Pot News
Pot News presents relevant articles by topic about various parts of the drug
war primarily as
it relates to cannabis, medical marijuana, and hemp. How
does this war on drugs (really a war on people) affect Americans? How does
it affect your civil rights under the constitution, doctor patient rights,
and access to medical marijuana? Topics also include international
prohibition as well as the prison industrial complex, hemp, driving,
editorials, and our courts.
Legalizing Marijuana?
A California lawmaker introduced a bill to "tax and regulate marijuana in a
manner similar to alcohol." Later, U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder
indicated that the Obama administration may end raids on pot dispensaries in
California. Is this the beginning of a sea change in drug policy both in
California and the nation?
