TOPEKA (AP) -- A Kansas legislator has introduced a bill that would legalize marijuana use with a doctor's prescription.
The bill from Rep. Gail Finney, a Wichita Democrat, would set up state-registered "compassionate care centers" where people with prescriptions could buy marijuana. The bill also would require that the centers use only Kansas-grown marijuana.
Supporters of medical marijuana says it helps ease pain from chronic diseases.
But some state lawmakers were unconvinced.
Rep. Scoot Schwab, a Republican from Olathe, says the bill is simply a way to legalize marijuana. He says he doesn't not believe the drug helps with pain management.
A legislative hearing for Finney's bill hasn't been scheduled.
I still hold a portion down there because I refuse to lose. Off to work to make some money for some more shares.
You know, I started last year in penny stocks and have overall lost at that little game and its because 99 percent of the companies are not regulated or legitimate. So I decided to step out of that game when this opportunity arrived. BRK.B is a stock that can replace a college fund, a retirement fund etc. with little worry about depreciation. If it were to fail, our economy would be in shambles as their fingers are in so many pots that I sometimes wonder if it doesn't prop itup.
I just bought 20 shares for my 1 year old son to put into a trust fund where he can access it in 20 years. You would be a fool to not buy this stock. BRK.B is such a diversified stock in and of itself. They will be back to where they were, just give it time. IMO, if the day traders throw it around too much, WB and his friends will step in, buy out the stock by making some people rich, while placing a small dent in their own assets, and re-stabilize his project. The value of the company has increased in my opinion as they continue to aquire and take stakes in name brand corporations.
I just bought 35 shares :) Wanted to support the cause here.
MONEYMADE: I think this is the term you meant.
? poppy·cock (päp'e käk')
noun
Informal foolish talk; nonsense
Im here and ready to make some money
When will we start to feel this WEEeeeee that you are feeling? I feel like im on a rollercoaster between 4s and 5s.
Marijuana advocates want changes in WA drug laws
Marijuana advocates packed a public hearing Wednesday calling for changes to Washington state's drug laws.
By RACHEL LA CORTE
Associated Press Writer
OLYMPIA, Wash. —
Marijuana advocates packed a public hearing Wednesday calling for changes to Washington state's drug laws.
Lawmakers are considering two bills. One would legalize marijuana for those 21 and older, and regulate it like alcohol. Another would decriminalize possession of small amounts of pot for adults.
Proponents argued that the current laws on marijuana are as ineffective as the Prohibition-era laws on alcohol.
"We have not deterred the use of marijuana, nor have we seen a noticeable impact on the availability of marijuana," Rep. Mary Lou Dickerson told the House Public Safety & Emergency Preparedness Committee. "Over the last decade, we have wasted scores of taxpayer dollars on investigation, court proceedings and incarceration."
Dickerson, a Seattle Democrat, is sponsoring the legalization bill.
Opponents said any loosening up of the laws would be harmful to children.
"If you believe that it is OK for kids in school to use marijuana and be high, then you should pass either one or both of these," said Don Pierce, executive director of the Washington Association of Sheriffs and Police Chiefs.
Under Dickerson's bill, marijuana would be sold in Washington state's 160 state-run liquor stores, and customers, 21 and older, would pay a tax of 15 percent per gram. The measure would dedicate most of the money raised for substance abuse prevention and treatment, which is facing potential cuts in the state budget as lawmakers seek to patch a $2.6 billion hole. Dickerson said the measure could eventually bring in as much to state coffers as alcohol does, more than $300 million a year.
"Marijuana prohibition is wrong, destructive and a waste of taxpayer dollars," said Mary McDermott, who drove to the hearing from Renton.
Not all marijuana advocates agreed, however, that the current bills were the best way to change state law.
Lee Newbury, executive director of the Washington state chapter of the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws, said he wants to see marijuana legalized in the state but has an issue with the proposal that it be sold in state liquor stores.
"I don't really want to associate alcohol and marijuana together," he said. "I think that's a poor choice of judgment."
The committee will take no action on the bills until next week.
Washington is one of four states where legalization bills have been introduced. California, Massachusetts and New Hampshire are also weighing measures. Marijuana is illegal under federal law, but guidelines on federal prosecution of medical marijuana have loosened under the Obama administration.
On Monday, activists in Washington state filed a ballot initiative that would legalize all adult marijuana possession, manufacturing and sales.
Ric Smith, with Sensible Washington, which filed the initiative, asked lawmakers to table their bills and let the voters decide.
"We're going to take it out of your hands," he said. "Just wait for our initiative. It will take care of everything."
If the initiative qualifies for the ballot, it will ask voters to remove all state criminal penalties for adults who possess, grow and distribute pot - no matter how much. Criminal penalties for juveniles who possess marijuana and for those who provide the drug to juveniles would remain in place. Driving under the influence of the drug also would still be illegal.
Supporters must gather more than 240,000 signatures by July 2 to qualify for the November ballot.
The decriminalization bill, sponsored by Rep. Dave Upthegrove, D-Des Moines, would reclassify adult possession of marijuana from a crime with jail time to a civil infraction with a $100 penalty.
Arnold Byron of Law Enforcement against Prohibition said the downside of decriminalizing instead of legalizing is that "a user will have to purchase marijuana from a person we designate as a criminal."
Fourteen states, including Washington, already have medical marijuana laws, and 13 have decriminalization laws on the books. About two dozen cities across the country, including Seattle, make marijuana offenses a low law-enforcement priority.
---
The marijuana legalization measure is House Bill 2401. The decriminalization bill is House Bill 1177.

Legalizing, taxing pot bills attract large crowd

OLYMPIA, Wash. - Two bills that would legalize the sale and possession of marijuana attracted a standing-room-only crowd to a Capitol hearing room Wednesday.
Most who testified, were in favor of the bills.
One bill would decriminalize possession of marijuana, the other would enable the state to sell and tax pot at state liquor stores.
Sponsors of the taxation bill said regulating the sale of marijuana could generate $150 million a year for the state.
Supporters also said decriminalization would save money in the state's justice and prison systems.
"In these days of billion dollar deficits, we can no longer keep our heads in the sand," said Representative Mary Lou Dickerson, D-Seattle.
State lawmakers are trying to balance a budget with a projected $2.6 billion deficit.
The Executive Director of the Washington Association of Sheriffs and Police Chiefs testified against the bills. Don Pierce does not believe the state would save or make any money by legalizing marijuana.
"It's just nonsense," said Pierce. "The biggest piece of science fiction I've read in the past 3 months is how much money we'd save if we decriminalize marijuana."
No matter what happens to this legislation, voters could ahve a say on the issue this year.
A group called Sensible Washington is seeking signatures to ask voters if marijuana should be legalized.
good luck. I think you will be alright as long as you do it in small strades instead of one large.
they wouldn't let me in on those the last 2 days, so i settled for 5s yesterday

Well honestly there already is CA and OR as they have open dispensaries. Just waiting for it to start spreading like a wildfire. I look for either WA or CO to be next.
Watching the news, Komo just did a report on legalization of marijuana. There is a lot of debate going on out here in the Seattle/Portland area. Last month it was about he dispensary that opened in Portland and its spread to the Seattle region. Sure would keep the money in the states if they legalized it. A lot of the money out here is going into canada.
