Trauma-san:
Less government is better, we dont' need another proposition on the books.

Patriot Act.... give up your freedom for security... security of freedom that is.... so basically we're giving up our freedoms in order so they can protect the freedoms they just took from us.... We're sooo smart ::)
Emancipation Proclamation.... after the Confederate states seceded from the Union, Lincoln proclaimed all slaves in those states FREE...yet he allowed slavery in the border states so that he wouldn't lose their support... so how many slaves did this proclamation free? ZERO... BTW him eliminating slaves in the Confederacy would be like Bush raising taxes in Canada...

Yes, YOU were talking out of your ass. Proposition 54 prohibits the classificaton by race, and your DUMBASS says:
"i'll probably vote for it i guess, but it's a stupid proposition. all it's doing is asking for your race/ethinicity"
Just another example of where you talk about something you have no idea about. Please stop embarassing yourself, and from now on if you don't have a clue, just keep quiet.
Now that I proved you incorrect and proved that in fact you were talking out of your ass, prove to me that I have made an incorrect statement.
I have said that the Patriot Act takes away some of our freedoms, which everyone will agree with me it is doing. Even the people who initially voted in favor of it, now, after reading through it and understanding what it's actually intending, want to reverse their decision.
The Emancipation Proclamation of 1763 stated that slavery was prohibited in the seceded states, not in the Union border-states. Since the Confederacy had its own government, do you think they paid any attention to Lincoln's law? No slaves were freed in the Confederacy, and slavery continued in the border states. That means that technically ZERO slaves were freed.
Now sit down and realize that you've been schooled.

I love cali, but there are some WIERD laws out there...
can't smoke cigarettes but wants to legalize "medicinal" pot?
can't get a lap dance but has the biggest porn industry in the world?
what's next; can't buy alcohol but can drive with no speed limits?
As far as prop 54 goes, I don't know too much about it. Could somebody explain the pros/cons to it?

Seems very sensible to me.
Both Canada and Britain are funding medical marijuana. And both countries will soon provide it on their health services.
