Will California Liberals be to stoned to vote Nov 2nd?

[jgoose71 0]

Never mind the talk about republican enthusiasm or the liberal get out the vote efforts. In California prop 19 is on the ballot. Do you think the people who would vote for this will be able to ignore the munchies long enough to make it to the poles?

Ahhh, the spelling Nazis are out in force tonight. No, I didn't spell check, yes, I threw the post up between teenage trick-or-treaters. Sue me. You get the main idea of the post.

The prop 19 thing came to me after listening to the stoner laughs of people who might be a little old to be going door to door.

The problem with guys like you is calling EVERYONE that does not goose step to your personal marching band a liberal.

There is just no room in your BIG WHITE CIRCUS TENT for moderates or independents.

Yeah.. you hear that kind of arguement on the Uptown Klan website all the time... go figure.

You can usually bet that if it gets posted on there .. one of the local "conservatives" here in SC will post it here within 24 hours....

the kind of argument that quotes obuma ? or is the chosen one above reproach and criticism ?

That was Meth. We are talking Marijuana. I think California, Oregon, and Washington state hold the most stoners. They do have medical marijuana. He is the break down:

Although, Alaska was the only state in recent history to have pot actually legal. 1972 to 1989.

I would certainly prefer my "neighbors" to be smoking pot ... than those who are meth heads.

I always love it when good conservatives like Lush Rimjob go off on people are smoking a bit of weed though.

Why bother? Peary and Amundsen already did it.

moderates are neither for nor against anything, eh?

e.g. one is either for or against the US Constitution. if not for it,, it does not exist. kind of sad, IMO.

[stayhigh 2]

I'm hoping it will pass but I don't think it will pass.
We still have bunch of scared soccer moms from Regan era.

and I don't think middle to high income white people will vote for it, because either they already have medical card or they simply don't get into trouble with cops, so they have no problem whether it be passed or not.

most of the people who will vote for prop 19 are blacks, latinos and lower incomed whites, and they are still minority in terms of voting numbers, they don't vote or not being eligible to.
and they should unite and vote for the cause, because more hispanics and blacks go to jail and ruin their lives for smoking pot.


and good luck getting yes vote from asian people. They come from the country where you go to jail for years just for smoking pot.

Why did Alaska recriminalize pot? it was a 16-2 vote. What failed?

Ah. Then how did it get decriminalized in the first place? Oh wait. . . it doesn't matter. It got decriminalized. The pot usage doubled in high school and younger, grades suffered. . . (it was her time period). . .everyone got (stupider?/Smarter?) and recriminalized it.

I'm not sure how the vote will go but I know people are very concerned about it up north of the border. BC largely escaped the recession due to the Olympics spending, but this has the capacity to shut their largest export down. It will be like the dirty thirties.

Ah. Then how did it get decriminalized in the first place?

A quick Google search will immediately reflect that in 1975 the Alaska Supreme Court (not the Legislature) nullified a large chunk of the then-existing Alaska statute criminalizing possession of marijuana, on the grounds that there had not been a sufficient showing that pot was a danger to public health. Anyhow, the court's ruling had the net effect of de-criminalizing possession of marijuana for personal use.

But Alaska generally is politically and socially conservative, albeit often with a libertarian bent. By the late 1980's, the landscape was more conservative than it had been in the mid-to-late 1970s. Also, by 1990, much of the pot on the market was more potent than it had been in the 60s & 70s.

So, in 1990, a coalition of conservatives who disliked liberal laws generally and hippie pot smokers in particular, and parents who feared their teenagers having easy access to pot, got a referendum on the ballot to re-criminalize pot. The people spoke at the polls, and the referendum passed.

Then in around 2005-06, the Republican governor put on a full-court press for new legislation to re-criminalize pot. Between the majority Republicans and the minority Democrats who worried about re-election if they were painted as wanting to corrupt our youth, the new law passed.

The new law was challenged in the state courts; and last reference I can find is that the Alaska Supreme Court hear oral arguments in 2008. If anyone has any newer information about the status of that litigation, that would be helpful.

So in other words, it's OK for you to name-call (liberal, munchies, stoner, etc) in your post, but not OK for someone to point out grammatical errors in yours? What is this, be-nice-to-conservatives week?
