Legalize in 2011! YES on I-1135!
well time I do respect your input here my dear but, As I pointed out above.. please don't think I am being negative...

I after getting educated a bit.. i.e. ignorance of the law is no excuse.. I began seeing the real light beyond the haze..

Here is an example of what I mean by haze..

In wa. state we have a board of pharmacy with specific rules for scheduling drugs.. right? right.

So steve sarich and a few others file a petition to reschedule cannabis..in 2009 a hearing happens and the Assistant Attorney General puts on the record in an administrative hearing that cannabis is not a drug but AN HERB not regulated by the BOP, because it is not of the type of substance sold in a pharmacy.. o.k...

So if cannabis is an HERB not regulated by the BOP... whom is it regulated by then ?? which agency ??

The legislature is not an agency but, a body of 3 total.... our legislature Put the BOP in charge of scheduling all regulated DRUGS... This is in the controlled substance act...

In otherwords, why is their legislation being put forth again ?? If the AG office claims it's an HERB... and they enforce the UCSA... what are they enforcing again ? a substance they themselves acknowledge is an HERB, not a regulated controlled substance any state agency has authority over.. i.e. what is their jurisdiction to file complaints against any citizen for ??

see the haze ?? regardless of the words in the UCSA, the chief executive law enforcement office of the state in which our constitution allows them to charge for public offenses.. they themselves have admitted in an administrative hearing without any appeal as to the decision.. IT IS AN HERB...

Please have someone you know or yourself, find any statute in which shows the state legislature has deemed an herb for any executive branch authority over to bring forth any criminal process in a court of law...

So is this legislation to legalize an HERB or a SCHEDULE 1 CONTROLLED SUBSTANCE?? See it yet ??
