Ellis D. Tripp writes "The California state assembly is considering a new bill aimed at reducing the incidence of Driving Under the Influence of Drugs (DUID). The proposed law would make it a criminal act to operate a motor vehicle with ANY detectable level of ANY Schedule I through IV drug in your bloodstream. Not only does this include many prescription drugs, but it would also include substances such as gamma-hydroxybutyrate (GHB), n,n-dimethyltryptamine (DMT), and testosterone, all of which are controlled substances, and also happen to occur naturally in the human body.
Whether an intentional attempt to create a law to be used selectively against anyone the cops want to arrest, or just an example of the gross ignorance of basic science among US legislators, laws like this are sure to be on the rise as prosecutors and police seek to retain power in the face of efforts to legalize marijuana and begin rolling back the abuses of the War on Drugs."

It will be beaten again. If our gov't passes this then it's a proven ruse for money and we will fight back with not guns but lawsuits CA state allows us, since they're so consumer-friendly.
We'll bankrupt the state with civil suits if this passes. This is a gregarious abuse of medical privilege by the gov't.
So don't worry. We're on the case (and I'm on the case with my unstoppable 50+ years ahead horticultural tech. If they want it, they kowtow to me.)
