New Jersey lawmakers pass medical marijuana law
Posted on 02 January 2012 by smokeandtoke6123
New Jersey will probably grow to be the 14th state to decriminalize marijuana for medicinal use following votes in the state Assembly and Senate. The Assembly voted 48-14 to pass the “Compassionate Use Medical Marijuana” bill and numerous hrs later, the state Senate voted 25-13 to approve the bill. Gov. Jon Corzine has stated he will sign the bill and is expected to do so before leaving office on Jan. 19. The votes have been a major victory for medical marijuana advocates, who crowded voting chambers in help of the bill. If Corzine indicators the bill, the law is expected to take effect in about six months, that means the state could see it’s 1st medical marijuana dispensaries open this year.

@mikeyoliveri haha I’m looking at this comment again and I can see how much my grammar has improved in one year. But the comment does get the point across. If you leave it up to black markets to sell the drug, their going to sell it to anyone because they are already breaking the law. If our brain dead politicians could put 2 and 2 together, they would have it legalized for adults. Ron Paul 2012!!!
@zaczattack thank you dude!!!
@Kelspeed1972 You make a logical point so let me rephrase my statement. It is impossible to die from an overdose of THC. Better?

@HelpTheHemp no one’s ever been strangled (be it on accident or on purpose) from a piece of hemp rope?
@Simplysick408 On average 460,000 people per year die directly from tobacco products.
@NY811 Nope. Gov. Christie fucked everything up.
@1n3utron7 Gov. Christie fucked everything up! Rutgers University was originally suppose to cultivate the marijuana for dispensaries under the bill Corzine signed right before he left office. FUCK CHRISTIE!
@Kelspeed1972 No one has ever died from marijuana
Noooooooooo! Marijuana is from Satan. Look at all of the people who die from it and the liver damage it causes!

@Brainstormhaze truly lets keep wasting more money on a failing war, or effort. fuck, lets legalize, save our economy, and save our youth from unnessecary jail time.
DOES ANYONE KNOW IF IT IS PASSED THERE? CAN I GET MEDICAL MARIJUANA THERE TOMOROW FOR EXAMPLE IF I GET PHYSICIANS NOTE. NEW JERSEY REPLYS ONLY THX
The more old people die, the more marijuana becomes legal.
The only bad thing about pot and hash is the paper use a pipie.
People are worried about it being more available to kids !? Would they rather these patients be on Oxy’s (read pharmaceutical heroine) and that be more available to kids?
Mantua Township is a joke
Just give up people. Maybe if everyone shuts up about it. They’ll Legalize it! lol
anyone who thinks pot should remain criminalized should be executed. actually they should be tortured to death.
lol its so much easier to get herb compared to getting someone to buy you booze.
All drugs will be legalized in the future, because in long term it’s the only reasonable solution. Everything else will only lead to more chaos.
Apart from the fact that no state, no government, nor any other formation of human interest should have the power to allow or disallow any other being what to put in your body.
I’m just afraid humanity will have eliminated itself long before it reached the mental state of mind to realize this.
Thank the lord! very happy with NJ decision! Now lets get everyone else to follow the good example NJ and the 13 other states have set and legalize Medicinal Marijuana! I’m tired of having to hide the fact i need to smoke to gain an appetite and feel better. The conflicts and hassle of getting herb is just annoying!
when is this gonna happen in florida? if they do that here, i hope it ends the making and sell of meth.
cigarettes kill thousands of people a year …that fat bitch with all thjose joints hanging around his neck is not really proving a point..i can go to the store and buy 700 cigarettes for 30 bucks ….cigarettes kill marijuana doesnt!!!!
@shadowpirate100
Who cares? Legalize it, decriminalize it as quietly as you want. As a medicine and for recreational use.
