Yes,but whether it will hold up to legal challenges after it pases is another thing.

No,but whatever ballot measures in California that pass,that are slightly controversial. Always end up in court. Gay marriage for instance.

The big question is even if California passes the bill and recreational weed becomes legal, there are still federal narcotics laws that could preempt the state laws -- just as DOJ argued iin Arizona re: immigration.

This Administration has indicayed that it will not enforce federal narcotics laws in states that have passed medical marijuana initiatives (altho in reality, the feds are still cracking down on things, as are state authorities). But if another Administration changed its policy, California's law might get booted as preempted too.

Given the proliferation of medical marijuana laws, and now California's movement, seems pretty likely to me that this country will loosen up on weed and recognize that, like Prohibition, when the scant rescources are not winning the war, taxation of the trade makes more sense to everyone.

And if everyone just smoking more weed is good for your health

smoking more weed is good for your health

amd chilled out some, things would be a lot better!
