If Cali legalizes Marijuana, All i wanna know is..............

[schoolboy420]

i want to move to cali. like the one dude said, always something to do, just as i hoped. ive been living in a smaller town in indiana my whole life, great place to raise kids, the schools and everything help teach good morals and everything, but the place is just too boring, i could drive to a less boring town but its still boring, because ive done everything you can do here too many times. ill probably get sick of cali, i just want to move there make some new friends, i have friends from here moving there with me. atleast 10 people are bc of me. if they if they legalize i have a feeling if the other states dont follow, cali is gonna be a horrible place to live. every stoner in america is going to want to move there. I just keep picturing myself sitting on the beach side smoking a blunt with a few friends. sounds almost too good to be true. here we can sit by the side of a dirty lake or dirty pond that you wouldnt want to piss in and smoke a blunt, but thats just dumb. lol. so i stick to roadies and in my room.

but yeah, theres obviously gonna be downsides of being there. im probably going to move into a less populated area in cali for some cheaper rent hah. bring 3 for a 2 bedroom apartment. and he who takes couch pays less lol. i already called the room with the biggest closet hahaha. i reaally just cant wait. and ill probably do the continueous harvest method for lowryders that way i constantly have buds. that would complete my life dream hahaha. i just want to be able to smoke anytime i want bc ill always have it, without being completely broke all the time. student loans are gonna be nice for college and help on rent haha.

tho im a city guy, im finding peace lately on my weekend getaways to the good old cabin in NC, man i could live there forever.

ive been the city type person to, but we moved to an even smaller town for a year and our house was 2 miles from any other house, we lived in the middle of the woods and i loved it for the first month. Then you had to deal with the fact that either your a couch potatoe or you can walk around the woods for the millionth time. its nice kinda though. you can play music as loud as you want, do what you want and when you want without worrying about cops, bc there wasnt even one police officer in the whole town. if i wasnt so young then the whole woods wouldve been a nice harvest zone hahaha.

Weren't you afraid of ghosts out there in the woods all alone at night?

 

[GeoffTheMess]

i live in MA. we are decriminalized. i wont leave...i smoke weed in the car, in my house and thats all i need....legal enough...i have my state tattooed on my arm and it runs through my blood
its the best place in the world

LMAO, thanks for that hard laugh, but no, at night there i was scared of coyotes and wild boars lol. and boars arent even in indiana i dont think. idk, dont know much about animals around here.

 

[Alistair]

Coyotes are afraid of people. Even a pack of them. Boars might be a tad bit different, though.

I can tell you a true ghost story, if anyone's interested. You might not believe it, but I just might share it anyway.

im probably going to move into a less populated area in cali for some cheaper rent hah.

Good luck!

Virginia is just too beautiful for me to want to live anywhere else. I like my seasons.

California is WAAAAAAY too overpopulated, fix your own state first.

Don't come here, you will be greatly disappointed, this state used to be great, but the influx if idiots and the whole "nor-cal"/"so-cal" crap, gangs, various economic bubbles bursting, the housing crisis, Homies, Idiots, Bad drivers, Tweekers, Lazy hippies, Complaining democrats, hard headed ignorant conservatives, annoying activists, Overpriced EVERYTHING, overpopulated, traffic...did I mention traffic?

....

Then, aside from all the retards who have FLOCKED to califonia looking for opportunity, now we will see a second gold rush of people who THINK they can grow...

Aside from all that, the scenery is amazing. So many different microclimates, such HUGE industry and infostructure. Home to the number two and three largest cities in america. Beutiful COLD ocean, Snow, jungle, desert, everything.

Now if only we can "Thin out the heard" this place would once again be amazing...like when I was a kid...back in the early 80's....

 

[JBonez]

you try and fix georgia, it will be the last state to wake up, not to mention, ive only been here a year, friggin blows, they are so harsh on weed, if not cali, im going back to the largest indoor growing state where weed is a slap on the hand, but florida is still not legal. Why wouldnt i come to cali? I would be the type of person cali needs if its that bad, i have money, a job that i can do anywhere and i contribute to an economy in a time where i should be saving more, but thats the problem and another topic.

 

[The Effen Gee]

Go to canada, or hawaii if you have the money. Believe me, cali just 'aint what it used to be...trust me.

Anyone considering moving here knows what is viewed as California "culture", usually surfer-valley-girl-yuppy amalgams in socal and smelly-liberal-legalizeinfantporn types in norcal, but I've found there are communities here that reflect just about any idealogy.

I've lived in the counties of Santa Clara, San Fransisco, San Diego, San Joaquin and now Santa Cruz, and they are all practically habitats for different species of human.

San Joaquin was highly conservative, you could believe you were in the bible belt. And like the bible belt it's also swamped in Mexican gang on gang violence. I had the pleasure of living next door to three generations of said bangers. Police there are as overbearing as any of the worst I've seen. MMJ laws are laughed at. Being in the federal Eastern District court, with an anti MMJ crusader named Mcgregor Scott as US attorney, it sucks to be a grower whether within the guidlines or not.

Santa Cruz on the other hand seems to have no laws at all, both because it has some of the most relaxed growing regulations, and because a portion of the populace loves playing with knives(see hXXp://stabsantacruz.com/) and taking things that don't belong to them. We have no wattage or plant number restrictions(though highly encouraged to stay below 99 due to the feds), just limited to 100 square feet of canopy. Which seems awesome, and it is, and the parasites out there realized that too, so there's been a spate of home invasions in Santa Cruz, Watsonville and the surrounding mountains targeting growers, including one woman who was bound and her home ransacked by a group of thugs who had the wrong place. They found the right house and jacked their crop two hours later. So over here, less worry about LE, but a bit more about thieves, though maybe not really, as I'm writing this I'm thinking no doubt in San Jaoquin if my essay neighbors had found out I was growing it would have been gone that day.

San Francisco was...San Francisco. I liked it for six months. I wish everyone could live there for six months, then never have to go there again unless they have an awesome dinner reservation. The gay image is way overplayed in pop culture, unless its pride day or Halloween it just has crackheads peeing on the sidewalk and other sexual-orientation nuetral symbols of every urban center. My grocery store was the Safeway in the Castro and I was never assaulted by a musical theater press gang. Seriously, I love the city, I always will, and I'm really glad that I got a chance to live there just long enough to realize I want to love it from a short distance.

San Diego was beautiful, lovely scenery, wonderful weather, gorgeous people, never, ever been more bored in my life. I was actually more bored than I was in San Joaquin county, at least there you had anxiety to keep things interesting. San diego was just...well, not my thing, I'll leave it at that.

Santa Clara county is very diverse, in that there is someone here from everywhere. It's laid back, in a never boring, never exciting kind of way. I like it, some might not. The police are unusually understanding, I was usually let off with a warning when I was pulled over, and three times I was caught on the side of the road smoking in my car(I was a kid shut up) I was just told to stamp the weed into the pavement and let go without them even calling my parents. In San Joaquin, I imagine they would have put me through the wringer and I'd have become ineligable for the student loans I'm now cursing having to pay.

My parents live in the high Sierras in an area that's as right wing as any evangelical "red" state.

My niece lives in Manhatten Beach. See the first stereotype in the first sentence of this post. And down there people are very compassionate, because, like, you have to be sensitive to people who are, like, less fortunate and don't have ipods and red bull and, like, all the other staples of society.

So that's my assessment of California. Every area can be as different as another county, and they don't all speak the same language.

One last thing. Moving here for weed laws would be stupid, stay where you are and help get your laws changed.

You got that right bro. Finding "a house in the middle of nowhere" is getting tough these days. Seems people move from out of state to the bigger cities in Cali. Then, when they figured out what a HUGE mistake they made they move to the rural areas, like my town. I have lived here, off and on, for most of my life. We went from a 'one stoplight town' to having 18 stoplights in just 25 years. The influx from the Bay Area and Sac has been incredible in ruining the town I am from. And these are mostly displaced out of state refugees with a very few Cali natives that just got sick of it. I wheel. Alot. Used to be I could hit the local mountains and hardly see a soul all day. Now, it's 1/2 mile deep bumber-to-bumber show rigs in the middle of nowhere on a rough dirty road all waiting for their shot at one stupid little rock. Gotta go farther in now. A lot farther in just to get away from it. Used to be just trees here. Now it's trees, beer cans, styro coffee cups, toilet paper and city folk from various states. That's just a friggin crime. I'm up for a bit of herd thinning myself. And Canada is sounding real good...

Lived in Cali for 5 years in the late 70s. Good experience, but I am very happy to have left for good. Gas lines, too much coke, no snow for Christmas, oh and way, way too many idiots with no patience.

 

[The Effen Gee]

Idiot with no patience?

That's me!

Nvthis, Nailed it!

Lol...Show rigs...Tons of those in Ultra-Flat-Urban San Jose! Practical!

I hate even more the Nor Cal stickers deuches put on their $55k 14" lifted penis extensions.

Well, there's still to much coke from what I hear, and idiots with no patience are everywhere in this country
, but, uh....you mention gas lines? And that you lived here in the late seventies?

Has there has been a 30 year media blackout where ever you are now? There was a gas crisis in the late seventies. Hit California hard. Went away. I've had my license since '98 and have never been more than three cars deep.

Also, snow happens quite a lot, just not in the same places you see in postcards. My parents in Calaveras County have had over seven feet build up on their deck overnight some years.

Feel free to bash my state all you want, I do, I only responded to this because there are just so many possibilities when it comes to criticizing California that you may as well use good ones. Real ones. Here, I'll give you an example; In San Jose recently, there has been a court case followed closely by the papers of a family with solar panels suing a neighbor to chop down part of a tree that's blocking their panels for part of the day. It's the alt. energy activists vs. tree huggers deathmatch. Only in California. Want another? In Santa Cruz, a guy was in the paper for calling the cops after a guy he was trying to buy an eighth from took his cash and ran. Dude called the ****ing cops on a dealer ripping him off. Only in California.

If you hate the gothic lettered NorCal stickers on truck windows, steer clear of Stockton, where it's tatted on the back of some peoples necks...

No, I'm not ****ing kidding.
