A conservatively dressed courier drives a company-leased Smart Car to an apartment on a weekday afternoon. Erick Alvaro hands over a white paper bag to his 58-year-old customer, who inspects the bag to ensure that everything he ordered over the phone is there.

    • leglalize cannabis for medical purposes as well as recreational. Its an herb not a drug. god created it for man to use . the drug companies and nazi cops are the ones keeping it illegal.

    • This is a great article. As usual, the folks in California are leading the way. Legalized cannabis is a win/win situation no matter how you look at it.

      But what I like most is the way those folks have gone about it. They fought and voted in medical marijuana. But while the legal struggle continues for recreational use they're not even waiting for it. Rather, they took the bit in their mouth and just took off. As the article pointed out, now it's so common place it's hard to realize it's still illegal. Leave it to California. A brilliant strategy.

      They're not arguing the thing so much as they're demonstrating it. Putting the lie to all these dire predictions of what's going to happen with legalization. Demonstrating in green United States Dollars what a shot in the arm the revenues will be for the struggling state.

      And where is the bleary eyed populace that can't find their car keys? The same place it always was; in the minds of those that believed what the federal advertising campaigns were trying to convince them of. Well... it "just ain't so."

      GO CALIFORNIA !!!
