Wanting to regulate and crack down on Marijuana

money was invented for handing to women, but buying dances is a chump's game
Some of our local cities are wanting to really crack down. As CA law does still allow, some of the cities want to stop there from being any marijuana dispensaries in their cities.
People are presenting compelling testimonies of how lives are ruined by marijuana.
While I am not going to try and re-criminalize it, I still say that it is no good. So I do applaud efforts to regulate it, as CA law still allows.
As far as I am concerned it is simply Tobacco 2.0.

the stuff brings in the $$$$$$ for governments & municipalities to waste without accountability, so don't worry - the ganja ain't going away.
If it were up to me...just about everything would be legal and people would have to deal with the consequences of their actions. Get lung cancer from smoking...pay for your treatments or I guess you die from it. The government should only step in when one person's actions start to impede on the freedom of others.

What's your alter ego san_jose_gay's perspective on this issue?
He always made more sense than you and was much more fun to read. At least I never passed over his comments like I do most of your incessant ramblings.
There are also issues with the quality of weed, the way its grown, gmos, etc. Its crazy.
I have a funny story about a dispensary next to a fried chicken place, but won't post it here coz of possible misinterpretation and racism.

Decriminalization is complicated. It doesn't mean a free for all. With drugs it takes the user and makes them a victim in need of social and medical intervention. The dealer etc is still a criminal.
Criminalization means both the user and provider are criminals
Legalization allows a certain economic sector to bank off of it
But it seems now that the legal sales places are able to do deliveries anywhere in the state. And then there also is still a black market.

They could back off on the underground marijuana dealers and home plant growers. While still doing what they think best with the legal distributors.
A lot of this does have to do with commercial interests, and local governments act just like commercial interests.

Kids to me is anyone under 25.
I'm sure you did talk to the parents at the cookie booth, I always hated that, 5 potential buyers would walk by while you lectured the parents. Waste of their time, your time, and the kids time..... why can you not keep your opinions to yourself, not every person needs to know what an uneducated, inexperienced, asshole thinks about the way they live their life and raise their kids
But "their kids" cannot be taken literally.

And yes, our prision industrial complex is a very big problem.
I now do feel that it would be right to lighten up on the underground marijuana dealers. The reasons for cracking down on them are not good.

No shit, I'm impressed!

Give people something to live for and they'll be productive members of society

had to deal with broken window type policing here too. Some people think that way, especially the real estate industry.

Bogus Gold Rush, just to get more Anglo's here, to out vote Latinos and petition for statehood, just to open the door to real estate profiteering.

Well chosen words. And essentially the same as what Marx and Engels were saying in 1848.

They are saying that the French Revolution did not go far enough. It left the bourgeoisie in charge.
People have been trying to remedy that ever since, but mostly they haven't known how.
I think the time is now, and people know how, I know how.
