Republican Guv hopeful McInnis wants to put brakes on medical marijuana

[hizeman]

In Colorado Springs, where the number of marijuana businesses went from a handful in early 2009 to more than 100 now, a group is pushing a petition drive to get a ban on the ballot.

â??The reason it all started is because of Obama,â?� McInnis said of the rising number of marijuana businesses.

The important thing to note IMO is that it's Obama that is most responsible for the growth of MMJ in Colorado by telling the feds/DEA to leave the states alone. McInnis even said so.

But it's 50/50 if Obama will be reelected. If I were one of you dispensary owners, this would be a major issue for me. In 2 years, everything could go back to the way it was with the DEA busting everyone they can, and any state law won't matter.

I wonder if the DEA would stoop to building cases now, then wait to prosecute in the hopes of a change of presidents?
