Nervous Guy Posted May 7, 2008 Posted May 7, 2008 ATLANTA -- Georgia retailers soon will be banned from selling candy flavored to taste like marijuana to children. Georgia Governor Sonny Perdue signed a measure into law Wednesday that bans the sale of "marijuana flavored products" to minors -- anyone under 18 -- and calls for a fine of up to $500 for each offense. The measure takes effect July 1st. It targets businesses that sell the candies with drug-inspired names such as "Kronic Kandy" and "Pot Suckers." The law says the candies promote drug use. Senator Doug Stoner pushed the bill in the senate. "I don't think that folks are aware this is going on," Stoner told Channel 2 in April. "It's mainly, from what I can tell, particularly targeted to minority communities." Who comes up with this stuff?

stuckincincy Posted May 7, 2008 Posted May 7, 2008 Who comes up with this stuff? Legislators all around the nation who want to pad their accomplishments so they get re-elected and continue their gravy train. They depend on the general idiocy and ignorance of the electorate, so they know it's a sure thing.
