Good news for the movement. This is a snowball now. Each time a big chunk of the nation votes for it, others maybe don't feel awkward supporting it knowing millions of others do. That last Gallup Poll was a big ass jump, so that's where I get my little theory.

Despite the cops drug-fighting budget going down, you can't stop the popular vote

Wish this woulda happened a year or 2 ago. Got caught with a q in MI and got jailed over it. When ive had more than 5 times that where i stay and got nothing more than a ticket. Multiple times. Just a $350 ticket and im out. Glad its changing though!

This is great, BUT doesn't state and federal laws still trump city laws?. So a State cop busts you and your not a cardholder sounds to me like your fucked.:cry: State cops will be everywhere in these cities just watch and more good citizens will be screwed.

It's only a statement, not an enforceable law. It's sending a message. If you don't have a card, they will lock you up and receive their bounty for your capture. They may take a picture with you on the roof of their car. You'll be tagged and weighed, of course. That's about all you are to many of them. You're part of a human quota.

The message will fall on deaf ears. If it doesn't change federal law it doesn't mean shit IMO. The Big Machine trumps all. Just a False sense of security for MJ users.

Some local LEO may obstinately defer to Fed law, but the Fed has already made their position clear. So (IMHO) I think the state level laws will be what are looked at. again, IMHO. It would help getting people like Schuette voted out

I don't believe anything the Feds say, they are just waiting in the wings, to much money at stake for them to wash there hands of this. You are right on about voting them all out though.

While we humans offer a value to them as meat in their prison meat locker, we are of more value on the outside working and buying stuff. Buying Insurance, buying mortgages, buying their products. If I'm in big business, I don't want my customers in jail. Unless jailin' is my business...

this is why credit scores are taken into consideration during investigations.

All cops should be given bongs, then we'd all have em and get along as a bong tribe, that common thread, under one nation.

when i got in trouble my lawyer told me my nice credit score was a +

just recently one of these michigan cases mentioned someones credit score. it was either the Medical marijuana team case or the 3 million dollar one by port huron.

Lansing, Ferndale, and Jackson all passed decriminalization. Unfortunately, citizen's wishes rarely matter in terms of law, but it is another small step forward.
