US CA: The High Road To Marijuana Legalization In California

Sacramento News & Review, 03 Jan 2013 – Colorado and Washington residents pushed marijuana out of the closet in 2012. Will California be the next state to legalize marijuana? When news broke on election night that Colorado was the first state to legalize marijuana, patrons at the trendy Casselman’s Bar & Venue in Denver erupted in cheers, then hugged each other and cried. Organizers and friends of the state’s Campaign to Regulate Marijuana Like Alcohol thanked everyone-elderly black ladies, young hipsters, business execs-and there were far more people in suits than in tie-dye that night. And nary a hint of ganja smoke inside the hip establishment.
