Monday night (September 24, 2012), the Springfield Missouri City Council repealed a marijuana decriminalization ordinance that the City Council passed the measure themselves, only to be able to repeal the ordinance so it could not go to the ballot and deny voters the chance of voting for it!

Bitch slap for being a hippie.
Marijuana needs to be criminalized. Local voters do not trump Federal statutes.

and besides the more maggot infested, drugged-up hippies we pull off the streets and toss into prison, the better.


So, elrozo...are you a user? can I turn you in?

Also BS'd, first because nobody who ought to be voting at all gives a rat's ass about marijuana decriminalization/legalization, and secondly because your post doesn't say which ones voted for or against the action which time, so even the couple of members here who live in Springfield wouldn't have gotten any useful information from that for their own voting purposes, regardless of how they personally felt about weed.

I'm a conservative that believes Marijuana should be decriminalized. The Fed should stay out of it and leave it up to the individual States.

Bitch slapped because you've been a member of the board for 10 hours now, and you still haven't selected an avatar to replace Da Cavedude.  Suspicious, troll-like activity, if'n you ask me...

:confused: Nothing I have encountered to date explains Vesta.

But I do admit that this site would be a smaller place without her.
