Prop 19 is a trojan horse just like Prop 215.
I am a SoCal resident, registered voter, Vet and MMJ patient. I fallow the leader of leaders for the end of prohibition by Decriminalization and that man was/is Jack Herer who did not support Prop 19. He had seen it for what it is... taxation and nothing more.
You are wrong. It's called child endangerment re mj. DEA can kick in your door, shoot your dogs, terrorize otherwise law abiding citizens - hell they can even shoot you and then charge you for child endangerment if they find so much as a bong. Funny old world aint it?
it doesn't mention bbq, but it does say that you have to be in your house right? If I can't sit in my own backyard and smoke a joint then how legal is it?
Hey dude you are WRONG! Have you EVER lived in CA? We are discussing CA laws here, not your pals the FEDERAL DEA.
California parents hippies or no are NOT subject to having their children taken away over weed.
To say that currently CA has a problem with MJ smoking around kids is a lie. Remember 28 or so years ago "Fast Times at Ridgemont High"? Well Californian's attitude towards weed is pretty mellow AND there are NO LAWS against smoking weed in front of kids.
Prop 19 would change that for the worse and NOTHING you can say about the DEA or other pigs will make that statement untrue.

not a single NEW penalty if you just do the cross referencing..
just read H&S 272-1-a as referenced by 19 and you will understand the "child endangerment" provision in 19 is actually a LESSENING of current law!
this new penalty for possession/use in the presence of a minor is bullshit made up by a prohibitionist whore named "dragonfly".
and 19 does not mention bbq
I had CPS here about this very thing-- https://www.icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?t=86270
They told me that when they interview my daughter, that she told them I never smoke with her in the room, but I did not hide it either--
They told me, that if I had been smoking with her in the room...they would have had to investigate further, with it possible that we would have had to take Parenting classes, and be on Probation--
CPS does recognize 215...but no, you cannot smoke in the same room as your kids--
do you find it duplicitous that an 18 y/o can fuck a 17 y/o but a 50 y/o would be imprisoned for 15 years?What seems very interesting to me is if an 18 year old gave weed to his 18 year old buddy NO PROBLEM. But let that kid go to college get a little older then the 21 year old man can expect to be IMPRISONED for 6 months and fined $1,000 if he passes a joint to a 20 year old.
lets keep pot illegal so kids can smoke!!!!!
where is the "right bill"?
what does it say?
who is paying to get it on the ballot?
who is paying for the marketing?

I do personally have a problem with sliding unequal laws. If a 17y/o is thought to be old enough to consent then it should not matter if he or she chose to fuck an 18yr old or a 50yr old.
Now if Prop 19 has no penalties for a 19 year old handing a joint to an 18 year old, how does it make LEGAL sense that the day the older person turns 21 they are now a criminal for doing the exact same thing that they have been doing for two years?
Now for your 272-a-1 which Prop 19 is NOT intended to modify.
272. (a) (1) Every person who commits any act or omits the
performance of any duty, which act or omission causes or tends to
cause or encourage any person under the age of 18 years to come
within the provisions of Section 300, 601, or 602 of the Welfare and
Institutions Code or which act or omission contributes thereto, or
any person who, by any act or omission, or by threats, commands, or
persuasion, induces or endeavors to induce any person under the age
of 18 years or any ward or dependent child of the juvenile court to
fail or refuse to conform to a lawful order of the juvenile court, or
to do or to perform any act or to follow any course of conduct or to
so live as would cause or manifestly tend to cause that person to
become or to remain a person within the provisions of Section 300,
601, or 602 of the Welfare and Institutions Code, is guilty of a
misdemeanor and upon conviction thereof shall be punished by a fine
not exceeding two thousand five hundred dollars ($2,500), or by
imprisonment in the county jail for not more than one year, or by
both fine and imprisonment in a county jail, or may be released on
probation for a period not exceeding five years.
Prop 19:
(b) Every person 18 years of age or over who furnishes, administers, or gives, or offers to furnish, administer, or give, any marijuana to a minor 14 years of age or older shall be punished by imprisonment in the state prison for a period of three, four, or five years.
So it appears that the penalties go from county jail "Not more than one year" to state prison for a period of "Three, four, or five years." Help me understand how prison instead of jail and five years instead of one is lessoning penalties. It would appear that Prop 19 moves misdemeanor violation to the status of felonies and then locks up people for 3 - 5 years.
But going to town on Marlboro and pounding Budweiser in the same studio apartment as your kids is perfectly fine, correct?
I wish all CA parents who smoked cigarettes were subject to parenting classes and probation.
