same as if they showed up completely drunk, revoke their license. Those of us who would partake responsibly shouldn't be punished for what those who are not responsible choose to do.
I think colorado legalized it for recreational use every adult can have up to one ounce. I loved watching those republican and tea party ass holes suck a "Big Blue Dick" lol
Could I get a copy of that paper just to read.Quote:

it'll be interesting to see how the federal government handles this situation with multiple states making this decision and the looming of more following this trend. We could see an uprising against the nation if more states pass such legislation and the federal government continues to prosecute marijuana as a schedule 1 drug.
And in my opinion it's not quite fair to compare marijuana to alcohol in terms of professionalism and functionality. I think the affects of alcohol are much more debilitating to performance than THC. It'll be interesting to see how socially this may change the mindset towards weed. Granted they'll be a bunch of people who get to stoned too fast in transition to this new era of legislation but if you've smoked weed regularly for a year or so you'd probably rather said individual to be stoned rather than sober. It depends on the individuals involved, but just my 2 cents.
As per the money lost in government revenue ... I agree with Tommy Chong ... fuck that ... if you are selling it to others fine then you should fall under the agriculture quality control laws like other produce and plants ... but if its personal growing ... I should be able to myself, without government involvement ... I can grow carrots, tomatoes, potatoes etc ...right ?, but not weed ? But fuckin a to it being legalized...
That is for surely badass. I read they were going to make it 12 bucks a gram though. -_- At least you can grow six plants yourself at home. But stoners break rules, obviously.
