The DC Council passed a medical marijuana law in May, but while the law was signed by the mayor, it still had to undergo a period of Congressional review that lasts 30 legislative days. That 30-day period concluded Monday, according to the mayor’s office, so the law officially went into effect Tuesday. A panel of Calvina L. Fay of the Drug Free America Foundation and Aaron Houston from SSDP join RT’s Kristine Frazao to debate. Will the capital become a haven for weed?

To those against cannabis: Don’t use it then! But don’t take my freedom away to put in my body what I want! I won’t even argue with you on the health issues and moral issues, but I will say it is HEALTH for you and it is use in the BIBLE.

One thing the Media, Cops, lobbyists and lesbo do-gooders seem to be missing here Cannabis is a naturally occurring plant, part of nature. So what gives anyone I don’t give a toss who they are, to say it’s illegal? Since when does any man or woman make the laws of nature, time for the establishments to get off their high horses and realise that they too are just a part of nature!

She was saying the dispensaries were being robbed, this is because marijuana is still ILLEGAL and expensive. Legalize it and this won’t be happening.

@dropdeadaubrey Including a certain Rick Simpson & because of him i’ve now seen 2 people locally completely cured of cancer through the use of pure hemp oil, one a terminal lung cancer patient. I’ll be watching the developments of this with interest.

@bushdidit2u911 No, then we’ll be like the evil Dutch! LOL I’ve been to Amsterdam and the teens there could care less about getting drunk or getting high because they have been around it for so long they want nothing to do with either of the two. Same with alcohol in Baltimore, I was served from 19 on up and now I don’t care to drink, but everyone who had to wait til 21 to drink is still drinking today, and heavily at that. Legalize and see intoxication rates drop in 10-15 years, just like A-dam

@mmaaxx1198 maybe your right!!!! it was de criminalised here for decade until about 4 years ago then they criminalised it and all it did was made it more expensive and put more incentive for organised crime to get more involved! bikies ect! i am a smoker and used to love the old de-crim theory coz they will never legalise it coz they suck ass! lol… i would love it to be legal
