Pardon me a moment while I take a mental picture....it's a bit surreal but true. On November 4th, District voters overwhelmingly approved Initiative 71 which will legalize the limited possession and cultivation of marijuana by adults who are 21 or older. Wow! Right!? But this does not change the federal law, which still strictly prohibits marijuana, and it doesn't go into effect unless if clears a 30 day Congressional review. Bottom line, this is a first step, not a major victory, for those who support legalizing marijuana. Still now is a very good time … (0 comments)
