Oh please. Do you still believe republicans fight for you? Come on. Ron Paul is an anomaly, he did not get the memo that republicans are now for curbing civil liberties.
100 grams is 3.5 ounces. lets say.. the average person puts a half 1/8th of weed per joint (1.75 grams), a fair estimate, 100 grams will yield about 60 joints give or take. i can get an ounce of high quality cali bud for bout $200. if youre lookin at 3.5 ounces at that price, around $700. however these are street prices and will vary on who you know, how much you know, and how much you buy. you get more bud for your buck the more your willing to spend.
thats a fat joint, plus who the hell rolls KBs into joints? get some glass, its all about the ritual. right now all i can get is shwag, it would take me about a month to smoke 3.5 ounces considering i dont smoke when i go to work or have to drive. for comparison frito lay big grabs are 1.5 ounces, so like 2 of those would give a pretty good idea once you took out all the stems and seeds.
I wonder what his argument is for Marijuana being an "illicit drug".Marijuana = MexicoCocaine/Heroine/other hard drugs = South/Latin American countries.
I support this 100%. American laws regarding this and many other non-physically addictive medicines need to be reevaluated now that we have learned so much more since this plants and chemicals were criminalized. I believe that there is NOTHING wrong with occasionally vaporizing (instead of smoking) a small amount of potent cannabis in the safety of your own home. This eliminates the tar from smoking and is perfectly healthy. It is absolutely unbelievable to me that you can still be incarcerated or barred from employment for this. Don't get me wrong, I still believe that there is a proper time and place for marijuana use (it should never be used during work or while driving). Legalization is long overdue.
I'll tell you one Congressman that will vote against it - Elton Gallegly. He's strongly opposed and a rubber stamping Bush supporter to boot. Vote to get Gallegly out of office.

it is about time! nice to see at least one member of congress gets this issue and that the American people don't want marijuana users thrown in jail.

Or if you have what they think is an unreasonable amount of money (however much that is) on your person, they'll charge you with intent to distribute.
