Looks like Rhode Island may be next to hop on board and introduce a sensible policy regarding cannabis. It seems hopeful, as they already have a medical law in place. More here: Senate commission to study marijuana decriminalization | Rhode Island news | projo.com | The Providence Journal
why do people always jump on the first number they see? It is a tax aka the weed will cost the same, plus an extra $35
Great step forward. Hopefully no manipulation will take place and it will be a true independent study.
hopefully rhode island doesn't forget about this bill like massachussetts did with their legalization bills. good luck rhode island!
I didn't realize that this has potential. Next few months should be very interesting... Rhode Island Challenges Federal Ban By Authorizing Cultivation And Sale Of Marijuana | NORML Blog
And in 6 months/ 1 year, when RI tells the Feds that decrim has actually HELPED, what bullshit excuse will they use then? This is indeed very significant. If you live in RI, try not to fuck up lol.
Now that's the key right there, isn't it? Show the Feds (and more importantly other states) because cannabis was legalized, Coke, Herion, Meth arrests were up XX%. Drug dealers have been forced into hiding. Street crime down. Oh yeah...everybody's happy and having a good time
Hopefully Rhode Island can get some great results that will push the movement forward. I'm stoked for you guys.
Yea true, he's a pretty good fiscal conservative which I like, but his stance on weed pisses me off. He isn't gonna be in office much longer though.
