I'm sure there are LEO and politicians that are lurking in the shadows of this and other forums right now are laughing their ass's off at us because we CAN NOT get our shit together as a group.
Instead of coming together as one and telling Uncle Sam to go to hell and let us police our own states, we've let greed and anger influence our decisions. Where we could of passed a bill that could have been amended later on, and given other states the hope and precedent to pass similar bills, we basically shot our self in the foot.
I was thinking earlier before I logged back in that this is a completely different era from when I was growing up. I remember smoking joints in front of the Secret Service and the DC Police at the smoke-in in front of the White House in '76. Lafayette Park was wall to wall people, thousands upon thousands were there, the last few years have seen less than a hundred or so. It's like today's younger generation doesn't care. The spirit of the Hippies and Yippies from the '60's and '70's is gone. There is more concern about what what new cell phone to get or updating one's Facebook status then trying to make the future a better place and to regain the freedoms that Big Brother is taking from us slowly but surely.
To quote the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. " I HAD A DREAM ". And it seems for cannabis legalization that's all it is.
Yup. Agreed. The only thing is "we" are not one group. There is a group that is slinging (the "No" voters), and a group that is not.
