Of course gov failing and her ready cronies might think they know what’s best for the will of the people. Fawk that can’t!

Don't worry, next legislative session our elected officials will be creating bills to get rid of it because we 'didn't know what we voted for.'

Isn't that what happened with the decriminalization stuff the voters passed last year?

Yes. 780 / 781 they tried to change due to that. If I remember correctly, it ended up dying in committee or on the floor.

Are you talking about the industrial hemp legislation?

Says Mary Fail-in:

It is our responsibility as state leaders to look out for the health and safety of Oklahoma citizens. As I mentioned in previous public comments, I believe, as well as many Oklahomans, this new law is written so loosely that it opens the door for basically recreational marijuana.

In other words, "we know what's best for you, and any chance of this going recreational is dangerous to you and your fellow Oklahomans." So what if it "opens the door" to recreational? "We respect the will of the voters, but we don't think you should really get what you voted for." I get so sick of our "betters" letting us know how "free" we are - with their permissions, of course.

But...but...but she's the Governor!

The state is suppose to start building the framework for regulations in a special session soon. And with the all the support behind 788, tampering with it would be political suicide.

Right now I wish I had about 10 acres. I would apply for a growers license. Remember, its called a weed because it can grow anywhere. Thankfully we live in a state where I can be armed to protect my crops

I looked out in the streets last night..... it wasn't quite the pandemonium the "no" crowd relayed. Weird.
