Are you kidding? The NO side is funded by holy rollers, liquor distillers and distributors, dispensaries and many more with big coffers.

Funded by? How about enjoyed the support of? If GS has given generously to the initiative, you would have seen numerous ads. The No side is all special interests, including the 215 "surplus" growers....
It sickens me that other pot users and growers would vote to continue prohibition... Utterly ridiculous.....

1 million extra last week alone isn't enough for a private donation?

um, prop 19 is a STATE initiative. the feds will still come get you.
it appears you don't understand that.
if you were compliant under 215 and you still took charges then how can you possibly feel prop 19 will help you? it makes no sense. you were compliant, weren't you?
No they wouldn't, because they would have to arrest over half of California. If Prop 19 passes, they will only be going after big timers, and people that aren't compliant with state law, not just anyone who has a tiny garden or smokes a little herb now and then. The only people that will be negatively affected are those who will lose their black market money. And also people who will lose their sin-money I guess you could call it (Tobacco Company, Alcohol, Pharmaceutical, Dirty Politicians, etc).
I think everyone understands that if you're compliant with the medical laws that you probably won't get arrested, but the government can, and will do what it wants. They will continue to arrest marijuana users, medical, state legal, or state illegal, simply because they're the ones "in power" so they can. That's why Prop 19 is just the starting ground. Everyone knows its not a perfect law, but its a start, and thats what we need, for marijuana prohibition has failed drastically, and legalizing (eventually nationwide) would bring in BILLIONS of needed dollars. Vote yes if you don't like Nancy Pelosi! "There will be no more spending" my fucking ass.
