The state kinda bit themselves in the ass with A64, because many parts of it are a word-for-word copy of A20, except they replace the word "patient" with "any person 21 and over". The 6 plants per person is gonna make it all go nuts. How do you track any of that? You can get all your buddies to sign sublease contracts for 4x4 or 4x8 spaces in your garage or other space, and you get 6 plants per person. There is no med paperwork and cops don't have much of an argument if they come and try to take a peek. People having surplus and selling 1oz. person-to-person could very much lead to a farmer's market side to the biz, where the consumer wins on quality, more well defined quality/price tiers reappear, and the dispensaries are starting to reappear.
Got a buddy that works with some big guys with the state, keeps me informed about what they are doing. He said that the dispensaries have been pleading with the state to go after small private caregivers, as the big crap shops were losing customers by the week, and had 64 not passed, it would of still been the #1 agenda. Basically we threw a giant monkey wrench into their gears, that even in worse case scenario, buy us small-time guys another year or so.
It's not that bad. Many worse counties in CO. But when you're from the PRB...Jefferson county will never do that, but why would you grow there in the first place?
Where do you come up with that? Not that i doubt your opinion but what makes you think he has that option?Hick the Dick may back out...
As i understand it the Hick only has a 60 day window to 'certify the election' after that he is in violation of state law. While he does wield power it is out of his hands as to when and how he must act, he cannot decide to fail to uphold the laws of the state of Colorado without facing a potential impeachment from the position of governor ~ and brother that is the LAW!Never know what they will do to undermine the will of the people.
He could delay till feds decide in order to prevent lawsuits who knows...
whatever happens will keep on as allways....
In a sense he already has declared the vote, so it is effective.
(9) Effective date. UNLESS OTHERWISE PROVIDED BY THIS SECTION, ALL PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION SHALL BECOME EFFECTIVE UPON OFFICIAL DECLARATION OF THE VOTE HEREON BY PROCLAMATION OF THE GOVERNOR, PURSUANT TO SECTION 1(4) OF ARTICLE V.
http://ballotpedia.org/wiki/index.php/Article_V,_Colorado_Constitution
(4) The veto power of the governor shall not extend to measures initiated by or referred to the people. All elections on measures initiated by or referred to the people of the state shall be held at the biennial regular general election, and all such measures shall become the law or a part of the constitution, when approved by a majority of the votes cast thereon, and not otherwise, and shall take effect from and after the date of the official declaration of the vote thereon by proclamation of the governor, but not later than thirty days after the vote has been canvassed. This section shall not be construed to deprive the general assembly of the power to enact any measure.
You know, when he said 'the voter's have spoken, don't break out the Cheetos and Goldfish just yet." sounds like the 'proclamation of the Governor' to me. My fair lady Colorado, it's not just the ravaging mountain lions and man-eating coyotes that keep me here. Strong fucking State Constitution to boot. He has not the constitutional authority to veto it, it is the will of the people. I'm sure there is some legalspeak requirement for 'proclamation of the governor', signing it, but still the vote has been declared and he can't veto it.
Where would you prefer i hang my stocking,.......SANTA BABY YOUR THE ONE!!!!Did Hick sign this into law yet? Gonna be interesting to see the Feds reaction to it all.
Either way.....folks bes' be steppin up their games NOW. Call those friends, call those med friends and ex-patients you used to CG for, call yer neighbor you know is cool....call 'em and tell em yer >still< open for biz, as always. Better. Cheaper. Always available. (no store hours...and no fuckin TAXES....LOL)
like the dispensaries, the >novelty< of being able to buy weed legally in a store will fade quickly, (if it happens at all) especially if the street prices are lower....which they will be due to overhead and general greed of the players. We have the edge for a change right now, folks.....we just need to use it.
And hey.....since it will (soon) be fully legal to GIFT less than an ounce, SantaBud is gonna wrap some nice, frosty nugs up and take the sleigh around to all the little kiddies he can think of...droppin nugs in their stockings and putting the bug in their ear to spread his message far and wide...
So get on it little pot elves! Scrooge McFed is gonna nix this but good and leave the door wide open for huge change...and as always, change is the ONLY constant in play here.....guaranteed.
A64... You mean business as usual? Spoke with some top CO MMJ lawyers the other day... One in which co-wrote A64
I'm pluggin' all my lights in:)
