Fuck yea and I'm not even in TX, but it's damn refreshing to see a politician admit what everyone else knows about marijuana and why it was prohibited/outlawed in the first place.

Fuck I hope those asshats at the Capital pull their heads out long enough to see what the people want. This is awesome and a great step in the right direction. I doubt it'll pass though.

What gets me is the person who introduced the bill is doing so because of fundamentalist religion. God made all plants therefore all plants should be legal.

A lot of people who vote Republican are actually Libertarian. Libertarians are the true party of personal freedoms. Many Libertarians believe all drugs should be legal as well as gay marriage. That the Government should stay out of our day to day lives. In the words of the Rock they should shut their mouths and know their role.

This is good. You need to fit your arguments for this into the ideological framework of the people you are trying to convince.

Which would explain why the same senator spoke out against marriage equality in Texas.

No politician is going to try to guarantee personal freedoms if its not favorable to him or her. Gay marriage can't make any more money for the republicans because if they all supported it, they would be voted out for people who still don't. I'm for gay marriage but I also get that to a politician who is republican, marijuana is a more sensible reform. It will also be easier to get more flexible republicans after pot is legal, as the status quo will be much more malleable. You can't fix all the problems at once, its not realistic. Nobody is going to JAIL for being gay married.

You can get away with "God made all plants".... they will bitch about "Adam and Eve not Adam and Steve" until they keel over and die. Or get a proper education.

That is a well-written letter. I wonder if each of us could write a similar letter voice our opinions on the issues of our time period.

What a great proposal. And by a Republican no less. If only they all felt like this, however such is not the the case. Witness the recent Repub. furor when the people of the District of Columbia voted to make weed legal. And in my own personal experience, last year I got into a protracted email argument with Ms. Diane Black (the Repub congressional representitive from my district). Needless to say, she was adamantly opposed to legalization of any kind.
