Okay? We need weed legalized.
didn't Trump quietly legalize it with the farm bill?
Most red States still have it banned
funny to call yourself "free" but you can't consume a certain plant
Agreed. So stupid weed is illegal while booze is free game
Well, definitely not federally, and not state side either. Ny "legalized" weed, but turns out they never did; the legalization is dependent on them ironing out the details, which they still haven't, which is how people are still being arrested for possesion in ny
Care to elaborate on this.
Checking on this I found

I don't care what people do, so long as their affairs are in order enough to not be on government dole. As long as my tax dollars aren't going to pay some lazy guy's bills so he can get stoned all day, I don't have any fucks to give. Smoke it up.
The other perspective is: would you prohibit elm trees? Why not? The real reason is: prohibiting taking advantage of what God has provided is the problem, not what God has provided.
See also: prohibition in the amendments. It never works, but caters to temporary political gain and destroys virtue.
Foxglove or Digitalus is a beautiful flower that can be purchased at any nursery but it's deadly if you ingest it. I wonder why it's not illegal. It's almost as if they don't care if something is bad for you, they care if it's bad for them. The first Marijuana law in America was ordering colonists to grow it, the constitution is written on hemp, show me paper today that will last hundreds of years. Hemp and marijuana threatened too many industries, it's the only reason they made it illegal. Who gives a shit if someone gets high on it, people sniff glue too and it's not illegal.
My opinion, legalizing cannabis takes it out of the hands of the drug dealers, I use it daily, I do not get "stoned", it's a matter of how much you do at one time, just like with alcohol, one glass of wine or a bottle? It has less health risks than alcohol, it does indeed have medical value, for mobility issues, adhd, inflammation, poor appetite, anxiety, insomnia, epilepsy, parkinsons, it helps alleviate pain and can allow those treated for pain to remain at their dose, instead of having to raise the dose over time. If you have property, and grow it for your own use, no one should tell you what kind of plant to grow or what to do with it. I have heard of drunken brawls but never heard of cannabis brawls. I live in a legal state, grow my own for years, I do not sell it, but, if I wanted to , I can go to a dispensary and buy some.
No. Smoking weed is not like drinking booze. When people drink, they get drunker, and drunker the more they drink until they pass out, or die. They also continue to get more intoxicated, as they drink.
Smoking weed is not anything like that. People cannot smoke so much that they pass out, or die. Nor do they continue to get more intoxicate with the quantity of weed smoked, because the body has a saturation limit- one can only get so high.
The term "smoke yourself straight" comes from people smoking so much hemp in one session that the intoxication effects wear off before a person is finished smoking all their weed.
TL;DR: A weed "buzz" has a plateau point, unlike booze.
All I know is that I roll one joint a day, and take a few hits through the day. If it is a day to goof off and watch movies, I will smoke more, and that will make me feel a bit more of the effect, not feel like doing much except to watch the movie and snack, if I take a couple of hits, I may feel a buzz, but the stiffness in my joints (body joints) is abated and my movements are better. I will be 74 and have used pot for a very long time. Not everyone drinks more after one glass of wine, and they can do so without being considered under the influence, especially if it is with dinner. A glass of sherry at night is a lot different than 12 beers in a day. And you can pass out from too much pot, have you not heard the term "greening out", or eat more than one brownie? There is such a thing as couch lock. Moderation is the key.
OP watched Reefer Madness and took it to heart.
I'm a trump voter and it repels me that Americans who claim to be patriots want to restrict anyone's rights. Illegal abortions have a solid foundation in humanity. But stopping the legal possession and use of Marijuana is stupid. You claim to want freedom yet you still want the government to regulate everything. I don't even use weed and I'm for it's free use and possession. Legalism is just a continuation of the law that Christ freed us from. How about taxes. We should have more of those too. Wake up. Freedom means freedom as long as it doesn't infringe on another's right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Your own freedom depends on your moderation to control others freedom. Again. Wake up. Also in terms of numbers 12 percent of trump voters is almost 30 million people. 50 percent of biden voters is maybe generously about 30 million. Wake up.
I don't think that marijuana should ever have been criminalized.
Neither do I give a damn about stoners or their habits.
I also don't think this is an issue of any real importance.
It is when you look at what thc is being used for; thc can replace many prescription drugs with pretty bad side effects.
It needs to be legal. My husband should not be in fear of punishment for staying OFF opioids and other pain meds while working for 25 years with a reconstructed and permanently stabilized spine that causes constant pain. If it weren't for weed, I shudder to think the road he'd have taken to deal with the pain. We all know the problems opioids have caused for far too many.
It's easier to con people when they're stoned.
And you'd have to be stoned to vote for that POS!
Even easier to con people when they're drunk, but no one is banning alcohol like last time.
Yes, some jurisdictions close liquor stores on election day.
I think it’s easier to red pill and awaken people when they’re stoned. It actually enables more free thinking in many people
And what. They are red pilled for a few hours till they sober up
i smoked so much weed i went from lefty atheist to maga christian.
i'll let you know if i revert when i sober up 😂
Mushrooms did that for me.
haha yes psilocybin also played a small but significant part in my journey
Total bullshit. Democrats always play the weed card to try to scare people away from voting republican, and RINO always play the bad cop who is gonna "take your weed away" to help their democrat allies.
Here is the source of this article:
The spin is: "If you enjoy the liberty of smoking, you can't be a Trumper." Democrat party propaganda, through and through.
Today's Weed is the selected "SOMA" as foretold in Huxley's "BRAVE NEW WORLD"
except it often makes people paranoid, and sometimes full blown conspiracy theorists. i dont remember that part in bnw
CMON MAN, you need to be on something to think Biden is real let alone OK. They are the 4 to 6 % Q talks about. Lost forever.
They are brainwashed by indoctrination. Seems weed makes it more difficult to brainwash someone hence the reason it's illegal.
It is called "dope" for a reason.
Just so you know, dope is heroin on the streets. Weed is weed. Former narc officer. Was once told only a dope wouldn't know that.
