Marijuana Goes to Ballot in Six States

Posted date:  November 6, 2012  |  No comment

The 2012 elections may well be called the tip of the civil war over use of Marijuana as at least in six states, marijuana advocates have placed measures in ballots over the recreational or medical use of marijuana. On the other hand, the federal government continues to raid places selling medical marijuana in states where the people have already made it legal.

On November 6, the ballots would test the waters in three states for allowing recreational use of marijuana, adding to the 17 states that already allow medical use of marijuana. The efforts of marijuana advocates in this election demonstrate a defiance towards to a belligerent federal government.

In places like California, where medical marijuana is legal, federal prosecutors sent notices last year to landlords of clinics selling marijuana warning that they will face prison if they do not evict the clinics. Even though California accepted medical marijuana after a 1996 ballot measure, federal raids continue in the state creating a virtual environment of fear and confusion.

On November 6, measures in Oregon, Washington, and Colorado are pushing the battlefront further by attempting to legalize recreational use of marijuana. In Montana, a 2011 law that restricted a 2004 initiative legalizing marijuana would be tested, and in Massachusetts and Arkansas, voters would be considering the use of medical marijuana.

According to a KCTS-9 Washington poll, the measure in Washington for recreational use of marijuana has 55 percent backing, and the best chance to win. However, there seems to be little chance anytime soon, that they would allow smoking pot inside the White House or Capitol Hill. There is also a good chance of the Massachusetts measure winning and legalizing the use of medical marijuana.

Attitudes over smoking marijuana have changed with time and research and luminaries publicly advocating the use of marijuana over culturally accepted and traditional stimulants like alcohol. how much does generic viagra cost 252. online Buy compounding flagyl cream.
