Why are we so interested in how i spell?? lol who cares its not a freakin essay if i dont spell well it dosent change anything or have anything to do with what im saying...and the fact that you quote what i saw and repost just lets more people read what i already wrote dosent help me change my mind just helps me get my word out more really .........and lastly the fact that my spelling irritates you enough to have to write a responce about it makes me laugh and want to continue miss spelling on purpuse just to get a rise out of you...and yes yes i know your going to say it dosent make you mad but if that was really the case you wouldnt have even botherd to bring up my spelling......too funny"[Editor's note: 1) Have you actually read the initiative (it is not a legislative bill)? The initiative language specifically mentions medical cannabis patients NOT being impacted by the passage of the initiative. 2) Use a spell check as such poor writing undercuts your concerns and credibility.]"
That's this guy getting flamed for posting his selfish negativism on a thread in a NORML forum.

Seriously guy? There are spell checking features on some of these web browsers... might want to check into that so you don't look like a fool.
He is not making anything up. I believe he is just trying to sort out how you can rationalize not voting for prop 19.
I don't think you guys realize what it would do for all the states of the union if it was passed. I don't live in California but I believe if it is passed other states would have to start thinking about rescheduling marijuana. As far as revenue goes, it will bring in more taxes and will probably even bring in more residents. I'm going to be graduating college in about 2 years and I'm going to go where ever I have the most freedom. I've had to deal with being punished for a victimless crime; I was arrested last summer for having a pipe and spent a night in jail for a PIPE?!?! Give me a break. This movement isn't just for California, it's for all states!

You're the one in the Politics forum telling people they should vote NO on something without any kind of argument in support of it besides "Jack said so".i have no argument. and i see no reason to justify anything. since when do i have to answer to anyone here?
now start throwing insults, because that always makes you look better.
Besides that, I believe as a mod you should probably start acting like one and be respectful to your fellow posters instead of chest puffing all the time; I mean, this is a politics subforum people come here to discuss political issues and you basically stated your opinion without backing any of it up and when people ask you to you tell them you dont have to.
Well sir, that is the expectation of a politics subforum. Debate. One is expected to be able to back up their claims if they ever want to be taken seriously; You have not done so.
Let me show you an example:
I believe that voting YES would be a good thing, it is the best option on the table for the country as a whole. If California gets this through it is more likely that other states will follow suit. We are talking snowball effect here; Even an imperfect law like this one can change everything and the imperfections will be easier to fix than to vote NO now and have the NO vote used by naysayers as fuel to keep NO votes coming.
That is an argument.
Now ban me, because I'm sure that will make you feel better.

ummm, i'm american and don't get to vote on it. only californians. i will forgive the geography error, but for goodness sake:
insults are going to get this thread shut down! so please refrain so we can keep this one going.

voting yes ADDS new laws to the books which will get MORE people arrested.
it is only 100 dollar fine to posses an ounce today.
you will go to jail smoking in the same house as your 17 year old child yet you are only allowed to smoke in your home.
this bill was written by pot clubs to benefit pot clubs. it is about more money for a few people. it is not about you.
there are better options being worked on as this all happens.
i could go on and on, but no one's listening anyways so just keep insulting me. i don't mind. i still have my vote.

You sure seem to have some kind of persecution complex FDD...
But I guess you'll just take that as an insult too, huh?

i just had 3 people call me names. i wouldn't call that a complex, just a simple fact.You sure seem to have some kind of persecution complex FDD...

arnt you the one that started the thread? dont you think if you are telling people to vote no you could give some bulleted reasons? If you are trying to sway people to your side your doing a very bad job of it. (dont think thats an insult, just constructive critisism). Sway me. Show me your side, you started this thread. Or am i to just vote no because some dude on the internets said so?
