Proposition 19

Well, there's maybe eight people in Washington that don't get high, right?

Maybe, but I lived in Sacramento when I started voting.

Heh, do tweakers vote?

Heh, do tweakers vote?

I said Sacramento, not Rio Linda.

It's all Central Valley to me.

Would legalisation make any of the paranoia go away?

Probably.  When the med law was passed a LOT of people (including a friend's mom) got immediately arrested and had their shit seized for growing, but the feds backed down.  I don't think people will be so careless in round 2.  As for carrying it and whatnot, I don't think anyone will make a big deal about it.  Obviously large sales that count as trafficking will still be hush-hush and a lot of growers will still keep it indoors, but I think that a lot of the tension of getting caught will dissipate immediately.

Let me ask my lord and savior what he thinks about the issue...



Okay that settles it.  Legalize!!

Up until about a year ago, I smoked all the time. I've smoked with a doctor, a lawyer, and even one time with an off duty cop. The thing alot of people seem to forget is that there are alot of us who are very responsible about it and only do it at home when not going out driving around. Personally, I think it would be better if more people chose to smoke than drink.

That being said, I rarely do it anymore because I'm happier with my life these days and I just don't feel the need to self medicate like I used to. Just like most drugs, it was an escape from reality for me. On the rare occasion that I do it now, it's just to get high and laugh extra hard at a stupid movie before I fall asleep.

I'm all for legalizing it.
