The Barnyard

Props to Washington and Colorado for finally breaking through the ceiling and legalizing marijuana.

It will be interesting to see how the feds handle this.

Feds have their hands busy with meth, coke, crack, etc.

Does anybody know the particulars of the Colorado initiative? Will cannabis be sold in dispensaries and taxed? Or is it now simply legal to possess in small quantities? There's a lot of money to be made in that there plant.

You can possess up to an ounce. You cannot smoke it in public places, however. It's different than in California, in that you don't have to have a prescription, and then go buy your weed at one of those shops. It's legal to possess in small quantities. Buying and selling is a bit of a grey area, I would imagine.

Not Sammy Watkins but I'm thinking about a transfer.

Before this law was passed, it was fairly easy to obtain anyway. Doctors handed out scrips like candy, just complain of a migraine and you have it. If anything, this will eliminate the cost of doctors visits (the card had to be renewed yearly with a doc's visit) and filing fees for the license but I'm sure the price of the product will skyrocket due to the taxes associated.

If your company drug tests, as mine does, then it doesn't matter if it's legal at the state level or not, still can't puff, puff, pass unless you want to risk a job loss.
