Our audaciously arrogant governor, in orchestrating the previous legal challenge to the clear will of the people on cannabis, has made her position perfectly clear. How dare the citizens of the state not respect her wishes. If you haven't noticed, it's all about Kristi. Even her constant fumbles and stumbles can't deter her from her shameless self-promotion to get what she wants. Although thoroughly embarrassed and disgraced, Noem crawls on like a shameless cockroach instead of serving her state by resigning. Damn the NRA for not taking her off our hands.
Wonderful. Another opportunity to vote against this truly stupid idea.
There is demonstrated higher rates of psychosis in young people who use pot. It's a stupid idea, and there is no test available for intoxication which operating an automobile.
There is …. It’s called a sobriety test….. works just fine for pharmaceutical drugs…. Or are you saying you can’t get a dui currently from cannabis or any pharmaceutical? Because you can - you fail a sobriety test and they use what’s in your system as evidence.
"Many of legal restrictions regarding marijuana use and possession have been relaxed in California and as a result there has been an increase in the number of DUI cases involving marijuana use. Under California Vehicle Code Section 23152(f) VC, driving under the influence of marijuana and other drugs, both legal and illegal, is a criminal offense. Unlike DUI alcohol cases in which a driver can be convicted of DUI if their BAC if 0.08 percent or higher, there is no similar “per se” statute regarding marijuana and drug intoxication. This means that the police and prosecutor must actually prove that the driver was under the influence of marijuana and not merely rely on the results of chemical testing."
There is no test which can assess THC levels in reference to a standard level which defines intoxication. So, you are wrong.
Because there ain’t a chemical level doesn’t prevent a field sobriety test to be administered, and evidence collected if the sobriety test has failed….. Alaska has been doing it for decades.
Or are you suggesting police and prosecutors shouldn’t have to actually prove the person is a danger to drive? Because that’s what there jobs should be….. proving someone broke the law. .08 isn’t a medical number of intoxication, it’s a number picked by politicians.
First marijuana has been engineered since the early 80s to enhance THC. The level of THC is 400% greater now than the typical marijuana from a Cheech and Chong movie.
There is absolutely no means of on the spot testing for driver impairment. No means to test that is similar to an alcohol test.
The psychoactive compounds in today's plants are so potent that a current user could suffer the same affects as the woman who stabbed her boyfriend 108 times, stabbed herself and had to be tazed by police.
Would be nice if all our state’s talk of freedom wasn’t an ironic joke for once.

Do you have a source for that?
