OPPOSE THE 2010 TAX CANNABIS INITIATIVE: 18 REASONS TO VOTE KNOW

"People think it's legalization, it's being sold as legalization-even though it's the opposite of legalization." - Dennis Peron, author of Prop. 215 that legalized medical marijuana in California

When most marijuana activists, growers and consumers first heard about an
initiative that would legalize cannabis in California, they thought it was
a pipe dream come true. To many, legalization implied that it would no
longer be a crime to possess, consume or distribute marijuana. Cannabis
consumers rejoiced at the idea of being able to buy from their neighbors
or at parties-just as they already do-with no legal retribution.

Small-time growers envisioned being free to sell their product to those
who sought them out, with no legal repercussions. Marijuana activists
thought it meant that people would stop getting arrested for pot, and that
the drug war would finally be over. But now that the initiative is headed
to ballot, many pro-legalization supporters are coming out against it.
