I used to live in Hollywood and am now stuck in Missouri – historically the biggest producer of cannabis.
Although I’ve always dreamed of living in New York City and do not wish to move backwards in my geographic location, I will move back to California in a NEW YORK MINUTE if this legislation passes…

The one question I have about it all is this:
IF Cali legalizes it, and I think they will, so what?
its still illegal on federal levels, still labeled as a narcotic, still a controlled substance.
The MMJ has been a real pain in the ass to defend, and recently Holder did say that they would stop jerking around people who complied with MMJ laws, but that has not been 100%, and speaks on nothing to do with full out legalization by a STATE.
So if it passes? so what? There are court battles over states right, but those have not been won yet, so does it actually do anything for legalization efforts when this passes?
Brings it to national attention, I know, and that can not be bad, but if it passes, does it REALLY make it legal there?

I just want to say thank you to all the non-Californians supporting Cali. I have lived here all my life and grown up around cannabis and have seen first hand how it helps heal. The legalization of pot will pull Cali. out of the hole and provide millions of jobs. The government needs to pull there head out of there a#s and wake up and smell the ganja. Its time its not the early 1900′s this is 2010 and we are still afraid of a little weed, but the general public has no problem spending countless dollars on government controlled perscriptions. I personally have had three friends die from oxy cotton overdose GOVERNMENT CONTROLLED HEROIN!!!!!!!!!!!! Im so sick of seeing people die from shit they get from the doctor. Alcohol is one of the worst drugs and yet its legal. You dont see anyone smoking a joint and beating there wife or there children, or going and robbing stores. No there usually drunk or high crack or some form of prescription drug. We need to just legalize weed and stop imprisoning people for having minimal amounts of pot.

What moves mountains? A show of strength moves mountains! Strenght is numbers. Every King in history has feared the people rising against them. Numbers, numbers, numbers. All show and no go won’t work. We’ve got to vote. Vote, vote, vote. California
must lead the way. Frankly…I like to make dust, not eat dust.

Prohibition is not a failure! For nearly a century the behind-the-scenes-powers that truly rule our government have made countless obscene fortunes by stripping the rights and property away from responsible cannabis users. Prohibition was never intended to protect the public. It was intended to finance the federal governments rise to power over the union of states that hired them and it has been a smashing success. I praise the states that have stood up and refused to let the fed continue its monopoly on the illicit drug market and I hope California, in true American spirit, takes this opportunity to spearhead the campaign to finally put the fed back in its place once and for all and show America what it truly means to live in a free country by the people and for the people.

the problem is that this whole law is about oaksterdam already having the cities approval to grow as much as they want and while the rest of us struggle with regulations were limited to 5×5 feeet and oaksetrdam with the blessing of the city gets to grow warehouses full and dominate what would be the new commercial growing industry, effectively forcing everybody out. im not voting for this, i support the cci with dennis peron.
