Whether You Like it or Not - California Will Legalize Pot Next Year
(That seems to be the idea behind a new article out today)
According to a well known, and outspoken leader from the left its a good bet that the state will legalize Pot next year.
Part of the reason?
The state needs...
Leftists love to play the race card.
>Leftists love to play the race card.
Yes they do. That’s how the drug wars got started.
They said we needed a nanny state to protect us from the opium smoking Chinese and pot smoking Mexicans.
See you at the next Code Pinko meeting, Mr. Nanny State Supporter!
>That’s a lot of dope for a Day Care Center.
Yes it is. Prohibition always creates black markets that will do such things.
Only idiotic Communist central planner types think that trying to stop supply from meeting demand is a good idea, or could ever work.
>How many will be shut down by local authorities pursuant to state law this month?
Like I keep trying to tell you, NOT ENOUGH TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN THE PRICE OR AVAILABILITY.
You can’t win this war through attrition. Your ‘body counts’ impress no one. You won’t even go down the street and freep a single one of these drug dens. No wonder the drugs won; what a pathetic display.
Nope. Our existing drug laws were enacted in 1970, not 1937.
Dishonesty and the race card. That's all that you on pro-drug left have got.
Its society's fault, not the criminals' fault. Liberal logic 101.
Sourceless assertion, naturally.
I never specified ‘existing’ drug laws. I specified ‘got started.’ You can’t dispute the racist origin of the drug laws, so you dissemble. What a pathetic display.
Impotent rage, that’s all you drug-warrior dead-enders have got left.
Supply and demand will meet at a certain price point. Economics 101.
Only Marxists say different. See you at the next Code Pink meeting, Mr. “I think the government can and should control the invisible hand.”

You can easily verify it by calling up any of the numerous drug den downs the street from you. You know, the ones you don't have the ability or guts to do anything about except whine, complain, and impotently vent on the internet.
The voters of California have expressed their desire that medical cannabis be available in their state.
The owner of this board believes that is their Right.
Your stubborn refusal to recognize their rights, in violation of the 10th Amendment, is shameful.
Maybe you should find some pro-jackboot thug board where people will agree with you, and you won't have to insult them with your silly name-calling nonsense.
Too bad I can't think of any. Only TPTB support prohibition. No grassroots sites, right, left, or center, do. Maybe LGF is still that authoritarian and stupid. Good luck finding any place in all cyberspace where people think like you do about this subject.
Must I remind you:
"The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people."
So you were talking about nonexistent laws. How dishonest of you.
I specified got started.
What disengenous spin doctoring. The CSA was not "started" by any earlier law.
I don't see any reference to San Diego in the picture you posted. You lie so transparently.
And when the cost of providing that "supply" rises and exceeds that price point, the dopers start bawling.
BTW, are you talking about Propostion 215? It didn't permit sales. And when it appeared on the ballot the proponents explicitly stated in the ballot arguments:
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.
They also stated that:
Proposition 215 does not allow ''unlimited quantities of marijuana to be grown anywhere." It only allows marijuana to be grown for a patient's personal use. Police officers can still arrest anyone who grows too much, or tries to sell it.Pesky old facts.
>I don’t see any reference to San Diego
San Diego is within the US, smart guy. Call the drug den down the street if you doubt the $300/oz price. You just look like a stubborn fool disputing common sense, like the fact that the sky is blue and weed costs $300/oz.
Keep moving the goalposts all you like, sport.
I’ve already scored, your impotent dissembling notwithstanding.
>And when the cost of providing that “supply” rises
Purely hypothetical. Weed prices are more stable than gas or gold. It’s been $300/oz for at more than a decade.
But don’t take my, or THMQ’s, word for it.
Visit one of those drug dens and ask them yourself, if you really need the reality of the facts on the ground to slap you across your recalcitrant face.
And the San Diego police are shutting down dope dens in San Diego, not the "US" at large.
Your lies lack legs.
Nobody is impressed or even cares in the least about your legal nit-picking.
The facts are on the ground, yet you refuse to acknowledge them. Isn’t Reality Denial Syndrome a liberal trait of sore losers and democrat crybabies?
Stop supporting the unconstitutional war on drugs. Or don’t. It doesn’t matter, because... Whether You Like it or Not - California Will Legalize Pot Next Year!
[Do you want to legalize only HALF the dope in this country?

>San Diego police are shutting down dope dens in San Diego, not the “US” at large.
San Diego’s are not the only police in the nation shutting down dope dens.
What a pathetic display of false logic.
Have you called one of your many, many local dope dens to ask if the Sept raids had any effect on the price of pot?
Why not? Too chicken of being proven impotent in the face of oncoming, inevitable legalization?
"Fifty-eight percent of women and 57 percent of men who were arrested in San Diego County last year tested positive for an illegal substance, the lowest rate since testing began in 2000, according to a study released Tuesday by the San Diego Association of Governments."Read more: http://www.sdnn.com/sandiego/2009-10-06/news/local-county-news/study-san-diegans-taking-less-illegal-substances
