Michigan joins 12 other states in the USA who have passed legislation approving the use of medical marijuana.The rest of that story is here.
About 2.5 million voters voted for Proposal 1 while only about 1.5 million voted against, according to figures reported by the Detroit Free Press on 5th November.
Proposal 1 goes into effect later this month, after which state law will allow patients suffering from cancer, hepatitis C, HIV/AIDS, glaucoma and other illnesses to grow, possess and use marijuana.
When this happens, it will mean that 25 per cent of Americans will be living in a state where marijuana for medical use is legal. Patients will be allowed to grow up to 12 marijuana plants and possess 2.5 ounces at any one time.
And Evo Morales is kicking our DEA out of Bolivia, charging that DEA agents have been protecting narco-traffickers, have been spying on and conspiring to overthrow him, have killed Bolivians with impunity and destroyed Bolivian infrastructure. Looks like the War on Drugs is raging, and we're losing (yea!!)
Although pretty radical, I agree with this take on our current "trouble" with Bolivia.
