"Illinois marijuana dispensaries sold more than $10.8 million worth of recreational weed in the first five days of sales. Now, some have halted recreational sales amid product shortages."

*Taxes on weed in San Diego went from 30% to 50% on Jan. 1st. Sales are down here...gee, I wonder if the state and city will realize why.

He Would Rather Be Homeless in California Than Live in Alabama

"I can say without a shadow of a doubt I’d rather live here in California, where the air is cleaner, the weather is warmer, and I can get real Mexican food than in any shit hole red state,” Rigglesby said. “I used to be a stock broker and day trader. When the economy took a dump in in 2007, I freefalled financially for a time, and eventually wound up on the streets. But before then, I tried reducing my cost of living by moving from New York to Alabama. Worst mistake of my life.”

"That state sucks. The politics are so hard right that there are no services whatsoever, and the people are dumb as shit because they don’t fund their schools well enough. You know, on account of taxes being theft or whatever,” Herb said. “I’m even a pretty fiscally conservative guy, but even I have a limit of how much inbred stupidity I’m willing to subject myself to.”

2020 WOMEN'S MARCH Jan. 18th

Mark your calendars, the 4th Women's March has been planned around the US and the world. The original leaders and agenda are back (no more personal political agendas, those people are gone). The theme is Women Rising. Check the link often for a "sister march" near you. Some marches have not been posted on the map but are happening none the less (like the San Diego one I signed up for a few months ago). Check Fakebook for your own home town too.

Spread the word and bring some friends! RESISTANCE IS PATRIOTIC!
