tribes, so long as they follow the same deal as the states (keep it away from children and federal property) won't be prosecuted if they grow marijuana. this potentially allows for marijuana to be sold in most states west of the mississipi, plus wisconsin, florida, mississippi, and a couple of states in new england. the casino ain't too far from me, it's already a bastion of freedom: not only can you gamble but you can SMOKE..... INSIDE!!!! but now, this is great news. plus it's not taxed.

on the flip side of course, native american reservations have long had a lot of trouble with drugs and alcohol. their alcoholism rates far higher than the rest of the population and 12% of deaths are alcohol related (the US as a whole, including natives, is 1.6%). so they may not even want it

Weed is now legal in DC. Finally, a REAL joint session of Congre$$ could happen!!!

Just think, in DC. they can ring in the new year with a bong instead of a bottle. Business for the bondsman of the drunks could be down.
