And some snippets from the proposed law.. since I doubt anyone has actually read it
I. The Adult Use of Marijuana Act creates a comprehensive regulatory structure in which every marijuana business is overseen by a specialized agency with relevant expertise. The Bureau of Marijuana Control, housed in the Department of Consumer Affairs, will oversee the whole system and ensure a smooth transition to the legal market, with licenses issued beginning in 2018. The Department of Consumer Affairs will also license and oversee marijuana retailers, distributors, and microbusinesses. The Department of Food and Agriculture will license and oversee marijuana cultivation, ensuring it is environmentally safe. The Department of Public Health will license and oversee manufacturing and testing, ensuring consumers receive a safe product. The State Board of Equalization will collect the special marijuana taxes, and the Controller will allocate the revenue to administer the new law and provide the funds to critical investments.
Yippeee...more money for the war on drugs so many talk about... except there is no war on marijuana... hasnt been for thirty years in California.. where stoners only got a ticket for less than one oz... that is if it just wasnt thrown away
Even the potheads that crafted this law knew an environmental disaster was occurring.. the its all organic bunk spread like fertilizer in this forum. Cost to cleanup a grow... about 50k... now we will get some of that back... that is IF this law passes
F. Currently, illegal marijuana growers steal or divert millions of gallons of water without any accountability. The Adult Use of Marijuana Act will create strict enviromnental regulations to ensure that the marijuana is grown efficiently and legally, to regulate the use of pesticides, to prevent wasting water, and to minimize water usage. The Adult Use of Marijuana Act will crack down on the illegal use of water and punish bad actors, while providing funds to restore lands that have been damaged by illegal marijuana grows. If a business does not demonstrate they are in full compliance with the applicable water usage and environmental laws, they will have their license revoked.

Did any Californians know for example we are going to front this proposal 5 million dollars... to get it off the ground in the hopes we will get repaid?
I can keep going.. there's 65 pages of restrictive codes including felony violations... hmm if it passes how soon will the first marijuana felon get made... Im betting.. day one
Blah blah blah... Why was an amendment to the constitution needed to even get involved in alcohol in the 1920's??? Because the federal government has no authority to even legislate on marijuana, heroin, cocaine. They are all 10th amendment issues.
You act as this is something new this has all been discussed, beaten to death, to the point of ad nauseam. Try to keep up.
Was there anything actually useful in your post or just a typical attack...
Have you read all 65 pages of 64...
Would you like me to educate you further.
You are aware the law is highly restrictive right?
Pot lovers think they will have a free for all..when in reality all that will occur if it passes is more of the same...who cares about you and your ounce of silly weed...
Now Leo will have huge tools to address pot growers... Hundreds of new employees and resources..

And this is good why?.. tell me again...
What attack?
Do you even listen to yourself in your head while you type out your long winded replies?
I'm all for regulation! I agree with everything you posted yet then went on to nitpick for God knows what reason. You now assert that regulation is going to be bad?! What side are you on?
There won't be hundreds of new cops to enforce the new laws, you will become what is basically a health inspector. People on cannabis eradication teams will be turned into cannabis compliance officers.
You continue to make yourself look out of touch with the reality you say you live in. When you have so many people saying that your reality isn't their reality, do you ever stop to think that maybe you are the odd ball out?
You say things need to be regulated, post excerpts of what's coming down the line, and scoff at them even though nothing has even happened yet, the laws you saw YOU HELPED TO WRITE, and go against the laws you helped draft? You make no sense.
See if the law gets passed, see how it plays out. You do know that it will take more than a day for it to play out, right?
We get it, we All get it, you are afraid of loosing your paycheck, but don't worry, you will be nothing more than a health inspector soon enough. With your gun replaced by a clipboard, and ticket book replaced by some form that will have to be filled out and cycled through 3 months of bureaucratic mumbo jumbo to make anything happen.

That, or maybe he could focus more on real crimes.
It will also retroactively free more than 10,000 non-violent offenders sitting in prisons, and makes it possible for the nearly 1/2 million possession/intent felons to reclassify their records down to misdemeanors.
False again...jeesh where do potheads get this stuff
Prop 47 released non violent drug offenders several years ago. It's proving to be very harmful to the communities as petty crimes thefts burgs have all ticked upwards...and the quality of life for normal working citizens goes down
Why?
Drug users commit crimes other than drug crimes
I'm on a grant... My salary isn't dependent upon mythical weed money...
Does anyone here think that there will be less Leo... Ha .. now there will be a funding stream for more... And when those civilian complaince officers have threats of violence or violence against them ...as is routine now ..guess who comes along... A policeman. We have ops plans prepared over two years ago to address this. Starting date about 135 k a year per officer total cost ...there's going to be a lot of new hires expected... And that will be ramped up too. So everything pot heads hate will be more...more .. more.. sure more drugs.. but right along with it much more regulation . California is the most highly regulated state in the US... And they have just started ...wait until local jurisdictions modify their granny twelve plant laws..to six.. continue to ban outdoor grows.. regulate their ass off.
That's what will happen
We are operating on the premise prop 64 will pass
More of the same..much more...
How many will cheat..so far 100 percent ...
Have you even read the law...any of you potproponents?
Wonderful neighbors...
More drugs in the world is never a good thing...ever.. but like everything else it will be dealt with.
Vote for the dope queen...or the unknown.. I think Trump will probably be working on more important things than pot..Hillary wants you stoned..obscures her criminality and makes you more docile and complaint
