You can bet that Monsanto will be interested in developing GMO weed and shutting out small growers or forcing them to buy their seed, much like they have done to grain farmers.
Once legalized the small farmer will be a thing of the past unless people wake up and stop buying GMO products.

————————————
“Monsanto has not and is not working on GMO marijuana,” a public statement on their website says, dismissing the allegation as “Internet rumors.”

“careful what you ask for…”
If you think I asked for anything you have serious reading comprehension and cognitive difficulties.
And you responded with no answer at all.
Hemp for Victory and for the American economy.
There is nothing “Conservative” about keeping a useful plant the Founders revered out of the American Agriculture industry and the Free Market is there Fancy?

All this happening under a Democratic Administration.
McCain or Romney as Pres. not a chance.
Right wing Fascists love their corrupt monopolies and Prison industrial For Profit from the taxpayer business models based on jailing folks for use of a plant the Founders revered.
Right wing so called “Conservatives” really need to condemn this Fascist behavior.
