If the repubs could have had a better candidate than turd burglar Richardson they could have beaten kitzy. Golden opportunity wasted
Also... looks like Coos County went for Merkley 49-43. Better take a close look at your neighbors. barfo
Soon the federal government will get in on this action. They should at least lift the schedule 1 label on a natural substance. I mean cocaine and heroine are schedule 2 for God's sakes!
Said the same thing to my dad after Portland won. DC and Alaska also voted to legalize. Yet, in Florida, they won't even legalize medical marijuana.
Did any of you proponent of this law read it? This is so bad I can believe anyone voted for it. The state taxes cigarettes to discourage usage. The only item that ever passed to have a sales tax on it and it was sold to offset property taxes. Well that never happened and now it is a control the use tax. Here we go again, a sales tax on some shit for the public Good! It looks like it was dreamed up by the teachers union. 40% of the revenue to the schools with even an estimate of how many teachers can be hired in some places. Fucking wonderful! You use to be able to tell a dealer by the amount he had on him, but now the dude can pack enough to fuckup a dozen kids and still be legal. Another dozen five minutes later with a reload. He can build up his business too, just give the shit away legally for awhile until they want more. It is illegal for a minor to have the shit and illegal to sell it to them, no fucking restriction or penalty stated for giving it to them. Oh well, we can hire more teachers to teach the fuckup little tikes. How many of you fucker have 10 year old and give a shit? Ah! I suppose you voted for it because you wanted to get fuckup on the shit when ever you like. Well you got it fool. Watch your ass, don't cross any lines, they can confiscate any property you have in the vicinity, sell it and distribute the funds before you are convicted of the offense. Yes Sir, real smart to vote for shit like this.
Oh! I forgot to mention, it is illegal to posses any gear associated with the production of MJ products. They list a whole bunch of item, several I have but I don't and never did have anything to do with the shit The small balance scale is an interesting example, use to weigh grains and grams. I use my for measuring power when reloading ammo, but I have seen the same use for MJ. Scales are specifically on the list. WTF?
Marazul, I don't know if you are aware of how easy it is to get marijuana if you live near the city. That supposed dealer has been able to do all of that for years. As far as giving it to kids goes, that is false. It's just as illegal to gift marijuana to minors as it is to sell it. You can "gift" under an 5 grams TO AN ADULT without facing charges. If you poses any amount of marijuana within 1000 feet of a school you will be arrested. Even since I was in high school, it was easier to get pot than it was to get booze unless you or a friend stole it from their parents. The way the medical marijuana was set up, anyone with a sore toe could get a card and be able to hold high amounts of the plant legally. The biggest change is that these businesses specializing in working around the laws to give medical cards to anybody will lose a lot of money, that money will go to the state, if the state chooses to fuck up what they do with said money then that is a different story all together.
You are misreading the law. It prohibits selling those items for the purpose of illegal marijuana use. It doesn't say you can't own them, and it doesn't say you can't use them for your legal marijuana activities. barfo
Yeah, hiring teachers is fucking wonderful! Glad you agree. Those penalties already exist in current law. They can do that now, that's not a change. barfo
People will have less incentive to buy weed on the street from strangers when they can pay a little extra (I know prices will start high, but they'll drop) to know they're getting top-quality, good stuff. No worrying about what some sketchy dude did to the week they're buying on the street. BTW, I was in Bandon this summer for a week. Doesn't seem like there's a shortage of youth peddling it down there (was offered numerous times), so I think it's safe to say, MarAzul, you'll see little change down there. So, if you feel safe now, I figure you'll be at least as safe in the future.
Also cities can vote to be not part of legalized marijuana. I think I'll grab the domain name NoPotInBandon.com and sell it to Marazul.
Drug paraphernalia includes, but is not limited to: possess with intent Scales and balances marketed for use or designed for use in weighing or measuring controlled substances; Seem straight forward to me. (see the copy and paste above) Seems like they can easily conjecture what my intent is in having this item. It can be seized and sold long before I am found not guilty. That and what ever else they find that might produce a quick sale. Have to keep paying those teachers you know.
