I don't know whats worse, the fact that the state of california is even considering making this legal, or the absolute stupidity of the comments from people on the website.... Either way liberals have officially hijacked this country as far as I'm concerned.
I definitely lean right, but have no problem with legalizing it. Alcohol is far worse, and frankly there are so many normal functioning adults that smoke it anyway it is just senseless to criminalize it. Complete waste of our money, resources, and prison space. We might as well reap tax rewards from it.

This is such a no brainer issue, but for all I know it will get shot down. The war on drugs was always a failure, this is one step towards righting that.

What, I thought the right was against taxes???? Gasp, two conservatives contradicting themselves on the same post, oh my!!!
One this issue I totally go right wing. Why tax and regulate something they should just legalize and be done with?
Trying to get a cut of something that I grow on my own land with my own two hands (cutting out the drug cartels) ... is crazy talk.
They'll get their $$$ from all those DEA agents who send their kids to private schools on the money they earn locking up otherwise harmless citizens for letting some steam off with a joint every other day.
People complain about a loss of 'productivity' if it's legalized.... but I think a person behind bars is about the least productive person I can possibly imagine.

That's with regards to medical marijuana. I'm not sure how they will treat it when legalized, but I'm sure a majority of the state will be pissed if something passed in a proposition is attacked by the federal government.

You obviously don't understand conservatives. What you are referring to is called a libertarian... fiscally conservative/socially liberal.
Conservatives are fiscally conservative/socially conservative. Conservatives do support laws. Conservatives support moral standards and legalizing marijuana is not something conservatives believe in.
Lastly, sacredgrooves is not a conservative if he believes in legalizing it. Legalizing marijuana is akin to legalizing abortion for most conservatives. sacredgrooves is at best a libertarian.
Even if California makes marijuana legal it still wont be legal. Federal law overrules state law..
Who knows what the federal government stands for anymore... we used to know... not so much anymore.
