Absolutely, because I try to avoid hypocracy.

What hypocracy? Please tell me how this does not count? There are several rally every year, and many of us have been arrested, as I said, I got arrested once (in Edmonton). Marc is the only one who ever faces charges as far as I know. Here is video footage of Marc being arrested in Regina, and then talking about what happened to him.

Take a look at this excellent video guide for step by step instructions..

"Penn and Teller" vs. The War on Drugs

Here you go.

I disagree. Simply put, California needs to do two things: cut spending and raise revenue all without pissing everyone off. There are very few things that can accomplish this without causing major trouble (like closing schools or not feeding those in need). Two ways are to legalize marijuana and/or prostitution.

Legalizing marijuana makes sense. Imagine how many LEOs (law enforcement officers) we could reduce from local and state payrolls (about 10%) and the hundreds of millions of dollars in tax revenue generated each year. This is worth at least $500M per year. It would also open up valuable prison space so violant offenders get to stay in long. Yes, I know the Feds would freak but here's my idea.

Gov. Georgy line item vetos any funds going to marijuana enforcement and detection (i.e.: CAMP). Killing off DARE would be the icing on the cake but I digress.

Since law enforcement has now been neutered she gets a State Representative to sponsor a bill to legalize it and require tax stamps on all marijuana (and make the stamps available for purchase anonymously). Taxing "excess" like tobacco, alcohol, etc. is great sport for politicos because it gets them more money while looking good to the constituents. Part of the bill would require all California LEOs not to assist in any way the federales concerning federal marijuana laws.

The feds have two choices: send in the troops (unlikely) or ignore the "problem" and contain it to California (likely). Remember that there is nothing in the constitution banning marijuana like alcohol. The feds do not have a great "moral" leg to stand on.

Profit!!!

This is an oversimplification but my point is we can no long afford to enforce the illogical prohibition of marijuana. It seems that the only people that support a continuation of the current laws are LEO unions, drug testing companies and private "dry out camps".

The tax revenue from the sale of marijuana could go a long way in saving California.

As a side note, director Ron Mann and Woody Harrelson put together a great documentary called "Grass". Go rent it today or watch it for free over at pot-tv.net. It speaks the truth.
