So what's up with all this talk of this proposition 19 in Californae trying to legalise and regulate weed
Then I read today that Arnie has signed a law decriminalising weed so you only get a fine and no court/arrest and all that. Not bad California, not bad.

So what do you guys think about this whole P19 thing then, GS I'm assuming you're vehemently against this sort of ungodly substance being allowed onto the streets of your family orientated neighbourhood and lifestyle
we need to enact state wide blue laws
Tu Stultus Es
I say let it pass. Then hope the feds update the controlled substance act...but I doubt that they will in the near future. They still think it's a schedule I drug for whatever reason...Mekstizzle wrote:

That whole situation requires a lot of reading from impartial sources, it'll take you many hours to get to grips with it.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partition_of_IrelandThe post-ceasefire talks led to the Anglo-Irish Treaty, which ended British rule in most of Ireland and established the Irish Free State. However, six northern counties would remain within the United Kingdom as Northern Ireland.
thats goofy
no
NYC to spend $27.5 Million to replace 250,000 street signs to replace the signs that are in all-capital letters to ones with both capital and lowercase letters.
Wouldn't it just be terrible if the street signs stayed in uppercase letters? I mean, what a crisis! GG New York!
Edit: I realize this is the city, and not the state, but this kind of garbage spending is endemic within the entire state.

This seems odd...a journalist raises money for the DNC at her home.
So much for being an objective journalist.

What's the problem with that?
It would certainly be a problem if she did it at work or used her position at the publishing company to advertise it in any way. Which she didn't.

It's still a free country, Harmor.Douglass told POLITICO that because of this connection, she regrets that it was not made clear that the fundraiser was entirely organized by her husband, John Phillips, who was on the Obama campaign’s national finance committee and is currently the chairman of the White House Fellows Commission.
“The DNC asked my husband if he would provide our house for a fundraiser and he said yes,” she said. “He has held fundraisers there in the past. This was his event. I was not involved in any way, though yes, I live here.”
Douglass emphasized that her current job is on Atlantic Media’s business side, separate from the management of its magazines.

I'm not saying that she's not allowed to campaign or fund raise for the DNC, I'm pointing out that as a journalist then she is not objective.

Yes I understand what he said...her husband did all the campaigning; still is improper for a Journalist.Morpheus wrote:

Maybe with this example you can see how I see it: Lets say you were a Nuclear Scientist at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory and you didn't disclose to your employer that your wife works for the Chinese consulate.

i see it as "you should divorce somebody because they don;t think EXACTLY THE SAME BULLSHIT as you".
i mean, ffs, people can be different.
EE (hats
also, you said "she can still" while the point was that she didn't.... yes, you're right she can, but don;t put words in her mouth.
EE (hats
Is it a non-issue because her husband stumps for the DNC? What if it was turned around and it was the RNC?
i still wouldn;t fucking care, m89
