  1. Yep, you read that right.


    ALT LAKE CITY (AP) — The Mormon church joined lawmakers, the governor and advocates to back a deal Thursday that would legalize medical marijuana in conservative Utah after months of fierce debate.

    The compromise comes as people prepare to vote in November on an insurgent medical marijuana ballot initiative that held its ground despite opposition from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

    Gov. Gary Herbert said he'll call lawmakers into a special session after the midterm election to pass the compromise into law regardless of how the initiative fares. If it passes, it will be revised under the terms of the deal. It if fails, the Legislature would consider a law under the new framework.

    The agreement in such a conservative state underscores the nation's changing attitude toward marijuana. Medical use now is legal in more than 30 states and also is on the November ballot in Missouri. So-called recreational marijuana goes before voters in Michigan and North Dakota. If passed, it will be a first for a Midwestern state.

  4. You heard it here first!

    The Mo “church/Cult” will back track from their promise. They are well know to talk out of both sides of their mouths.

    When they bring in the “kids” it’s an last ditch attempt to pull at all the mo parents heartstrings.

    News flash for the MO Church/Cult- MJ is perhaps one of the most studied plants (outside of the US) out there and it’s non lethal and very medicinally beneficial. Canada as well as other Countries and states have leagalized it and they have not collapsed.Get past the reefer madness.

    They realized Prop 2 had a better than average chance at passing so this is their attempt at controlling it.

    I hope I’m wrong about them, but their history has me doubting their sincerity.
