		<description>this is trully a historic day! hopefully now the pot smokers can finaly toke in peace. those in power are now realising that marijuan is an ecinomic jackpot (no pun intended) instead of the burden which it was once believed to be. and infact was forced to be a burden by the politicions which supported its criminalisation for there own monitary gains. this is a happy day but my question is will those people who are in prison for mariluana related crimes going to be released? and if marijuan is going to be regulated by the government is the quality of our chronic going to be comprimised?? im a patient so im not to worried about that since i can grow my own chronic but what about the average stoner? once his or her regular connection is put out of buisness will they be forced to smoke same kind of prerolled shwag that the government gave to the original cannabis patients?   questions to ponder on. i trully hope this ends up being a good thing for the stoners and not just the government.

		<description>Hell yea california thats why im glad im from there! and hell yea ganjlover, Fuck you American with a brain obviously your against this because you probably have never done it so you dont really know what the hell your talking about in the first place. I find it funny how contradicting you are. You talk about how its a mind altering substance and that people will go kill each other when on it, which is completely ignorant of you to say because first, who is going to hurt or kill someone when high according to u it makes u lazy. I got a task for you &quot;american with a brain&quot; watch a documentary for me called The Union and find out what the statistic is for deaths per year affiliated with smoking weed and you might be surprised what the top 5 hell top 10 killers are in our world. The documentary also shows how your perceptions about the &quot;so called&quot; drug are completely wrong and proves it with actual facts and studies. Its a fucking weed...an herb! Studies have shown that weed can actually stimulate brain cells and aid people in so many ways i cant name them all and this is all with NO GOVERNMENT ADDITIVES!! How can you reject that especially when you really know nothing about it, that is just being close minded and ignorant. 
LEGALIZE THE HERB!!!!</description>

		<description>This is all fine and dandy, just one problem I see though.  How many of us have smoked while we drank...not a good combo.  We won&#039;t have a way to test drivers who might be under the influence.  Mixed with other substances, I don&#039;t know, sounds kinda scary to me.</description>

		<description>I hope so much this happens but even if it does fail and its close enough then that will still show that this is a legitamate arguement and more people will be looking into it.  If more and more people learn the truths about weed then we&#039;ll get more people on our side, remember they had to lie there ass off to get weed illegal alls we have to do is spread the truth.  And as for the 50 dollar tax i think that the people growing the best will be selling so much there mark up per ounce will go down quite a bit im sure it&#039;ll be cheaper than it is now.


               LEGALIZE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!</description>
