I'm not talking nonsense. This next step, is going to set the tone for what cannabis is in California. And that tone is highly regulated and taxed. This is a freaking weed, one of the most benign substances on the planet, very unique in numerous ways.You're talking nonsense. It takes it from ILLEGAL, to LEGAL. This is in regards to RECREATIONAL USE. Medical use via 215 and 420 are unaffected. Your freedoms and civil liberties in regards to non-medical cannabis use right now are nonexistant. This is a huge jump forward.
We may not have existent liberties in regards to recreational cannabis use, but we are NOT stagnant. We have been moving forward for decades, with numerous victories in the last fifteens years and one very recently if you'll recall People v. Kelly.
We are in an active fight, and just because some prop comes up with minimal liberties attached, does not mean one does not support freedoms and liberties if one votes no. It means one is not satisfied with the liberties/freedoms offered, because they are insufficient. Fighting for liberty and freedom means just that, not quitting and settling for something sub par.
It's not going to go from 100% illegal to 100% legal in one fell swoop.
It should be, I wonder why it isn't...
