Marijuana legal in CO, WA - wow - Page 2 - The Orange Mane

Rohirrim · 11-07-2012, 05:05 PM

I had an odd experience last night. I'm watching Governor Hickenlooper kind of joking about pot, with the Cheetohs comment. And I'm laughing along with him. And that's a common reaction all over the country; People in government, at many levels, laughing about pot. Meanwhile, how many Americans are sitting in a jail cell over this ****? We're asking our police to enforce this law while, as a society, we're pretty much just laughing about it. Time to end the stupidity.

The law isn't in effect until a month after the final ballot is validated as I understand it. This could take several months.

But when in effect yes, any person 21 years old with a valid ID should be able to buy up to an ounce from a dispensary.

Wonder how this will effect the military if it ever becomes federally legal? I'm guessing it will never be legal to use for military members. If I could toke up on the weekends I'd never get out lol.

So if you test positive for pot by your employer he can't do anything about it?

baja · 11-07-2012, 06:24 PM

How about the Broncos, if a player tests positive in CO there is no impunity?

The league would have to change its policy if the behavior was no longer illegal.

No.

Employers can fire you just like if you came to work drunk. It's still federal law regardless, so you would never win an appeal for wrongful termination.

No they wouldn't. There are already substances you and i can use they can't.

NFL is a private organization. If they want to say weed still banned they most certainly can. The govt won't force them or other companies to accept weed smokers.

That's still to be determined. It would still be a controlled substance.

Does this mean farmers in Colorado can now grow hemp?

Cause if it does I'm buying a farm in South Western Colorado.

Let's say the feds suspect somebody of something else. More serious drugs, smuggling, weapons violations ... whatever.

They can still arrest on marijuana charges & conduct searches incident to that arrest.

Which means that anyone they suspect of anything better not be toking.

The State will always be The State. Selective enforcement will always exist.

Actually yes, part of the new laws actually encourage hemp farming and manufacturing.

I expect many places to take advantage of the low cost of hemp rope, clothing, paper, etc.

Buying a hemp farm right now may be smarter than buying a MJ coffee shop.
