BREAKING: Did The Federal Government Just Legalize Marijuana?
August 30, 2013

As states continue to nullify federal laws against marijuana and hemp, the federal government has been faced with an important question. It�s been more than 75 years, and marijuana and hemp still remain illegal. Never mind the total lack of reasoning behind the federal government�s ban. Is it time to end the law?

Less than 24 hours ago, it all came crashing down. According to the Associated Press, the justice department said that states can allow citizens to use the drug, license people to grow it and allow them to purchase it in stores. As long as the drug is kept away from the black market, children and federal property� It�s a go!

According to Mike Maharrey, national communications director for the Tenth Amendment Center:

�The genie is out of the bottle and she won�t ever go back in. The feds have lost and they know it. No matter how Holder and the DEA couch their words in an attempt to maintain an illusion of control, state actions continue to effectively nullify these unconstitutional marijuana laws.�

When asked if the federal government just essentially legalized marijuana Maharrey responded:

�The announcement makes it clear the feds have no will to fight the states on weed. They can call it an �illegal drug� all they want, but if they can�t, or won�t, stop people from using marijuana, their �law� means nothing.�

The recent surge in nullification has sent states fighting against the federal government on pot use. It would seem that the federal government just gave up. A major victory for the states- no doubt.

You bet! This is one of those wait and see things! Holder simply can't be trusted!

I think what it does is open up the states to finally legalize, tax and profit from, and opens the door fully for medical use.

Don't bogart that joint Lyrics

by Country Joe And The Fish



Don't bogart that joint, my friend
Pass it over to me
Don't bogart that joint, my friend
Pass it over to me

Roll another one
Just like the other one
You've been hangin on to it
And I sure would like a hit

Don't bogart that joint, my friend
Pass it over to me
Don't bogart that joint, my friend
Pass it over to me

Rolllllllllllllllll another one
Just like the other one
That one's just about burned to the end
So come on and be a real friend

Don't bogart that joint, my friend
Pass it over to me
Don't bogart that joint, my friend
Pass it over to me

Everybody sing along this time

Don't bogart that joint, my friend
Pass it over to me
Don't bogart that joint, my friend
Pass it over to me
