[QUOTE="gst, post: 93829, member: 373"] For medicinal use.. no recreational use ..yes raider, didn't take it any other way, and agree about the feds, just taking an opportunity to share the beef message and promote a little Akushi beef for when ours is ready for sale.Thumbs Up [URL="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00JJTA5LM/?tag=nodakangler10-20"][IMG]http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51fcUfliPFL._AC_AA190_.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [COLOR="silver"][SIZE=1]- - - Updated - - -[/SIZE][/COLOR] Eric, this measure will allow candied gummi bear pot. Do you have an issue with it? http://bismarcktribune.com/news/state-and-regional/petition-for-proposed-ballot-measure-to-legalize-marijuana-in-north/article_211ef378-b61a-5b0b-a445-0f895531fa21.html A petition for a proposed ballot measure that would legalize marijuana in North Dakota was submitted Wednesday to the secretary of state’s office. The committee’s petition for the statutory measure was received by the North Dakota Secretary of State’s office at about 4 p.m. Wednesday. [B]Group members are looking to remove from North Dakota Century Code all references to marijuana and [U]substances deriving from cannabis as being illegal drugs[/U] as well as possession of marijuana paraphernalia[/B]. If approved, the measure would also set a legal age of 21 for possession of marijuana and paraphernalia as well as the growing of it. Taxation of marijuana by local or state government would be capped at 20 percent sales tax. “We don’t think the reasons for a prohibition are legitimate,” committee chairman Eric Olson of Fargo said in a phone interview. Olson said smoking marijuana is a lifestyle choice that the public shouldn’t be punished for, adding that it being illegal has led to increased numbers of incarcerated people and an enormous black market for the product. He referred to arguments about marijuana being dangerous as “propaganda” and said he believes the public has largely become accepting of the substance if given the chance to vote on it. The secretary of state’s office has five to seven business days to produce a petition title and approve it for style and format. Being a statutory initiative it would require 13,452 legitimate signatures at least 120 days before the election. The deadline for the November election is July 11, 2016. Olson said the group plans to get the measure on the November ballot. Wednesday’s measure is the second marijuana initiative submitted for this election cycle. Last fall a group pushing for a medical marijuana initiative was submitted. After initially being rejected it was approved and signature gathering is underway. Olson said having two potential marijuana measures on the ballot isn’t a problem. He said people can “vote for one or the other or both.” Olson said the group will begin to get petition circulators and begin working on a formal campaign after petition approval is granted. Lawmakers rejected two pieces of medical marijuana legislation last session. In February a bill to legalize medical marijuana to those with a prescription failed by a 26-67 vote. In March a resolution for an interim study of legalization of medical marijuana for those with serious medical conditions failed by a 32-61 vote [/QUOTE]
