Is America now a liberal nation?
Across America in different states, the various ballots cast portrayed a picture of the nation as one moving towards a more liberal attitude. Colorado and Washington voted to legalize marijuana. Whilst Maryland and Maine voted in same-sex marriage, the first states to do so by popular vote. Also in Minnesota voters defeated a proposed constitutional amendment that would ban same-sex marriage in the state. In Florida voters rejected calls to stop publicly funded abortion.
The votes on same-sex marriage could affect cases currently making their way through the Supreme Court, and will encourage gay rights advocates who want Washington to legalize same-sex marriage nation wide.
Has the tide turned away from the traditional conservative views of a generation ago, and can America now be called a liberal nation?
Colorado, Washington legalize recreational marijuana use – Nov. 7, 2012
ET Email Print Voters have approved marijuana legalization in Washington and Colorado, where this smoker celebrated the “420” holiday in Denver earlier this year.
But its still illegal, according to the feds.
Voters in Washington and Colorado passed ballot initiatives Tuesday to legalize marijuana for recreational use, the biggest victory ever for the legalization movement.”The significance of these events cannot be understated,” said NORML, a pro-legalization organization, in a news release. “Tonight, for the first time in history, two states have legalized and regulated the adult use and sale of cannabis.”But in many ways, its just the beginning of the battle. Marijuana is still illegal in the eyes of the federal government, which overrules states rights.”The voters have spoken and we have to respect their will,” said Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper, in a statement. “This is a complicated process, but we intend to follow through. That said, federal law still says marijuana is an illegal drug ,so dont break out the Cheetos or goldfish too quickly.”

MEDICAL EXAMINER RULES OUT BATH SALTS IN MIAMI FACE-CHEWING ATTACK
Only Marijuana was detected in the system of the man shot while chewing Ronald Poppo’s face in Florida, so states the Miami-Dade County Medical Examiner. No other drugs were found, including bath salts.
The bizarre behavior has led to much speculation as to the cause.
A toxicology expert, Dr Bruce Goldberger, Professor and Director of Toxicology at the University of Florida said that marijuana by itself wasn’t likely to be the cause of the strange behavior demonstrated by Rudy Eugene.
The Medical Examiner’s office in Miami is well known for being thorough in its work according to Goldberger.
It’s not clear what led to the May 26 attack on Ronald Poppo, a 65-year-old homeless man who remains hospitalized. Eugene’s friends and family have said he was religious, not violent and that he didn’t drink or do drugs harder than marijuana. Yovonka Bryant said that she and Eugene would often, together, read the Bible and Quran.
The policeman who shot a naked Eugene to death stated, that he was growled at when he told him to stop. The cause remains unknown what led to the face chewing attack. Friends and family indicate Eugene was religious and not violent and that he was not inclined to do any other drugs other than marijuana.
