Pro-Marijuana Supporters Turn Out In High Numbers

By a 3-to-1 margin, opponents outnumbered supporters of a bill Wednesday that would repeal Montana’s 2004 voter-passed law legalizing the use of medical marijuana in the state.
At issue before the House Human Services Committee was House Bill 161, by House Speaker Mike Milburn, R-Cascade.  The preliminary count of people signed up to speak showed 86 opponents and 28 supporters of the bill. The committee took no immediate action on the vote.

Supporters have finally figured out that they actually have to turn up and do something instead of just talk.  And when that happens, the majority view suddenly changes.  Sometimes for the better, sometimes not.  But I believe hungry states and the realization that the war on drugs has been milked for all it's worth will begin the inevitable progression towards medicinal marijuana, and eventually legalizing it altogether.
