Washington Mayors Want Slice of Pot Revenue

-




WASHINGTON STATE—One-hundred Washington-State mayors are urging their state lawmakers to share recreational cannabis revenues to pay for local law enforcement and other costs related to legalizing pot. Washington voters, like those in Colorado, recently approved recreational marijuana. Alaska is looking at a similar measure. In a letter to Washington Gov. Jay Inslee and legislative leaders, the mayors wrote that cities will be responsible for enforcing the new pot law. Therefore, they told Inslee they feel they deserve part of the $190 million in new tax revenues the state expects to collect over the next four years. The mayors, who did not specify an amount, say they need their fair share to carry out duties. Those duties include overseeing permitting and policing what they called "drugged driving." http://bit.ly/OEmrcX Download your free Next News "Heroes & Villains" Poster here: http://bit.ly/KgbQD5 Donate USD: http://nnn.is/donate-dollars Donate BTC: http://nnn.is/donate-bitcoin LIVE: http://bit.ly/1eChpVo Facebook: http://on.fb.me/18RdIek Twitter: http://bit.ly/1eChqZD Sub: http://NNN.is/the_new_media Meet the Next News Team: http://bit.ly/18RdIen Hashtag: #N3 About: Next News Network's WHDT World News program airs daily at 6pm and 11pm Eastern on Comcast, DirecTV and Over-the-Air and Online at http://NNN.is/on-WHDT WHDT World News is available to 6 million viewers from South Beach to Sebastian, Florida and to 2 million viewers in Boston, Massachusetts via WHDN.

Muslim Group to Charlie Hebdo: Don't Publish New Issue

-
An influential Muslim institution in Egypt has warned the French satirical magazine that was attacked by Islamist militants last week against publishing its new issue, which features a cartoon of the Prophet Muhammad on its cover. Egypt's official Religious Edict Authority, known as Dar El Ifta, said the magazine, Charlie Hebdo, is unnecessarily provoking the feelings of 1.5 billion Muslims worldwide who love and respect the Prophet. Charlie Hebdo's new issue, which was sent to the presses Monday night, features on its cover a cartoon of a bug-eyed Prophet Muhammad shedding a tear and holding a sign that says Je Suis Charlie, the now-popular phrase of solidarity with the magazine. http://nbcnews.to/1DVm8yb http://bit.ly/1fJ5yqZ

FUKUSHIMA ..The Worst Lie That Has Ever Been Committed Against The Human Race!

OH NO!, THEY SAY! DON'T LET THE PEOPLE KNOW ABOUT THIS, BECAUSE THEN WE WOULD HAVE PROBLEMS... PROBLEMS, they say? The-Powers-That-Be are a group of sociopaths that cannot see beyond their own noses of greed, and in their haste to gather all of the world's monetary value and control, they have brought this on, with NO IDEA ON HOW TO CONTROL OR STOP IT! THEY HAVE OPENED THE PROVERBIAL PANDORA'S BOX AND NOW DON'T KNOW HOW TO CONTAIN OR STOP THE APOCALYPSE THEY HAVE CREATED. So what do we do now? I don't know, and even the world's nuclear scientists don't know. What should have been done was not, and that would have been to take over Japan when this first occured, and employ every nuclear scientist together into a think-tank, to attempt to solve it. At this point in time, if the UN did this now, it would be like trying to close the barn door AFTER the livestock has already escaped. It's too late!!! They would have us believe that the vastness of our oceans...
