What you can and cannot do as a Rec Weed consumeer 2017-2017
In 2016, the people of California spoke, overwhelmingly in favor for the legalization of recreational marijuana. According of the consensus of about 20 independent polls, citizens in favor outnumbered those against by a margin of 2:1. These findings conflict with the stance of the Federal Government, who pay, but only lip service to the constitution, which reads that the government is from, of and for the people.
"Clearly the Federal Government complies to other interests, not the people."
Contrast this reality with the parallel universe reality of the Federal Administration. Though it is obvious that Trump has yet to gain control of the rogue FDA and DEA, his own man, (apparently), Jeff Sessions say's he's going to renew the completely and utterly failed war on drugs, and that enforcement of federal marijuana laws was part of his mandate.
Congress is in a holding pattern and it appears to be increasingly comfortable with states adopting their own marijuana policies, Unfortunately, spending prohibitions like these expire at the end of this fiscal year, so there is still a need for a long-term solution.... source AP, May, 2017.This flies in the face of Trump's election promises, and is unconstitutional in several ways, first and foremost is the fact that Americans want marijuana legal. And secondly, marijuana and hemp are the under the jurisdiction of the individual states.
RECREATIONAL MARIJUANA - THE DO'S AND DON'TS UNDER THE NEW LAWS
Recreational use of marijuana is legal under Proposition 64 since November, 2016.
Adults over the age of 21 are allowed to:
Possess, transport, process, purchase, obtain, or give away, without compensation whatsoever, no more than 1 ounce of dry marijuana or 8 g concentrated marijuana to adults 21+
Possess, plant, cultivate, harvest, dry, or process not more than 6 live plants and the produce of those plants in a private residence, in a locked area not seen from normal view, in compliance with all local ordinances
Smoke or ingest marijuana
Possess, transport, purchase, obtain, use, manufacture, or give away marijuana paraphernalia to peoples the age of 21 or older
Possess, ingest or smoke within 1,000 ft of day care, school, youth center while children are present (except within a private residence without children present in the room)
Manufacture concentrated marijuana using volatile solvents without a license
Possess an open container or marijuana paraphernalia while in the driver and / or passenger seat of a transport vehicle
Smoke or ingest marijuana while operating a transport vehicle
Smoke or ingest marijuana while riding in the passenger seat or vehicle compartment
Legal sales for non-medical marijuana won't be allowed until January 1, 2018, when new regulations on retail market by the state's Bureau of Medical marijuana Regulation - Bureau of Marijuana Control, come into effect.
Proposition 64 does not affect, amend, or restrict the statutes provided for medical marijuana in California under Proposition 215.
Californians voted 2:1 for full on marijuana legalization, which is consistent with the consensus opinion of polls across the country. Any act by the Federal Government to suppress the will of the people is an act of tyranny, a violation of the constitution.

WASHINGTON, D.C. - The Justice Department will continue to be prohibited from interfering in state medical marijuana laws under the federal spending bill passed Thursday in the Senate. The bill has already passed the House, and President Trump has said he will sign it.
The legislation includes a provision that is intended to prevent the department, including the Drug Enforcement Administration, from using funds to arrest or prosecute patients, caregivers, and businesses that are acting in compliance with state medical marijuana laws.
“Congress appears to be growing increasingly comfortable with states adopting their own marijuana policies,” said Robert Capecchi, director of federal policies for the Marijuana Policy Project. “Unfortunately, spending prohibitions like these expire at the end of the fiscal year, so there is still a need for a long-term solution.
