The feds allow Nevada to have casinos because those casinos remain in Nevada. The feds allow Nevada to have legalized brothels because they stay in Nevada. But legal marijuana: no way are they going to allow something that can be transported across state borders.

We have a foreign policy to discourage drug production throughout the world to the tune of billions of dollars a year in aid. Do you really think the feds are going to allow cultivation and sale within our own borders?

Just look what they did in California. California voters passed the Medical Marijuana law by an overwhelming majority. What did the feds do? Wrote every doctor in California and told them that if they wrote any prescriptions for marijuana they could loose their FEDERAL license to dispense drugs.

Arizona did not want Martin Luther King Day as a holiday. What did the feds do? Told Arizona that if they didnâ??t establish MLK Day they could kiss the Super Bowl goodbye.

New York State used to have an 18 year old drinking age. What did the feds do? They told NY to either change their law to 21 or they would forfeit all federal highway funds.

Texas used to have the highest speed limits in the US. What did the feds do? Told Texas to lower their speed limits or forfeit all federal highway funds.

Believe me I hope that I am wrong and come November you guys can raze the hell out of me for my doom and gloom predictions. But I have seen too much of this crap in the past to even dream of states rights so long as Washington, DC controls the purse strings.

predictions are nothing, blelieve it or not voters hold the key for whether or not pot is legal.

If ya can't vote there at least spread fliers on peoples car's in Nevada when you take a vacation there sometime before november 2006
