Marijuana Legalization Initiative Heads For California Ballot… Finally

Its about Freakin’ TIME!!!!

-The Adult Use of Marijuana Act would allow adults 21 years and older to possess up to one ounce of marijuana and grow up to six plants for non-medical use-

I’m of the opinion that the laws against marijuana are so rooted in deception and ignorance that  the word SINISTER is appropriate! Speaking as a rational, moderately well adjusted adult , it baffles me to know that anyone would still be clueless enough to leave the laws where they stand. As a basic freedom to its projected economic surges and job creation this is a common sense call for any rational thinking adult.

I pasted the article that sparked me on to this topic below…

Dig in and let me know your thoughts!

With an initiative to legalize marijuana in California heading to the November ballot, medical providers, health care experts and industry groups are sharply divided over the controversial measure.

It is already legal in California to use cannabis with a doctor’s prescription. The Adult Use of Marijuana Act would allow adults 21 years and older to possess up to one ounce of it and grow up to six plants for non-medical use. The initiative also would impose a 15 percent tax on recreational marijuana sales.

California would follow Colorado, Washington, Alaska and Oregon in allowing the recreational use of marijuana if the measure is approved. Proponents say they have collected well over the required number of signatures to qualify for the November ballot. State officials are verifying those signatures, and the measure could be approved for the ballot within the next two weeks.

The state’s Democratic Party endorsed the measure last week, but California’s doctors, hospitals and health advocates remain split over whether to legalize marijuana.

The California Medical Association, the influential doctors’ lobby group, now supports the initiative despite years of opposing marijuana legalization. The California Hospital Association opposes it.

 

The California Medical Association called the measure “comprehensive” and said that while it does not encourage the use of marijuana, controlling and regulating it is the most effective way to protect public health.

“The perception has changed,” said Donald Lyman, a retired physician and chair of the group’s Council on Science and Public Health. “We know it is not a useless substance; there are medical uses and it is time to look at the regulatory system.”

“Because it is a legitimate product, there should be a legitimate access point,” Lyman argued.

If it passes, the Adult Use of Marijuana Act is expected to bring in several hundred million dollars annually to state and local governments, according to the Legislative Analyst’s Office.

Kick Push Puff….. Grizzly Griptape x Chroncierge = Grizzly Glue

Yes !!!!!

We joined forces with Grizzly Griptape to create and cultivate a co-branded masterpiece we are calling THE GRIZZLY GLUE !

First off, you gotta try it! Freaking delicious……..

It’s TG Genetics take on a Gorilla Glue strain that they have been tweaking on for the last couple years.

Breakdown – [ Gorilla Glue #4 x Hollister Kush at a 56-64 Days Generative Cycle.  Glue like structure with a tighter nodal stack. Strong lateral branching and a diverse terpene profile dominated by gasoline and hints of citrus and earth cream ]

What I love about this project, beyond the exceptional strain, is it’s all about the synergy between the skate and cannabis industry! It’s a monstrous seed that was just planted here (pun intended)!!!

So this project is built for the SKATERS!!!!!! I skated as a young grom, never pro, but in to it hard thru some definitive years in my memory banks and I’m still consistently awed by the sport. (My partners all have there skate vault in their memory banks as well) … We all searched for Animal Chin. (Reference for us older skate heads)

Now we are beyond excited to dream up ways to mash the Grizzly and Chroncierge worlds together!!! Skate and Weed…..They fit so perfect.

Grizzly repping the highest quality in skate

Chroncierge repping the highest quality in weed

Cheers to the entire Grizzly Griptape world ! we are excited about the future……

Along with the release of The Grizzly Glue we dropped a limited collaboration t-shirt & hoodie that is available exclusively at Grizzly Flagship & online.

The Concierge of Cannabis

Let me start this at the most basic part of our beginning….at the foundation. Our Name. It’s simplicity captures the essence of our brand perfectly.

Chronic – Slang term for the highest quality marijuana

Concierge – a service professional that provides errand and information services for their members.

Chronic x Concierge = Chroncierge

We strive to live up to this title………

Its like when Stevie Wonder announced the name of his newest music project was “Songs in the Key of Life”  before recording it. It then took him 2 years to complete the task of living up to such an monumental title! (one of my all time fav records so its my go to reference)

My name is Jud Nester, I’m a lifelong musician and marijuana enthusiast / partner in the Chroncierge brand. I’m spearheading the effort to get our blog bubbling!

My goal is to make this blog our teams cyber hub to the world, where we will post up our daily doings/findings and thoughts in and about this incredibly astounding cannabis industry. I’m not the most tech savvy web guy but I’ll make sure to tie in all of our social network activity and events as well. I’ll promise to get up some good galleries of pics as soon as i can figure out how exactly I do that…hmmm… Beyond all that we’re gonna keep it raw and bloggy! Our team pledges to be completely and brutally honest as we pull back the curtain so all can see the methods behind our madness and we can express the passion in our projects!

Our team consists of some exceptionally interesting individuals that all have their own specialties and talents. The time I have spent with this squad has been fast paced, challenging, enlightening, frustrating, flourishing, fanatical, fantastical and, for lack of a better hyphenated word, mind-blowing !!! I look forward to sharing some sweet gems from inside what I believe to be a truly great cannabis brand that is being built to last for lifetimes.

California is where we reside but this industry is a global conversation with all kinds of new things popping up daily to explore……….. so lets go!

Follow The Hat

Cannabis has been ridiculously demonized in certain areas of the world so traveling and tree is tricky!

From the most openminded Californian Weedfest  to the most Forbidden smoke lounge in Japan, lets stay informed on where and when you can burn without concern.

The hat made it to Belize !!!  (Everywhere the hat goes the smoke follows)

Here is some info on the legal and logistical situation over there….

Laws and legal news about marijuana in Belize

Cannabis is illegal in Belize and so with any activities related to it. Presently, the laws make it illegal to carry weed in any amount. Anyone caught may be imprisoned for up to 3 years or may be imposed with a fine of up to 50,000 Belizean dollars. However, the government said that they are exploring the probability of decriminalizing the possession of marijuana in smaller quantities.

Marijuana is illegal in Belize city and other parts of the country but cops are usually tolerant to those found in possession of cannabis in smaller amounts. They don’t usually take action to Belizeans who are caught in possession of weed.

Where to buy weed and marijuana seeds in Belize

You can find weed in some villages in Belize city. Don’t be too reserved. You can just ask anyone there and it’s either they have marijuana sticks to sell or they can lead you to a place where you can purchase buds. Taxi drivers are also good sources of marijuana but sometimes, some of them may be hesitant to help you find weed because of fear in getting trouble with cops around.
