im hoping for the best for you guys over there im in the mid west for now, and not looking so good. if you read up on all laws youll prob know which state i am in, it only has gone through the house and needs the senates approval, wait im high maybe vice versa crap, i should go look it up and come back for final word on it. but yes im a bit ticked off its not a killing substance why label it as one and lock people up for manyy years for it. me and my brother dont even talk right now becuase he is hiding and i want him to just get a lawyer and crap, its hard so i hope you get through this

it is very sad to see loved ones and friends run into legal issues over something God put on this earth to aid and help us....we have battled hard and i believe today will truly end with a victorius shout from all those involved. i hope someday we can all sit back without fear of ramifications due to smoking or possesing a weed

I'm all antsy to find out how it turns out. If it passes weed will be just like alcohol with commercial licenses and retail sales. Each person over 21 will also be able to have 10 mature plants at any time (that's 20 plants for a married couple) for personal use. All for a $50oz., or $1.80g, tax. Fair trade off.

I'm not some hippie or long time pot smoker... But to me , the fact that growing a plant is ILLEGAL is nonsense. Whether the plant is dangerous or not, it should never be illegal to grow something that naturally exists on this earth. EVEN if it WAS dangerous, the choices that we make for ourselves should be exactly that... What we put in our a bodies is our own choice, it should only matter when it starts putting other peoples lives at risk, and as far as I'm concerned, marijuana is a long ways away from that. As Ron Paul said, the constitution isn't here to regulate the people of the united states, its here to PROTECT the people of the united stats from government control. As an ex military service member I feel if this country doesn't decriminalize marijuana in the next 10 years, we will all really be in for a treat. Sorry for the rant, just felt the need to get that off my chest

Well I'm in michigan where it has passed and the city of saginaw just tried to suspend
people applying for cards & growing for 6 months out of every year. There was a huge protest over the weekend because this city was trying to overrun the state law! Finally the city dropped the issue sat night. In august in the city of Shelby a couple with cancer was raided & arrested because they had one plant over the legal card carrying limit. My point is even if it does pass don't expect things to be like in cali over night. It's very sad but I can almost guarantee that if it does pass there, the people that need it the most will still be challenged. It's been almost two years here in MI and it takes at least 6 months to even get a pending case number let alone an approval. I'm still crossing all my fingers & toes for ya!
And mmj is legal in cali madcatter

Hearing shit like that makes me sick. Everyday you hear of people getting raided that went through the proper steps (that the state decided on) to get a LEGAL medical card, and their STILL getting harassed for it. Specially when they have a terminal illness. Do we really want to be labeled "America... The country that slams citizens with terminal illness for smoking a natural substance..." . I hate feeling a sense of helplessness against the direction this government is headed.

Well they have a lot of illness qualifiers here in MI but getting approved for them quite another story
