Oklahoma (!) just voted to legalize medical marijuana

https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2018/6/26/17506548/oklahoma-medical-marijuana-legalization-question-788

"Oklahoma State Question 788 allows individuals 18 and older to obtain a medical marijuana license with a board-certified physician’s signature. [...] The measure is also relatively unique in that it doesn’t tie medical marijuana to any specific qualifying conditions, which will likely make it easier, compared to other states, to obtain pot for medicinal uses."

SCOTUS has ruled that the California FACT act - requiring fraudulent anti-abortion "crisis pregnancy centers" to disclose that they weren't licensed medical professionals - is unconstitutional because it's "forced speech" and violates the first amendment.

I 100% guarantee that within a year we'll see tobacco companies using this case to argue that the surgeon general's warning on cigarette packs isn't legal either.

"When somebody comes in, we must immediately, with no Judges or Court Cases, bring them back from where they came. Our system is a mockery to good immigration policy and Law and Order."

--Donald Trump

Dude, having "no Judges or Court Cases" isn't "Law and Order." It's the opposite of that.

Communities NEED caretakers.

As shown with Twitter, neglect is not benign.

"For the good stuff to grow, you have to deal with the bad stuff." Analogy to a garden.

LOL, someone on Quora asked 'why hasn't the UK adopted America's healthcare system'

This was a recommended strategy in 1934. I wonder if there's a way to find out if it worked?
