In California we get to vote on Marijuana Decriminalization in November. Decriminalizing drugs is a good libertarian cause and I’ve always supported it. If you agree that we should try a new approach to controlling drugs go to Yes on Prop 19 and register.
In the 1980’s when I was first collecting books I put together a small collection of books about marijuana. I’ve kept about 20 of the books and now finally they are germane:
This book from the 1930’s had it wrong
I’m trying to figure out what the decriminalization opponents will say:
- “I like drug wars.”
- “Prohibition worked so well.”
- “I don’t want to change my mind.”
- “It is a federal crime so any state law will be moot.”
In future posts I will:
- address these objections and any others that come to light.
- Post where the candidates for office stand on the issue.
- Give you some great quotes from my marijuana book collection.
Peace. Aah the memories.

I think that California is a pace-setting state. If only gay marriage could be passed there for good.
Kollin I agree. But I want it passed through the legislature not the courts. Like Womens Suffrage not Abortion. See my comments on it here:
