I was going to suggest that he's probably exhausted all the male whore possibilities in central NC and Vegas might be a nice departure for him.

Of all the states in the union, why isn't pot legal here?

Two years after the Nevada Legislature passed a law allowing regulated dispensaries and cultivators to serve the state’s medical marijuana patients, the system is finally rolling out. So far, at least two dispensaries have opened, with dozens to follow across the state. Meanwhile, cultivators and processors are working overtime to meet demand. This modest but important phase is a huge step to providing help to the state’s seriously ill patients, as well as those medical marijuana patients visiting Nevada.
Meanwhile, a campaign to bring legalization for adults 21 and over is underway in the Silver State. Initiative Petition 1, which would tax and regulate marijuana similarly to alcohol, has been certified for the 2016 ballot.

Because possession of weed in Nevada used to be a felony from what I understand. As little as five years ago. Even their decriminalized laws are excessive.TheCatt wrote:Of all the states in the union, why isn't pot legal here?
Although Nevada is considered a “decriminalization” state, simple possession of marijuana can still be treated harshly. First offense possession of up to an ounce is punishable by a $600 fine instead of jail time, but it remains a misdemeanor. The individual is subject to arrest and drug addiction screening that could lead to mandatory treatment and rehabilitation, and a criminal conviction can lead to a lifetime of discrimination which can limit job opportunities and housing options. A second offense carries a $1,000 fine and drug addiction screening. The penalties for third and fourth offenses continue to worsen. Incredibly, possession of two ounces could land a Nevadan in jail for four years.
$600 is horseshit for a first offense. The mandatory rehab for bud for the second time is even stupider. What the fuck are you rehabbing from? The crippling chemical withdrawal? Then tossing a $1K fine on top of that? The jail time for two ounces seems even stupider.

I'm sure the alcohol lobby is strong in their state legislature.

Liquor companies mainly spend their time advertising their products and doing pro bono shit to up PR. I don't think they worry about bud until it's got a real chance at being legalized. Those dudes contribute to anti-drug bullshit via fronts like these.
PDFA was the subject of criticism when it was revealed by Cynthia Cotts of the Village Voice that their federal tax returns showed that they had received several million dollars worth of funding from major pharmaceutical, tobacco and alcohol corporations including American Brands (Jim Beam whiskey), Philip Morris (Marlboro and Virginia Slims cigarettes, Miller beer), Anheuser Busch (Budweiser, Michelob, Busch beer), R.J. Reynolds (Camel, Salem, Winston cigarettes), as well as pharmaceutical firms Bristol Meyers-Squibb, Merck & Company and Procter & Gamble. In 1997 it discontinued any direct fiscal association with tobacco and alcohol suppliers, although it still receives donations from pharmaceutical companies.
Because those dudes don't make drugs that are abused at a higher rate than street chems nor do they make drugs that kill more people through OD.
I think the answer here is that Nevada is very much a red state which is as backwards moronic as Iowa, Alabama, or Oklahoma in their enforcement of moral self-righteousness and scientific ignorance.
DUI penalties pursuant to H.B. 1441, effective October 1, 2013, a person will be jailed for no less than 30 days or more than 1 year if: A person as any amount of a Schedule I chemical or controlled substance, as defined in Section 2-204 of Title 63 of the Oklahoma Statutes, OR ONE OF ITS METABOLITES OR ANALOGS in the person’s blood, saliva, urine or any other bodily fluid at the time of a test of such person's blood, saliva, urine or any other bodily fluid administered within two (2) hours after the arrest of such person
Oklahoma: first offense is 30 to 365 days in jail. If you bake brownies, however, you're going away for much longer.
New penalties for possession or making of hashish, a grinder, or brownies may include life imprisonment were enacted in 2011.
I may be mistaken, but I think you can rob, rape, or accidentally kill someone with less of a punishment. The grinder possession is off the charts fucking stupid and any legislator supporting that piece of shit law should be removed from public service for the public good.

The thing one uses to grind coarse, dried bud into a more consistent form. Purchasable on Amazon.
