Oregon's Dispensary Initiative Heading for the Ballot

[eccentric]

We could do it for 2012.
In the mean time, I am going to public policy meetings and making marijuana legalization part of the public conversation. Somebody has to, and I don't usually see anybody else from our team when I go unless I bring them.

Good to hear :thumbsup:. Most of the pot smokers I know seem indifferent about its legalization. They'd vote in a referendum, but they're not so enthusiastic. People are too satisfied with decriminalization here in Oregon I guess...

I'm motivated primarily by the idea that it is simply not the government's right to tell people what they can and can't ingest. All drugs should be legal; it's a matter of basic freedom. I want drugs I'd personally never touch with a 10" pole legalized. It's not my business to regulate someone else's consumption; ...what a crazy thought!

The legalization bandwagon is at least a step in the right direction; decriminalization does nothing. (politically)

Unfortunately I'm quite new to pot and will be leaving oregon anyways . For a red state, *shudder*.

Keep at it! :jointsmile:
