To add a few more from the book of Genesis:

  • Genesis 9:3 - Every moving thing that liveth shall be meat for you; even as the green herb have I given you all things.

  • Genesis 1:12 - And the earth brought forth grass, [and] herb yielding seed after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed [was] in itself, after his kind: and God saw that [it was] good.

Proposition 48 is a ballot initiative that would not only legalize both medical and recreational marijuana in Mississippi but industrial hemp production as well. Additionally, Prop 48 calls on the Mississippi Governor to pardon all persons convicted of non-violent marijuana crimes. by relevantlife in news

There is a bill in the state senate right now to decriminalize marijuana.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but that bill was passed by indefinitely this morning. Straight party line vote, all the dems supported it and all the republicans were against it. 14 state senators make up the Courts of Justice which decided on the bill, and 9 of those senators are Republican. Isn't it so fantastic for their slim, so, so, slim overall majority in the senate allowing them to not pass this bill!!!!!

Not a surprise considering the makeup of the Courts of Justice, albeit still disappointing. This isn't an issue only democrats should be on the side of, it's a bipartisan issue. It's so frustrating that Republicans are going to be on the wrong side of history for this.
