South Dakota Supreme Court overturns marijuana legalization amendment

A growing number of states have moved to legalize cannabis for recreational usage. Yet, in a surprise move, South Dakota’s Supreme Court recently opted to buck the trend.

  1. As if things weren't bad enough without legalizing Marijuana. I can't imagine that anyone gets turned down for a prescription for medical Marijuana. This is really about the people who have been waiting for legalization to realize the profits from their investment in a nascent field of opportunity.

    I say they should all go to hell, and do something else to make an honest living.

    There is no question that it is a gateway drug. 100 thousand dead from overdoses isn't enough for them.
