Now Missouri is trying to legalize real weed and outlaw fake weed
By Peter Rugg in Follow That Story, News
Man, is this a great day for medical marijuana news or what?
Kate Meiners -- a Democratic state representative from right here in KC -- has introduced legislation that would allow physicians to prescribe medical marijuana to patients suffering from "debilitating medical conditions."
This is the second time this year she's tried to get a vote on medical marijuana. Meiners' last bill didn't even get a committee hearing. This time, there's a little more public support. A group of Missourians calling themselves Sensible Missouri say they have been diagnosed with conditions that could be made more bearable by some prescribed Northern Lights. Next Wednesday, they'll go to Jefferson City in an effort to earn legislative support.
According to Sensible Missouri's Facebook page, the group plans to meet with Meiners, the bill's co-sponsors and state senators. Anyone who'd like to join the cause can get contact Sensible Missouri for more information.
Along with pushes to legalize medicinal weed in both Kansas and Missouri, it appears both states are also simultaneously on the verge of criminalizing fake weed.
If we were Looney Toons characters, this would be the point when steam would be shooting out of our ears.
