If only Nixon had listened when the largest government financed study suggested it be decriminalized because it basically harmless. He didn't and most of you probably didn't know about the study. The gov't has ways of getting the sheep to follow blindly. Later sheeple.

Its pretty well known in Boone Co you plant one field for the cops to find and one field for personal use, The police get the federal funded overtime and the pot growers make money its a win win for both sides of the law. Isnt this is what america is all about?

It is time to legalize marijuana in the US. HR2943, The Personal Use of Marijuana by Responsible Adults Act of 2009, introduced by Democrat Barney Frank and Republican Ron Paul, allows for responsible adults to possess and use up to 3.5 ounces of marijuana and transfer, not-for-profit up to 1 ounce. Call Shelley Moore Capito (if you live in WV) at (304) 926-8912 and tell her to vote yes on HR2943, if you don't live in Shelley's district, look up your own congressperson and call them...if the people tell their reps to legalize it, you will see it happen. Legal marijuana leaves the police to focus on more important things like real crime, and takes away any violence associated with it. Marijuana is clinically proven safer than any drug including alcohol and tobacco, even aspirin when the marijuana is eaten or vaporized instead of smoked, only smoking marijuana has any ill effect. The carcinogens are ONLY in the smoke, eat it and you are taking the safest thing you possibly could.
