All marijuana tests and federal and state penalties are still lawful for employees, people on probation, jailed prisoners, etc.

Realistically, it’s only a matter months before some judge rules that those prohibitions are unconstitutional.

Re: Growing, Distribution, Retail, and Tax Regulations...

People over age 21 could grow, distribute, or possess marijuana, as authorized under various types of licenses.

A license to produce marijuana would make it legal under state law to grow marijuana. A license to process marijuana would make it legal under state law to process and package marijuana. It would also make it legal under state law to make products that contain marijuana. Licensed producers and processors could sell marijuana at wholesale...

Licensed retailers could sell marijuana, and products containing marijuana, to consumers at retail. Licensed retailers could also sell paraphernalia items used to store or use marijuana.

Sales of marijuana would be taxed. Marijuana excise taxes, in the amount of 25% of the selling price, would be collected on all sales of marijuana, at each level of production and distribution. Sale by a marijuana producer to a marijuana processor would be subject to a 25% tax. A sale by the processor to a retailer would be subject to an additional 25% tax. Sales of marijuana by a retailer would be subject to an additional 25% tax. State and local sales taxes would also apply to retail sales of marijuana.

I agree. The Dems have bought so many judges, it wouldn’t take much to find one who would prostitute himself / herself for the sake of the cause.

If over the age of consent, and IF consensual, then, yes, a victimless crime. Highly sick and repugnant in every way *I* could imagine. They are plenty of opportunities to point that type of behavior in the past (royalty and I believe some arranged-marriages these days). Still, one I’d denounce and condemn; prob. as much as difference as polygamy in Utah.

Now, what does that have to do w/ the price of tea in China...or this case, Freedom from Fedzilla to tell you how to live your life??

So you’d be OK with a stoner driving your kids to school? How confident would be if the surgeon operating on you was baked out of his mind the night before? Before long the question will be why outlaw cocaine? After all it’s a drug just like marijuana.

Yes, I’d sooner have a stoner surgeon than a drunkard surgeon.

Since you’re asking ‘anabolic steroids’ should be the next moved to schedule III.
