Utah Legislature Overrides The People But OK's Medical Cannabis
Forums:
For years the legislature ignored the pleas for medical cannabis. So the people acted.
They persevered through the ridiculous state requirements for a ballot initiative and Proposition 2 passed this past election day.
So the mormon church got with the mormon taliban in the legislature and just passed a medical cannabis bill in a one-day special session, a law that will override the vote of the people.
As one might expect, the new law does not make medical cannabis as accessible to patients as Proposition 2 did.
Thankfully we have a firebrand attorney, former-Salt Lake Mayor Rocky Anderson, who seems willing to take on the taliban in the courts. Stay tuned.
(I'm proud to say Rocky agreed to introduce me at the Utah Arts Festival last June. I've played at a few of his protest rallies in years past, including one where George W. Bush came to town.)
What this means is highways to Colorado and Nevada, where Wendover 110 miles away from Salt Lake City will open up a recreational cannabis shop this summer, will still be the roads to medical freedom for Utah patients. And once again the mormon church and the mormon taliban in the legislature has rendered the will of the people irrelevant. That's why some call it the "righteouslature".

I'll bite; just spent 5 days at the coast, and took a pile of pics, but instead of boring a non-audience with those, I'll bore the void with my prankster Christmas presents I got tonight;

Anyway, I still think Utah is full of Scenic Beauty, and a weird place.
Flown through SLC a bunch of times + drove through Utah on a few occasions.

Pyramid, have you ever been to Utah? If you have and you think it's a shit hole, then respectfully, you're insane. I've traveled throughout a good chunk of the world including multiple deserts and mountain chains. Hell, I even lived in Montana for almost a decade...and let me tell you, Utah is definitely top 3 or 5 (max) of amazing places I've been to in my life. Really, the natural beauty of Utah is such that it really just leaves a mark on your soul forever.

Actually it's really beautiful there, w/ some amazing Outdoor scenery and even Hot Springs. Moab is long considered a Mtn. biking Mecca. Also it is seething with the unique Mormon cult, an American equivalent to the wiggly Jihadi moooslems which love to infest unprepared foreign nations.
They are much more subtle and insidious compared to their Burka - clad cousins, though. They masquerade as ordinary Civilians and don't blow stuff up, unless there is an economic gain for the Cult.
Their strategy is long - term infiltration of corporate and political structures. Just a bit of research will shed light upon why the original group got kicked out of every State, until they wound up in the Utah Desert.
The old GD tune "Salt Lake City" sheds much light upon the topic.

The version I've heard goes --
"Why do you always take TWO Baptists fishing ?"
