As the article says, vote was basically along party lines so this time it wont make it. Maybe in a few years. I really hope they keep the name

Marijuana Opportunity Reinvestment and Expungement Act, or MORE

Always remember that one day all this drug monkey business will be legal. They won't leave to people like me. Not when they finally figure out how much money there is to be made. Not millions, fucking billions.

Though half probably hit the bong on a regular basis :cool
Pot industry just needs to have the best hookers deliver pot and lots of cash to the Senators in their best bdsm outfits to get them on their side.

Maybe the war on drugs should have tried waging a war on drugs instead of waging a war on Black people.
