Around Town, posted by , a resident of , on Feb 7, 2013 at 10:09 am

California Supreme Court justices at a hearing in San Francisco Tuesday appeared likely to rule that cities in the state have the right to ban medical marijuana dispensaries within their borders. The decision may affect one San Ramon Valley town, which passed such a ban in 2011.

Pot dispensaries bring crime and lowlifes. We don't need anyone buying their pot here in TriValley! The Dirkarino would appreciate it if the weasels politicians would keep this goat poop out of our neighborhoods at any cost.

The argument for legalization is strong, but the rules and laws need to be well organized before it is mainstreamed by the FEDS and Calif.. Washington and Colorado are struggling, because the laws on the books don't fit the situation.

The Feds will eventually have to deal with changing perceptions of the drug. The Dirka does not bang the gong, but understands the medical need for some and understands that others are exploiting loopholes. TV programs are devillainize the wacky tobaci, so it’s just a matter of time before the FEDs leave it up to the States.

The problem will be once it's legal, people will grow it in their back yards next to their tomato plants. The next thing that will happen is that teenagers will hop fences and swipe the plants - - not good. Austrailia makes people grow it indoors.

The Dirka wants to invest in any company making breathalyzer technology for THC.
