As far as I can tell California is a total mess and a complete loss as a State. I will not be long and the United States will have to give California back to Mexico. Watch and see, this State is shi!.

Marijuana is not without harmful side effects. One of the most severe is being caught with it.

I knew a guy who killed a kid in a cross walk drunk on Jack Daniels.

"Cali is going to vote to legalize; you can take that to the bank"

While CA is already the biggest producer in the nation, maybe the world, the new law will p ut more weed on the streets everywhere.

Every adult in CA will be able to grow 6 mature plants in their backyard, every year.

That could end up being 6lbs of trimmed bud per person. An impossible amount for any one person to consume. Or even 10.

Where do you think all that extra "boutique" weed is going to go?

Legal or not-I honestly don’t get it how anyone can smoke that stinking weed

Get with the times, old man. Nobody smokes it anymore. Kids today are vaping and eating it.

Tell that to the Colorado police. Such absolute total nonsense.

Ask these same cops to regale you with the destruction they've seen wrought by alcohol.

Now that's a low-info post. Marijuana was never illegal at any time in American history until the Progressives came along.

Go ahead and “legalize” it. The freeloaders can always use another excuse for not being able to find a job. The taxpayers can support them the way we do the drunks.

That would stop the first time you lined up a kid selling dime bags at his Ivy League school up against the wall.

Not if people took vigilantism more seriously.

Who was drunk? The guy or the kid?

I knew a guy who - while drunk on Jack Daniels - killed a kid in a cross walk.

Cannabis is eaten and drank by lots of people, tea, juiced, salad ingredient .

While I think getting high or drunk is dumb, no govt should have the authority to make it a crime to eat a plant. BTW you could eat a bushel of cannabis and you wouldn’t get the least bit high.

I think so too. It will be a hell of a lot easier for the muslims to cut their throats when the time comes if they are stoned and docile drunk and passed out.

To: Kaslin; All

Our government has resettled many Hmong refugees in No. Calif. Siskiyou county. They are suing the county for enforcing the law against pot farms. The Hmong moved in, squat on undeveloped property with no septics or services and with the ACLU, they re going to get away with it. They are targeting laws the county passed to try to control the illegal farms. Pot will become legal if the ‘immigrant community’ wants it. Citizens opinions just do not matter.
