Let me know when I can grow it in my garden and not worry about getting my door kicked in.

Lol.. I guess you could say I'm more of a realist and maybe a bit jaded.. but after going to Amsterdam and seeing how free we really aren't here in the us of a, yeah, it gets a bit depressing ..
Even in Germany, you know, the land of the Nazi, I saw less censorship on TV there.. saw titties on local TV during the day time.. I just watched a medical show about some man with a 200 pound scrotum and it was a cable channel, 10 at night, and they felt the need to blur out the mans testicles..
What's one have to do with the other you ask? Well, IMO, America prides itself on being the home of the brave and land of the free, and nothing could be further from the truth.. I for 1 am not going to get all excited by some politician throwing us a bone and call it victory..

And if you really think peoples opinions on cannabis have changed go to any online news source that has an article about marijuana in this country and read about 90% of the replies from people and you will see we've got miles to go still..


So...


Does this mean we can post scrotum on RIU now?

Does anyone with more time than me want to dig a few things up? I know they exist, but I have work to get done and can't spend all day searching for stuff.

1. When obama came out stating that marijuana was not his priority and that the feds were going to lay off, especially for legal states where everyone is following the law

2. All the raids and crack downs that happened after #1

I predict the same thing here.

On the subject of BIG business running the show, I seem to recall that the day they announced prohibition had ended, the Budweiser Clydesdales trotted up to the White House with a wagon full of beer. If it really WAS prohibition, how did they make beer that quickly? Same deal here, once the big business, hence BIG money, has properly positioned themselves, not only in the market but in politicians back pockets, this thing will explode like Mount St. Helens. Prohibition merely killed off the "true brewers" business, which left the market wide open for the BIG businesses.

The key here is that BIG business will never, ever stop the "true grower" from enjoying his little garden at home. Will BIG business capture the market and make zillions? Sure. But their clientele will be people who have no time/desire/knowledge to grow their own.

It's a simple thing to run down to the store and grab a 12 pack of imported beer, but the happiest beer drinkers are those homebrewers who want to consume their own creations. The same will hold true for cannabis in the future.

I know we all want that magic wand to be waived but I think this is progress. Like someone else stated there are some smart, hardworking people making this push. I hope one day we can look at this as a positive occurance. Remember change is always occuring, moment to moment. An old head I know is wary and pleased all at once. He said he wouldn't have imagined it happening in 1975. I hope the community can continue to push forward. It doesn't change my current perspective immediatly so I have to watch from afar and hope for the best.

Being a personal grower in Washington

I am both intrigued and worried

Every action the gov makes is an intended one

And I am curious to see their intended wishes for this outcome

Viva la PNW
