Congress quietly APPROVES Medical Marijuana!!!
"Tucked deep inside the 1,603-page federal spending measure is a provision that effectively ends the federal government's prohibition on medical marijuana and signals a major shift in drug policy.

The bill's passage over the weekend marks the first time Congress has approved nationally significant legislation backed by legalization advocates. It brings almost to a close two decades of tension between the states and Washington over medical use of marijuana."

Re: Congress quietly APPROVES Medical Marijuana!!!
So this will stop the feds from raiding medical marijuana growers and business. But in states where its still totally illegal it wont really do anything but give them the leeway to legalize medical weed, am I correct? Just trying to understand it, great find btw!

I really don't know yet.


I speculate that it's because they have seen how much money Colorado is making from legalization. That and the record drop in crime.

Looking forward to national decriminalization.

Looking forward to the total reformation of our legal system and not being the shame of history with our current dungeoneering for profit and sadistic judges.

We have been living under the jews in a economic and legal holocaust for many years. It's time to clean up the system

They have even amended their .Gov website to show that marijuana is approved for use against complications of cancer.

Re: Congress quietly APPROVES Medical Marijuana!!!
California made it "legal" first nearly twenty years ago. What California does in 2016 will determine the course for the rest of the country.

Washington and Colorado don't allow one to grow their own, privately, on their property.

California just might make it lawful, where anyone can grow plants at their home- just like Oregon has done.

I've lived in California's Emerald triangle for twenty five years and can say, regardless of what the feds do regarding a legal course, they will still find ways to trample rights, kill people, and steal. It's just what they do, people that wear uniforms have taken the mark of the beast and no longer have souls.

You can not understand the terror we've faced from unmarked choppers with side door gunners buzzing our homes at tree top level, chasing our livestock for fun, and pointing weapons at children. They have earned their spot swimming in the lake of fire....

Pretty sure Colorado lets one grow privately on their own property. After the recreational law you don't even need a license for a small number of plants

There can be no denying that the same government that is increasing disregarding constitutional provisions and protections

is also moving toward Marijuana Legalization.

It is not because the stoned will oppose anything else they are doing...
