Small Victories in a Gloomy Election
Many followers of this blog, and news about the legal status of Marijuana throughout the USA, had two small victories to celebrate in the recent election day results: Massachusetts and Maine both legalized both medicinal and recreational Cannabis use!
Hoorah! Finally a step in the right direction. Big tobacco and alcohol concerns have free run to sell their (highly questionable) wares. Let’s finally end prohibition on a natural and perhaps even beneficial – instead of health damaging – gift of nature.

You’ll enjoy it with the good feeling that it hasn’t passed through shady channels on it’s way to you.

Could it be that the relaxing effects of marijuana are drifting about the continent, and finally permeating the thick walls (and heads) in Washinton?
