ok, marijuana has never killed anybody. yeah you might get stoned and lazy but who doesn’t like to relax? isn’t that why people smoke cigs? to unwind? second-hand smoke from cigs kill more people per year than all drugs put together… weed is natural and deserves to be legalized for more than just medicinal purposes. they should take away alcohol and cigs and just keep weed.

I agree with chris and the Insider….the drugs they make are very dangerous and have too many side effects…why are those Strong, Hard drugs OK? Becuase they have a greater profit margin? Or because we need a steady supply of Inmates for cheap labor?

If it moves, tax it. If it stops, subsidize it.

As for “breaking” federal laws, Calif. should use the 10th Amendment to validate their move and force the Fed to leave them alone.

The only reason marijuana is not legal is that once you have a couple of seeds that you can plant how does the government tax you after that?? It isn’t quite as tough as brewing your own beer!! Think about it!!

A comment and then a question, then I’ll hang up. I don’t think a state can legalize reefer. As I understand it medical marijuana has received an exemption from prosecution under federal drug laws, but otherwise its illegal. A state can’t exempt themselves from federal laws. The question - does anyone know who grows medical marijuana?

I think everything should be legal, and we should stop trying to tell others what to eat and what to drink. Too much gov’t intrusion, in my opinion.

Ah… California, land of milk and honey. And a bunch of stonies and crime. But hey, if that’s what they want then go for it. Once pandora’s dime bag is opened hard to close.

Well, they should take all those *$$! Pharm ads off of TV because there isn’t even time enough during an ad to list all the side effects and drug interactions. THOSE should be illegal.

Advertising marijuana would probably have restrictions like those on tobacco; no TV ads. But think of those billboards. Now that could be as distracting to drivers as texting…

Think of the jobs it could create…I’d rather see marijuana commercials than the ones for Viagra.
