If Prop 19 Passes, Would You Consider Moving to California?

[RonPaulwillWin]

Didn't Meg Whitman say that she wouldn't sign the bill even if it passed?

[dannno]

I don't think governors have to sign referendums :confused:

[fisharmor]

I'd need unrestricted open carry and shall-issue CCW too (or better yet, Alaska-style carry).
And being able to buy a >1500sf house for <300k would help a lot.
So no, I don't think so.

[LibertyVox]

Would I?
Is the good root the only reason? seriously?

No, but it is A great reason ;)

Not just cause it's legal (already for patients, hopefully soon for everyone), but also cause we grow it better here :cool:

[speciallyblend]

sorry cali, i voted i would never move to cali! I live In the United States of Colorado!!! I will be watching the cali prop 19 race very closely!! Go Get'em Dannno

[squarepusher]

it will definitely be a new world cannabis tourism unlike anything seen before.

[specsaregood]

I'll certainly put it on my vacation destination list.

haha yep ,i was thinking samething but hey you should come to co mtns this winter! Can take some tree runs to the smoke shack and have a safety break;)

Nah I'd prefer to fight for marijuana legalization in my state of Massachusetts. Everyone I talk to around my area, Republican/Dem/Indie, all support marijuana legalization. I don't know why it isn't on the ballot.

[dannno]

I really should have added a sixth option for the poll: No, won't move there, but will be sure to visit!

everyone is waiting for someone else to put it on the ballot;) you might have to push the issue yourself and wake some folks up!!

I got friends there who are licensed growers for med. marijuana. Young guys, college going and bright. That's how some of them pay for their sky rocketing tuition. Guess what though Danno....the it is still against the FEDRAL law. And yes 2 out of 3 of them have had their places intruded by the Feds, their licenses suspended and they had to pay heavy fines, on top of already crushing tuition fees. One of them supports his mother and younger brother too. :(

But if the prop passes, maybe it will set a kind of a trend. I dare say the current popular cultural is as suspicious of the govt. as it was smitten with it 9 years ago. SO I guess not all's bad.

[jkr]

norcal design


its got a ring to it...

[Depressed Liberator]

I've wanted to live in southern California for some just simply because the weather agrees with me better than anywhere else in the States. This would certainly encourage me, though!

[speciallyblend]

yep but i can tell you everyone that has voted in this poll is already planning on that to hehe;)

[silentshout]

I already live in California and don't plan to move.

[BlackTerrel]

Ever since the one gay judge overturned prop 8 it all seems kind of pointless.

What if prop 19 passes and then this gay judge doesn't like it?

[speciallyblend]

I already live in California and don't plan to move.

you near san diego? i love the beaches there!!

No jail time, just heavy fines? What are we talkin for fines?

[LibertyVox]

no jail AFAIK. Don't know the amount of the fine. I'll ask em.

[Jordan]

If you'd move to another state for the sole purpose of smoking weed you should probably reconsider your priorities.

LOL , judges are unreliable . California judges are a really different breed from what I read .

I would move to Central America before I would move to California . What is sales tax now 11 % ? I cannot participate in that .

[RM918]

Have no interest in weed nor being around the stuff (the smell is particularly offensive to me). Good for you guys, though.

[speciallyblend]

haha yeah,most states the fine for possession is cheaper then a speeding ticket(colorado for example)! In states where it is a criminal act. they should move the f out asap especially the backwards east coast states!! do not move to colorado for the marijuana laws;) move to colorado for the lifestyle and activities! SNOWBOARDING,Skiing,Rafting etc etc

[dannno]

Thanks for telling me how to live my life :)

I think it is perfectly reasonable to make the decision on where you live based on whether that area allows the growing and consumption of one of most important plants in human history.

Not to mention CA kicks ass in many other areas... great surf, great snowboarding, great music.. I hate L.A. though.

mmmm i love the smell of good marijuana! makes a good cologne better then freaking polo and the crap they sell in the stores;)

[dannno]

The sales tax I believe is about 8%. My local municipality has added about .5% onto that.

[Humanae Libertas]

Who would wanna move here? Cali is a failing state. I think more people are moving out of CA, than moving in.

[dannno]

Smoked mj can be quite strong and overpowering to people who aren't used to it.. but the cured buds, especially the purple ones and trainwreck and some others can smell AMAZING before smoked!!

He'd get over it if he tried it and enjoyed it pretty quickly.

Well at .5 you are better than Philly , I think they add 2 % , I would not participate in that as well .

Right now that's true, but it is cyclical.. too many people move here during the booms and then during the busts there is a shedding of population.

[LibertyVox]

For some reason this thread makes me hungry for something baked and chocolaty lol.
Too bad there is no such desert in existence.

CA is a nice place with beautiful sites, but it is an economic disaster and not freedom friendly. The standard of living here is one of the most expensive of the 50 states. What huge acre ranch house would cost in most rural states, can only buy you a small ass single house in the middle of East LA in California.

Ya but I'd rather live in a shack near the beach than a mansion somewhere boring.

[Natalie]

I voted No Way. I lived in Southern California for a year and I hated it.

But , I like my peaceful boring place . When I think excitement , there is usually law enforcement involved and I try to avoid that at all costs . :)

Do you like Houston ? I enjoy San Antonio when I visit there .

[specsaregood]

I lived there for 5 years, I loved it, but hated the effing traffic. I moved because of the traffic (somewhat)

[dannno]

Ya, I hate L.A. and Orange County with a passion, I would never live there.. Even most of San Diego is starting to get pretty sucky.. but I'm at least an hour and a half away from all those places and I can't imagine living anywhere else.

LA is a no symmetrical glorified mega jumbo suburb.

If I could live anywhere in the world, this would be it:

LA is a no symmetrical glorified mega jumbo suburb.

And most of the people who live there suck ass.

Not to mention the traffic is awful...

[coastie]

Voted no. HELL No. As much as I love the herb, not a chance in hell. I'll take my old grumpy people, gun lovin', NO STATE INCOME TAX havin', worst penalties in the country with regards to marijuana havin' State of Florida over that state anyday.

And you only think you grow it better there, you're caught up in you're own states hype on that:rolleyes:;)

But i wish you guys all the best luck with it, hope the votes reflect the polls:D

[Rael]

No way

[BuddyRey]

Will it be legal on the outlying California islands too? I've often thought of moving to Santa Catalina and running boat tours or being a lounge singer.

I done did parasailing and all that in Catalina...back then when dear dad was less thrifty. LOL

[Stary Hickory]

I don't smoke even if I do support removing all bans. It's just that CA has a lot of horrible that is still there, I mean a lot. Being able to smoke would not be enough of an incentive.

[Toureg89]

So no, I don't think so.
couldnt agree more.

and preferably, a Castle Doctrine style freedom of self defense
