DOVER — Lawmakers on Thursday filed a bill that would make Delaware the ninth state to legalize marijuana.
The measure, sponsored by 13 Democrats and one Republican, would allow individuals at least 21 years old to use cannabis in their home. Using marijuana in public would still be illegal, and individuals would be restricted from growing the drug or possessing more than one ounce.
“Reefer madness. We should never have agreed to allow that image to be prolonged to that extent. That’s ridiculous,” Rep. John Kowalko, D-Newark, said at a news conference, accompanied by cannabis advocates.

That would not matter either way. It would be up to the parents or caretakers of children to ensure their children's safety. And from what I have been seeing in news stories about some parents, they kill and otherwise treat children terribly without pot being involved.
I took a local course and got an Arizona CCW permit (30 state incl. DE) in the mail.

If you want to really "legalize" it, let us grow it like our tomatoes and green beans and stay the he** out of our lives. ( hate spelling out heck in a public forum...)
ReplyDeleteYou have to ask WHY? There are lots of motivations related to enriching out elected officials but have they made a case why? I saw some phoney baloney about using weed to cure Heroin user habits. That is SO stupid. The addicts are hooked on Heroin, not weed. After all, if this argument worked, give the addicts whiskey.

DeleteHeroin is a drug. Heroine is a female hero. Get it straight.

you really need to educate yourself about the topic before you make such an uninformed statement. Please.
That was Maryland's idea to teat heroin addicts with marijuana, not Delaware. I think that Delaware should legalize marijuana.
ReplyDeleteThat Arizona CCW permit is not honored in:
ReplyDeleteCalifornia, Connecticut, District of Columbia, Hawaii, Illinois, Massachusetts, Maryland, Minnesota, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, Rhode Island, Washington.
9:29, that's why it's called a 30 state license, like I stated, and it DOES include Delaware, Dummy! The person complaining was going for a Delaware license.
