Cali brahs...Prop 19... Fully Legalize marijuana

[Faboo]

The time has come.

I dont even smoke marijuana but the benefits of this are so overwhelming to any opposition.

The people who wrote the "argument in favor of prop 19" are 2 retired police chiefs (san jose and LA) and a retired OC superior court judge,

from prop19 on wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Califor...ition_19_(2010)

According to the State of California analysis, the bill will have the following effects.[6]
[edit]Legalization of personal marijuana-related activities
Persons age 21 and older:
May possess up to 1 ounce (28 g) of marijuana for personal consumption.
May use marijuana in a non-public place such as a residence or a public establishment licensed for on site marijuana consumption.
May grow marijuana at a private residence in a space of up to 25 square feet (2.3 m2) for personal use.

[Skeptical_Hippo]

[TheCokeBaron]

[SlippyFist]

that's the idea.

[Faboo]

Brb killing the black market

same thing with alcohol and prohibition...make it illegal it drives everyone underground, make it legal, flood the market with option and say goodbye to crime


also think of all the crime in mexico/south america trying to get pot into the US...now if we can legally grow it or buy it...their demand dries up...less crime there too

<3 trapsbrah so much

[sickkyknarbar]

If this sh!t passing im blazing all the time... jus sayin

[UpInHawaii]

28 grams? Thats a **** load lol. Wish they did this everywhere.

[FlexGunmetal]

This thread happened yesterday and was closed, which is lame.
Hopefully it passes.

[b0ngman]

5x5 area.... you can grow a **** LOAD of weed in that area... easily a couple pounds every four months

edit: I guess the 1 ounce thing would override that though

[Dan916]

Mid-term election = young people don't vote.


I srsly doubt itll pass but if it does, inb4 threads on how to grow marijuana.

[ubermario]

Heheheh, have fun.

[Saadati20]

will vote in november

[dopamine72]

I'm voting for it, I don't smoke but used to. It will be crazy if it passes. Cali needs it to pass though, it will bring in much needed revenue.

Edit- Here is an estimation that is mind blowing. An ounce right now of good **** costs about $300. If this law passes it will cost about $35.....LOL. BRB filling my bathtub up with weed and bathing in it.

[Wisdom187]

before this what state was closer to legalization Massachusetts or California?

massachusetts made anything under an ounce a 100$ fine

[Suhoi]

I'm really excited, I seriously think we can get it passed. I'm gona convince my parents to go vote for it as well.

[ProteinSupreme]

so if this bill passes, marijuana won't be checked on drug tests by employers?

[lllBoneZlll]

in mass if you possess a gram i think or less...it is a 100 fine....which was a big thing in the paper, because cops would write the ticket and no one paid in the first year....like the number was super low....

in short if you get caught with a small amount of weed cops in my state usually wont do anything except confiscate....ive had friends get caught with it over the past year...nothing came of it...

<3 trapsbrah so much

Your posts make me want to vomit. What are you, some 120-lb metrosexual?

[Riceboi]

lol i bet all the dealers are gonna vote no on this so it probably won't pass. I'm voting yes and i don't even smoke.

[FlexGunmetal]

I'm voting for it, I don't smoke but used to. It will be crazy if it passes. Cali needs it to pass though, it will bring in much needed revenue.

Edit- Here is an estimation that is mind blowing. An ounce right now of good **** costs about $350-$400. If this law passes it will cost about $35.....LOL. BRB filling my bathtub up with weed and bathing in it.

what...no.

[Faboo]

pretty awesomee that you can posses and grow weed

do you think itll pass?

i think it will...it might be kinda close but i really think it will. my mom is a 58year old super old fashioned catholic school from k-12th, super religious woman, who is a elementary school teacher, and she see's no problem with legalizing pot either

[Skeptical_Hippo]

not a weed smoker here

how much is an ounce?

Does that mean you can keep an ounce with you in your car?

[HMFIC_BROWSIN]

If this passes, drug dealers in cali will be super pissed (srs)

[whiteboyy09]

same thing with alcohol and prohibition...make it illegal it drives everyone underground, make it legal, flood the market with option and say goodbye to crime

lol pretty sure south america makes more money on harder narcotics than they do on weed
