    actually, when I voted against it, it just said generally what the bill was about.

    NOT all the provisions, if I recall correctly. So, all the intricacies were not

    "voted on" by Ohioans.

    But that is the left -

    If you read the serious problems in Colorado, of course the Reps are doing the

    RESPONSIBLE thing by adjusting the IMPLEMENTATION of the law that was approved.

    You think anyone who is just a regular citizen that voted to approve the pot law read the entire document? come on.

    Cal, just my opinion here.

    The main reason it passed was the simple provision that people could grow their own, up to 6 plants. The new tweaks on this eliminate that. Why? 

    Me thinks it's so the state gets it's hand$ on ALL the dough. 

    Secondly, they want to up the taxed sales. That's not what the public voted on. 

    It isn't a good look. 

    The Browns go up 21-17 at the end of the 3rd Quarter, and tell the NFL "we won, no need to play the 4th Quarter." Change the rules in the middle of the game. Is that ok?

    Govt BS at its finest.

    “We didn’t want this, but the voters did, so let’s change it and piss people off”

  • Just my opinion, I don't want it legalized at all, so I'm biased, yes?

    You betcha, lol.

    But voting on a bill doesn't take into consideration the complications that the left wants to be kept quiet, and there isn't enough money to put it all in a bunch of tv ads.

    The implementation of the law requires complexity - it isn't a simple "yes" vote for pot.

    but voting to grow at home - this stuff isn't in the bill - but it is seriously relevant:

    • Potential health effects include hypersensitivity pneumonitis, allergic rhinitis, asthma and other respiratory diseases. Another concern was elevated carbon dioxide levels which, if generated using fossil fuel combustion, can result in the production of carbon monoxide resulting in significant health effects, or death, to exposed individuals.

    No problem with a "yes" or "no" vote at all, that's what we do.

    My point is the will of the people, educated or uneducated on the issue(s) voted, voted on the issue/proposed language. Our state "representatives" have no right to alter the will of the people, regardless of where we stand. 

  • If you don’t want pot grown in your house, don’t grow it

    Should we stop people from growing tomato’s indoors, or flowers? 

    I know a person, who lives in suburban Cleveland, and he has a very big grow room. He doesn’t grow pot, he grows flowers and vegetables that he then transplants into his yard over the spring and summer. He’s been doing this for decades

    Should he be stopped? Plants and vegetables are legal, just like pot is now

  • I'm 100% against the legalization, but if it is going to be legal then I absolutely think being able to grow your own few plants is how it should be.

  • I suppose, but comparing veggie seedlings with pot plants is pretty silly.....

  • I guess you can grow poppie, mushrooms and coca too.

    WSS 

  • We planted a whole field of sunflowers. why can't some of these people smoke sunflower seeds and flowers? (mixed in with buckwheat - they can smoke buckwheat, too).

    and there's no illegality about it.

    The old days, they smoked with corncob pipes.

    kids nowadays don't know how to solve problems.

  • I'm all for legalization , however. I do believe it should follow standards, Be safe, and be metered and distributed properly to those who need/benefit from it. I always thought alcohol was/is a much bigger danger and responsibility. Many of us have seen first hand. I'm not here to tell people how to live... You have to be responsible no matter what you chose to do.. To trust a fart or not.. therein lies the question!
