Marijuana Laws Might Change On Monday

California Might Change Some Marijuana Laws On Monday

Since the State of California decided to vote in favor of Proposition 215 back in 1996 and accepted the use of medical marijuana, there have been many problems trying to establish certain rules and rights for those who are using the herb and those who are either growing it and providing it to dispensaries or other people. There are still many changes to be made to the current marijuana laws in California and the world, as there are still many gaps in the system and this is not allowing us to regulate cannabis as it should.

Thankfully, the California Supreme Court exists and they are going to try and get this mess solved this Monday. It will be on May 6, at around 10 A.M when the Supreme Court in this State, will decide whether the local government have the authority to ban medical marijuana dispensaries by using zoning ordinances. 

This problem was caused by some lower courts, like the Fourth District Court of Appeal and the Division Two in Riverside, who voted on accepting those types of bans in their districts, but there are also others like Orange County, that have ruled against it and this is why the matter needs to be taken to the Supreme Court.

What Changes Can Happen To These Marijuana Laws?

While most people might think that this is a very simple matter and that the Supreme Court can only rule on accepting marijuana or not, there are actually many things that California's Supreme Court can rule on and this is why we will certainly be paying attention to what happens on Monday and how the current marijuana laws will be changed. 

If the court decides not to approve the new laws, there is an estimate of round 200 local governments not being able to establish the bans that they so desire, as they will be unconstitutional to the State of California. and they will be able to regulate medical marijuana dispensaries just as any other business, but they would not be able to establish them. 

If the court decides to approve some of the new laws, some of the bans will still remain effective and those who live in certain areas of the State and consume or grow this herb, would have to either move or find some non-profit collectives to get their pot from. 

There is also the option for the court to decide passing this problem to Legislature and letting them decide if cities and counties should be able to ban medical marijuana dispensaries and growers in their zones or areas. On Monday, California's Supreme Court will also be deciding on who has the right to challenge these types of ordinances and  this should also help the legalization of cannabis, if the laws are changed in our favor. 

Monday Will Be An Important Day For Marijuana Laws In California And The World

The decision that will take place this Monday will certain be an important one, as it could affect medicinal cannabis users, it could affect medical marijuana dispensaries, it could affect medical marijuana growers and collectives as well. 

Hopefully the Supreme Court makes the right decision in favor of marijuana this Monday and we can continue with path towards legalization around the world.

A New Proposal For Medicinal Cannabis

Cordoba Wants To Legalize Medicinal Cannabis

It will be on May 4^th, when the city of Cordoba in Argentina, will host the Global Marijuana March and it is surely going to help our cause, as a new proposal for medicinal cannabis will be presented and there are many who believe that it will finally be accepted now.

It will be today, when the Cordoba Cannabis Community presents their proposal to the government and there are going to be more activist organizations involved in this presentation as well.  The proposal is also being presented by Mako Escalzo, who is a member of the Cordoba Cannabis Community and has been using marijuana for medicinal purposes for a while now, as he was diagnosed with AIDS and it has been the only medicine that has helped him to stay alive.

According to Mako, he has been using cannabis for around two years now and it has definitely made a difference in his life. He has testified several times, about how pharmaceuticals would only worsen his health and how his life started to change, right after he started consuming cannabis, as it helps to ease his pain, it helps him to eat more and makes him more relaxed as well.

The New Medicinal Cannabis Proposal

The new proposal for legalizing cannabis for medicinal purposes in Cordoba will have two main objectives and these include getting the proposal approved and making it extensive, as they want medicinal cannabis to be accepted in all of Argentina and not only in Cordoba or for a few people.  The other objective is to change the current laws about cannabis, as people are currently being arrested for growing their own marijuana plants and this is something that people should have a right to do.

The Global Cannabis March will take place tomorrow and the Cordoba Cannabis Community will be gathering at the Independence Plaza at around two o’clock. There will be live music, lots of entertainment and lots of people who support the legalization of cannabis around the world. The march will then move to Las Heras Park, where they will continue promoting this new proposal and the legalization of marijuana too.

It Is Time For Medicinal Cannabis To Become Legal

Just like it has been legalized in several States of the US and other countries of the world, cannabis should also be legalized in Cordoba and in the rest of the world as well. There is much proof about the benefits of this herb and there are no reasons why people should not be allowed to alleviate their pain with it.

Medicinal cannabis is much better than many pharmaceuticals out there and there are many who are now enjoying their new life, thank to this herb.  We need to keep pushing, in order for authorities to abolish the current prohibition on marijuana and to change our world for good.
