Barney is in love with MaryJane!

A monumental... moment happened today... this day in "time". Anyways capital hill will hear a bill proposed by Rep. Barney Frank to decriminalize possession of less than 100 grams of marijuana and non profiteered distribution of the drug. Many states in our great nation have approved medical use of the drug and if you go to Cali its pretty much legal. This new bill will make sure that their is no enforcement on the federal level . Frank and others condemn the abuse not the use of Maryjane. The government regulations on the substance will be made similar to that of the regulations controlling alcohol.

Legislators are hoping that letting up on weed laws will save the government time and money - in addition to focus more time on the war on terror not terrorizing stoned paranoid pot heads. The view from Barney is that the government does not penalize controlled drinkers so why penalize non-raging pot heads? You would not be able to hot box your car - sorry high schoolers but you would be permitted to have it and smoke it. The arrests for weed more than double all violent crime arrests put together. By decriminalizing law enforcers could focus on more serious crimes like child rape, tasering to death, and old fashion knife fights.

In my personal opinion I feel that making pot legal would not change much. I don't feel more kids or adults would be toking up - in fact maybe even less. Getting high would be so "conventional". Maybe thats the tactic. Those rebellious teens alway wanna push against the man - its a reverse tactic to have less pot smoking? Either way aside from the pure joy of feeling like Bob Marley did in all those songs and pictures and making suburban white kids stop having dreads the law hopefully will have a real impact on the country. Less crowded jails, more focused law enforcement, and more docile people. I feel that this law will not pass thou, even thou it gives the states the option to make possession on a state level an offense - its just not time. It will still be illegal to sell weed for profit, so just give it to me.
