Illinois HB 2514

and dont forget fuck our new governor..gotta rid the state of these damn democrates and gonna be worse since Daleys brother is going to run for Governor and probably win from the hbeavy dumacrate vote in this state. i cant figure out why people vote for democrates especially in this state since they ruin it a quick as they can and kill the people.Vote republican and stop the murder of america

lmao if weed gets legal im still not going to pay taxes on it and kant u live in chicago

Hey if you can just go and pick up some grade-a bud most people will,it's all about convenience.

hope they legalize it soon

how old do you need to be to get a mmj card? 21 or 18

I'll be gone til' November as far as this thread goes

Age is set by the state or county that sets it up. i would guess illinois will make it 21 same as alcohol and then if your nuts enough tolkive in cook county you will have to pay 6 times as much as anyone in another county due to the city taxes and the new Obama sin tax increase such as the 165% tobacco tax increase

I don't think you can federally tax something that is "illegal" by federal law. MJ laws however are a state's right, however they are illegal under current federal law. That's why the lame ass DEA tries to bust these groweries cali all the time (since it's a states right it's borderline illegal what they are doing). Most of us will just have to pay the bullshit cook county tax of 10 to 11% + whatever other bullshit county tax they want to add on.

thats a whole bunch of however's there sir , I dont know why they wold even put an age on it considering they give minors pain killers thats what its for right

oh yeah true. in 8th grade i broke my arm but was given tylonol-3. that has codeine in it.

i heard of a case in cali of a 14 year old with a card. i think it was in the movie american drug war the great white line or something like that. they said he mostly ate his meds.

any recent news on this bill?

its been kind of pigeon holed til fall session. all they are working on now is the budget bill

I was told it passed today but havent been able to find anything on that. Ive been watching cltv to see if its mentioned and so far nothing. I did find www.illinoismedicalmarijuana.org and they have a phone number that i called and left a msg. Im legal in hawaii but come to ilinois almost every other week so id like to get to the bottom of this so I can comply with all laws i need to.

Hasnt been to final vote yet although yesterday cook county passed a revised posseion law making possesion of under10 grams a simple fine with no record. You get a $200 ticket and no arrst or record for it. Todd Stroker yes I called him stroker has to sign off on it though so you never know. If he does it takes affect 60 days from signing.

Ok after some checking yes all that did happen is that cook county voted to decriminalize it. Its a step but nothing not really. I want the med law to pass this one is crap as you are still a criminal.

You are simple minded and do not see the bigger picture. It's happening.

I heard something on the news yesterday, some asinine comment by Chi-town MayorMayor Daley... something about "smoking is bad... but lets pass marijuana bill (sarcastic), but maybe the governor will veto it."

I thought I had found news on it yesterday on my blackberry, but I see nothing in the news.

Latest news is the senate passed it, and now it goes back to the house for a vote, then the governor signs it. Should go either way this year.

Illinois medical users unite!

Here is the article about the proposed Cook County law revision. There is a very interesting poll in the left hand column.... out of 1,324 votes, 856 (64%) voted that they should legalize MJ altogether and tax it.... hope those dumbass politicians read the sun-times and listen to their constituents...

This law amendment is going to be a trial I guarantee it. It only effects those in unincoroprated Cook county. So if the sheriff caught you then you get a ticket thats it no court date no record just pay the fine. If it generates enough money frees up the courts and no issues it will be used in the argument for stae legalization next year.. Should be a good thing to watch
