MARIJWHATNOW? The Seattle police guide to legal marijuana use | |
| Anonymous Coward User ID: 28057275  United States11/19/2012 03:26 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The people have spoken. Voters have passed Initiative 502 and beginning December 6th, it is not a violation of state law for adults over 21 years old to possess up to an ounce of marijuana (or 16 ounces of solid marijuana-infused product, like cookies, or 72 ounces of infused liquid, like oil) for personal use. The initiative establishes a one-year period for the state to develop rules and a licensing system for the marijuana production and sale. Marijuana has existed in a grey area in Seattle for some time now. Despite a longstanding national prohibition on marijuana, minor marijuana possession has been the lowest enforcement priority for the Seattle Police Department since Seattle voters passed Initiative 75 in 2003. Officers don’t like grey areas in the law. I-502 now gives them more clarity. Marijuana legalization creates some challenges for the Seattle Police Department, but SPD is already working to respond to these issues head on..... [link to spdblotter.seattle.gov]  |

| Anonymous Coward (OP) User ID: 28057275 United States11/19/2012 03:49 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I-502 makes one ounce of marijuana legal on Dec. 6, but the King County Prosecutor decided to apply I-502 retroactively and 220 legal cases were dismissed immediately.

Get a marijuana license and instantly break Federal laws. The licensing is a trap. You don't need to ask permission to do a damn thing if it not hurting someone else or their property or possessions. |
| Horus User ID: 19949961  Iceland11/19/2012 05:14 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | so people have been persecuted for this marijwhatnow, millions imprisoned, children taken from parents who have used it, people have died from the unexcusably inaccurate, yet heavily enforced government propaganda. and now it's marijwhatnow... and no, you can't have your illegally seized pot back... how far up the ass can we take it? seriously? no one had any right, ever. to treat other humans like we have over their choice of drugs. if this was being taken as seriously as it deserves, heads would be flying, people of power positions would be being fired. the social damage this ignorance has caused, dwarfs the holocaust; yes even both WWs along with vietnam combined completely. it's not going to be this easy. sorry, but since it was a war, then a war crimes hearing is needed for all the horrors committed in the completely illegal "war on drugs". come answer for your silent murders... |
