Did you know,before the introduction of marihuana into Britain in the 1980′s,crime was virtually unheard of.
@Sm0kinSweeTs I hear ya man, but we have to remember that cops only enforce the laws, politicians are the ones who make them.
I fucking hate cops
arizona has some of the harshest penalties for even simple posession, 2lbs or less can be a misdemenor or felony, this means you can have a FLAKE of it and be charged with a state felony. this state just sucks balls and i will never go there, i am not a pothead just an occasional user but clearly the voting public of this state is retarded for allowing this to go on
@IFlick
you are ignorant.
If you think Pot is bad you’ve obviously never done it or havent tried it enough times to understand its not bad.
@IFlick fuck off
They’ve done this knowing marijuana makes White women sleep with colored men. The flower of Arizona womanhood will be debauched! Marijuana smokers are race traders. Fox News is the only journalistic source bringing this news to the American people. Jesus watches Fox News. Blacks, Jews, Catholics and liberals are using marijuana to destroy Christian America. Watch Fox News and learn!
Its legalized!! Good these sick people need some kind of hope. If its smoking a blunt then let them do it!!
Legalize the safest most non toxic plant on earth!!!!!!
We look forward to supplying dispensaries, care givers, and patients with our services!
how is HEMP for a 4 letter word, fellow americans?
It Passed! 203 is active! YAY!
I will determine if I am eligible ,not you.
The GOVERNMENT makes more money with it being illegal. All the SHEEP that line up to plea bargain, thinking they are guilty, WHEN IN FACT THEY ARE NOT! Weed smokers mean no harm. I’ve seen in court number of times, MASS PROSECUTIONS in AZ where they line up multiple defendants at once, and put them through the Ringer. It’s messed up. F-AZ. They’ll get the point when EVERY MARIJUANA OFFENDER STOPS GOING TO COURT! FIGHT IT! ALL THE WAY!!!!!! YOU WILL WIN GUARANTEE. LIE IF YOU MUST. BUT FIGHT IT!
VOTE YES ON PROP 203
god cant wait i need my medical buds here in az
Its funny that they say a doctor can not give a class one narcotic, but kids are given “medical” speed to help them in class. All the pain killers that are given out are based on Poppy seeds and people die from those every day. Smack was invented by Bayer and no one seems to know that little fact.
watch..i Bet if we legalize medical marijuana..a bunch of states will sue us..just like 1070 haha.but naw forealz just legalize it all these uptight baby boomers are the only ones voting..
Wake up America, Read about the CSA, Nixon and how the DEA and FDA enforce their own laws.
Teach yourself about H.J Anslinger and W Hearst, JP Morgan and the rest of the non educated dipshits that paid the government to back up their allegations, racism and lies in newspapers! Read about DuPont using their political influences blackballing Hemp to market toxic waste rather then making bio plastics and safe fuel sources. the same people who silenced Nikola Tesla! Educate yourself!
just vote yes and will fugure out what happens once its aproved, Im just going to move to colorado or california. besides I think like 40 percent smokes now in az/ more will smoke once is approve. is my view,
@GemanSS1488
lol ya I honestly do not get what the big deal is. It’s 2010 not 1953. Marijuana is a safer substance then alcoholic or most prescription drugs, which are legal. Why is it so important to ban marijuana??? Maybe its the open mind thing…
