Prop 19 udates--

I was hoping this would pass but who really cares if it gets legalized in one state....they need to work on at least decriminalizing it in all the states

the whole point is that, If legal in one state, it becomes much easier to decrim/legalize in another state. highschool gov't taught us that the states are, basically, testbeds for legislation which can work nationally

our vices are so poorly governed.

I don't think it lost because all of the dealers teamed up and voted together.

So now what happens? Are they just going to keep putting it on the ballot every election until it passes?

You dont think 6% of those who voted no, were dealers and dispensary owners?

fuck

[MonkeyMadness]

So if pot was legal the state would profit from it and put money into schools, roads, etc.? I geuss people hate the children.

Oh ya as you can see that worked out well with the lotto too...:roll:

there were many reasons, not the least of which was dispensaries and street dealers

And that is exactly what they're gonna do. Colorado and Massachusetts advocates are going to put something into action within the next year or two, Cali advocates will get it back on the ballot for 2012.

They're gonna keep putting it up until the citizens are tired of seeing it (or until the citizens finally get their heads out of their asses about cannabis)

Bummer. I think the outcome would have been different if there weren't so many greedy dealers and dispensaries.

[imsotyerred]

i'm disappointed in you californians who didn't make it out

and the cannabis users who voted against

[HarryPotter]

Voting isn't hip anymore brah, everyone does it.

Maybe it failed because 49% of 18-34 y.o.'s in California haven't bothered to register to vote.

big problem in this state, i dont fucking get it.. no one wants to have their voice heard? honestly takes a few minutes to vote...

now all the people who didnt register will start bitching about it not passing.
