I would love nothing more then to see Jack's initiative pass!
But, would you be willing to sit in a cell until then?Of course not.
A good 160,000 Californian will be arrested before the 2012 vote!
How many of these Californian's do you think have families?
Take them into effect, and nearly half a million Californians will be negatively effected from the status quo.
But hey, your garden is O.K. and you won't face the smallest change or compromise. Yeah!
Guess the general public can just drink the most dangerous drug on Earth for the next 2 years, or face unemployment!

what exactly will they be arrested for? possession of a pound? selling to an undercover? growing 16,000 watts on stolen power? ..... ???

Good point, not all of those arrests would have been avoided.
And those numbers will come down once Jan.1 comes.
Maybe I should adjust my figures, I apologize.

I took a look at the exit polls in california and the voter turnout rates. In the big picture it seems like prop 19 was a age vote, all the older people voted NO and primarily the younger people voted Yes and the old came out more than the young. So it seems that it waas the young stoners who stayed at home and did not vote. I am so glad that we were able to fullfill all the negative stereotypes of a stupid, lazy, paranoid and unaffected pot smokers. we really showed them.

thats exactly what i been saying...if the pot heads got their lazy asses off the couch or didnt forget to vote it would have passed by a land slide...!! Some of those yes votes were non stoners also!!

All of you guys who keep saying how it was all the growers, caregivers, and MMJ patients who didnt get this bill passed, please. Just stop and listen to yourselves. The prop lost by almost 600,000 votes. You guys obviously have not read the bill. I want nothing more than cannabis to be legal here, but this prop was not yet the best way to do that.

california took the lead and got prop 215 on the books in 1996 and paved the way for medical cannabis. since then a lot of other states followed. (your welcome out of state haters) Why would we compromise and limit some of the advantages of our well written prop 215 for a poorly written prop 19 for the sake of out of state? I would advise the out of state backers of prop 19 to get involved in your own state ballot initiatives and get the required signatures needed to get a similar prop for yourselves. dont just look to california to save your stoner asses. Or just move to Cali and get a card otherwise STFU bout cali biz.

Also, in California, voters approved citywide ordinances in
Albany (Measure Q), Berkeley (Measure S), La Puente (Prop. M), Oakland (Measure V),
Rancho Cordova (Measure O), Richmond, Sacramento (Measure C), San Jose (Measure U), Stockton (Measure I)
to impose new taxes on medical marijuana sales and/or production and businesses licenses.
California NORML, along with several other reform groups, specifically opposed the Rancho Cordova measure
as an excessive penalty on medical cannabis growers. Groups were divided in their support of many of the other local proposals.

i read this on the NORML website as well. so much for "dont let the government tax our weed, vote no on 19." looks like they got what they wanted.:clap:

I find it odd how I didn't hear anyone complaining about any of these ordinances, or campaigning against them.
I think this goes to show that the real complaint was big business' plans, and or, out of reach permit costs.
Don't tell me it's because people would have got in serious trouble for getting kids high.
Because, people should get in serious trouble for getting kids high!

pot heads get a little confused every now and then:mrgreen::mrgreen::eyesmoke:
Wait...what????;)

Ok, thought about it . . . put a nickle in my pocket and let it get warm against my leg . . . funny, I feel the same . . . nothing different . . . still HOPE I dont have to do ten years, I'm really sick and not sure I can do that kind of time. But boy is that nickle warm in my pocket . . . I guess I should cherish it as long as it last . . .
You prob smoke in front of your kid too. "See this son, this is bad for people that aren't us . . . we have it and they don't. Don't ever forget that, now grab that stack of twenties, we need to go to the bank then go vote. Understand? Good boy"."

I'm sure he learned a ton of shit today.
A bit dramatic????

because 19 was meant to spread around the country. Wasnt just about cali. cali's greed took over and ruined it for the nation. far as i know ppl will go the extent to make sure this isnt the outcome next time.
No it was not. If this was the case...Every state would now be adding $18 to each vehicle registered to help fund state parks...and Edmund G. "Jerry" Brown would be President...California, über Alles!

Statistically, 200 people will be arrested today in California for marijuana-related "crimes".
1/4 of those will be felony charges! Let's get this party started, woo-hoo!
Quoted from San Diego County Sheriff Bill Gore on KUSI last night..."Nobody goes to jail for using marijuana in California, they just don't"

And everybody can stop with the crap about giving MJ to kids...of course we as adults with children of our own do not do this!!!! But 18 year olds commonly hang out with 15-25 year olds...and this crappy charade of an initiative puts 18-21 year olds in jail for doing what 18-21 year olds have done for over 40 years. The people who hide their smoking from their kids, are the same ones who talk baby talk to their children as if they are idiots and then wonder why they can't freaking read at grade level...kids are not stupid...if you are hiding it, THEY KNOW. I guarantee it. Lying sends a very clear message to kids.

Why do people continue to believe that 19 would have legalized Cannabis? As if a yes vote on prop 8 would have legalized gay marriage...a play on words to confuse the sheeple?

i dont keep up with politics. why should i be happy it failed? is it only cause they would tax it?

They made more things ILLEGAL about pit than they made legal, basically it was an attempt to hand the whole industry over to some fucking suits. If you want to smoke pot in Cali get a card. Is that so fucking hard? Decriminalized status keeps the money flowing to the families and little croppers up north, and it keeps corporate america out of the pot bizz. I'm for legalizing, but that bill was a steaming pile of shit. The amount that was made legal was just made a trivial citation under current law by the Governator a couple weeks ago. What did we really gain from prop 19? What would we have lost? We need a better bill. Some of you tools just don't get it, if we give it over to big bizz now then that's it, we never get it back, EVER. Fuck that bill, it was robbery. The only people who really were 100% for it were dumb fucking retards that even in Cali can;t find a med card. Who can;t get a fucking med card in California for fuck's sake?
