Will legalizing Marijuana place our National Security at risk?
We think so.
How will California defend itself against the enemy both foreign and domestic, in a newly intoxicated condition? - Not very well.
The Department of Homeland Security has the threat level in the airline sector set to level “Orange” or “High.” The next threat level would be “Red” for “Severe.” With marijuana legalization, drug paraphernalia would become yet another source of concern for airline security. We cannot afford to be casual about many items, which are banned from being brought on a plane. Drug paraphernalia would add a long list of items, which we must not be burdened with. -

Taxing California by intoxicating Californians with Marijuana is un-American! Take a stand against Proposition 19 and vote NO!
FDA requirements
Animal testing must come first, to ensure marijuana is safe and effective before human trials can begin. - www.fda.gov

"Tax Cannabis 2010" has DEEP FLAWS
If legalized, The Regulate, Control and Tax Cannabis Act of 2010 (The Act) is nothing short of the inmates running the asylum. The Act dictates we must not regulate or (using their words) "discriminate" against users OF ANY KIND. The Act leaves Californians powerless over out-of-control cannabis addiction and use, and it leaves law enforcement having to control drug trafficking at a rate beyond double duty.
The Act further mandates that we cannot go to the legislature to enforce The Act unless it benefits the measure ONLY. The Act describes none of the side effects and mind-altering properties the substance has, which may endanger the lives of others. The Act forbids anyone from controling the behavior of a cannabis user away from work, even if he or she is a addicted to cannabis. There are no safeguards limiting recovering addicts from exposure to cannabis WHATSOEVER.
Socially, this Act would amount to drug users and drug addicts placing unreasonable demands on society, dictating to us that we HAVE TO tolerate casual drug use, whether we like it or not. Economically, we would intoxicate Californians with marijuana and use the tax dollars to create jobs, build schools, libraries, parks and so on WITH DRUG MONEY. Get the picture?
Here are some of the noteworthy highlights:
SECTION 3. The Regulate, Control and Tax Cannabis Act of 2010
Any kind of conduct?
Job impairment by whose standards?
SECTION 5. The Regulate, Control and Tax Cannabis Act of 2010
In other words, if Californians vote for this Act and realize this was a mistake, it will take years to undo like it did in Alaska. See: Re-criminalization in Alaska
SECTION 5. The Regulate, Control and Tax Cannabis Act of 2010
In other words: California's border agents will have to go on double duty trying to control smuggling of cannabis out of California as well as into California. Our tax dollars at work!
California would have a new message for visitors: "Welcome to California, America's number one marijuana tourism hot spot" inviting drug addicts and users from all over the world.
SECTION 2. The Regulate, Control and Tax Cannabis Act of 2010
Here's the math:
U.S. Population approx. 305,000,000
Recent Cannabis users: 15,000,000 = 4.9% of U.S. Population
Cannabis consumption is a fact of life for a large percentage of Americans?
Where are the numbers for California?
SECTION 2. The Regulate, Control and Tax Cannabis Act of 2010
Real Stories & Real Consequences Of Marijuana Use here
Cannabis use causes unrealistic and misguided blame, hostillity, combative and violent behavior. How many harmful effects do we need until we determine that a mind-altering substance is harmful? If cannabis is not addictive then why are so many people seeking treatment for cannabis addiction?
SECTION 2: The Regulate, Control and Tax Cannabis Act of 2010
Licensed outlet stores, the perfect platform for legalizers to continue with their agenda.
SECTION 2: The Regulate, Control and Tax Cannabis Act of 2010
The F.D.A. would have to bring cannabis/marijuana from a Schedule I to a Schedule II drug. This would open a gigantic can of worms for California and the United States. Marijuana would be eligible for advanced clinical trails before any real and approved medical guidelines would be adopted.
SECTION 2: The Regulate, Control and Tax Cannabis Act of 2010
...by voting against The Regulate, Control and Tax Cannabis Act of 2010
If pot is legalized, more people who have never tried it before will be trying it, and after they do they will get in their car and they will be driving on our streets endangering other drivers and pedestrians, creating an insurance nightmare as a result of DUI related traffic accidents.
