    Not much of anything, if it causes marijuana to be legalized. My parents and grandparents don't remember the sky falling when Oklahoma legalized alcohol in 1959.

    This is about Pruitt being butthurt about continually being slapped upside the head with the Supremacy Clause in his lawsuits against the federal demons. He pursed his persnickety lips, threw and tantrum and sued Colorado because they're a cool progressive state flouting federal law. Ok sucks.

    I've signed it and it's gone over 16,000 signatures.

    The petition ends with, "Marijuana is objectively less harmful than alcohol to the consumer and to society, and it’s time to start treating it that way." So true, but odd how Pruitt says he is not against legal possession of marijuana in Colorado, but opposes legal sales of it." Legal and regulated sales of marijuana would make things safer by banning sales on site of all the more harmful illegal drugs, like heroin. So I imagine the underground drug pushers in Colorado are cheering on Pruitt and hope he wins. They surely want all their rec marijuana market back.

    Pruitt supposedly knows a lot about the constitution, so I reckon he thinks he's smart enough to use that knowledge to try to enforce his conservative ideology on Oklahoma and the rest of the nation where he sees fit. So he has a Federalism Unit, aimed at revitalizing federalism as a system of “vertical checks and balances.” : http://www.ok.gov/oag/About_the_Offi...eral_Unit.html

    No, Pruitt seems to equate lack of public interest and lack of money to get medical marijuana on the ballot the same thing as voting NO on a ballot.
