"So much for your hyperventilating."
Actually, I gave up hyperventilating a whole long time ago. And as for "Sourceless bloviation," I bow to your expertise in bloviating. I notice it virtually every time you post, so as far as I can see, you are the unchallenged master at bloviating. I am humbled that you would even begin to equate me with you.
Here in beautiful, off-the-track a lot, Cali, we, the People, passed a Medical Marijuana law some years ago. No sooner had we done that than the Feds stepped in and started busting growers and users both. You surely recall, as you inhabited the threads about those cases as they were reported... full of glee, you were, you and your cohorts of evil. Same thing when Fedgov spent many taxpayer dollars fighting the Nevada initiative. Remember? Sure you do... so you KNOW what I said is hardly sourceless. But that's you, isn't it, Roscoe? Lie your butt off and hope no one notices. Yes, you're one of the world's champion bloviators, Roscoe, and the whole of FR (minus the other brain-rotted WODDIES) knows it. It's a pity, really, because all the energy you expend trying to defend the indefensible could be used to help dismantle the welfare state and shrink government back to its Constitutional limits. But I suspect that's NOT what you really want, is it, Roscoe? Be honest here, you LIKE big government, because without it you might have to dig deep to find a marketable skill, right? Because thuggery only goes so far in a free society... like just barely to your own doorstep.
Which contained the following ballot statement by the Proposition's proponents:
MARIJUANA WILL STILL BE ILLEGAL FOR NON-MEDICAL USEYou and facts are like oil and water.Proposition 215 DOES NOT permit non-medical use of marijuana. Recreational use would still be against the law. Proposition 215 does not permit anyone to drive under the influence of marijuana.
Proposition 215 allows patients to cultivate their own marijuana simply because federal laws prevent the sale of marijuana, and a state initiative cannot overrule those laws.
