Ohio Senate Republicans propose banning home grown marijuana and other changes to legal marijuana
pbs.org
Banning marijuana growing at home, increasing the substance’s tax rate and altering how those taxes get distributed are among vast changes Ohio Senate Republicans proposed Monday to a marijuana legalization measure approved by voters last month.
The changes emerged suddenly in committee just days before the new law is set to take effect, though their fate in the full Senate and the GOP-led House is still unclear.
The ballot measure, dubbed Issue 2, passed on the Nov. 7 election with 57 percent of the vote and it set to become law this Thursday, making Ohio the 24th state to legalize marijuana for adult recreational use. But as a citizen-initiated statute, the Legislature is free to make tweaks on it, of which they’re attempting plenty.

And they have the public so disenfranchised that the public'll just go "fucking politicians" and move on with their lives instead of grabbing the torch and pitchforks and showing these assholes what accountability for politicians used to look like in the old days. Perhaps show them why we don't play by those rules anymore and why they shouldn't inspire the public to continue playing by those old rules.
Note: I am euphemistically edging towards tar and feathering more so than anything else. Anything nonlethal but severe in nature and consequence, that sort of thing.
FYI, having boiling tar painted on someone's body resulted in death the vast majority of the time, either immediately or days/weeks later after excruiting pain.
It's just on TV it's portrayed as a funny thing that happens to scoundrels who are completely fine even immediately after it happened.
Ahhhh sheesh you definitely got me there.... In that case I'd like to revise my stance to be a bit safer and reduce it to just gluing the feathers to them using Elmer's or something safer than skin peeling tar :/
Something scary and mob actiony but that doesn't result in inevitable death.
Long ago, we decided that gathering to issue a formal redress of our grievances was an acceptable alternative to simply breaking down our ruler's front doors and beating them to death in front of their families. These Republicans really want to go back to those days.
This needs putting on billboards, I'm fed up of bringing this to people's attention. With a slight wording tweak, it's applicable to a worldwide audience too.
