Why legalizing marijuana is stuck in legal limbo
Why legalizing marijuana is stuck in legal limbo
Congress passed the Controlled Substances Act in 1970. More than a quarter century later, a section of that law helped states to legalize marijuana.
You know a country is fucked when their people are trying to legalize drugs.
The goal of a functional society’s law must be toΒ minimize the number of incidents of intoxication from any substance. The sole purpose of recreational marijuana is to get high. Alcohol is consumed by many people who do not become "drunk" as a result. That is one crucial difference…
Legalize it for 21+ up
Regulate it
Tax it
So the Feds are being lazy and the States are rebelling and breaking the law. Since the Feds aren’t enforcing the law, it appears that States are trumping the Federal Gov. which isn’t necessarily true.
Just legalize it
a good video from CNN.
When black ppl smoked, it was illegal, now white ppl smoke, itβll b a legitimate business
I haven’t smoked marijuana and several years, and I challenge anyone that disagrees with marijuana..
Have them drink a fifth of Jack Daniels and me smoking a joint.. Let’s see who can maintain better.. You pick the marijuana also.. I have never been so high that I lost track of thought ..but I have been that drunk and not remember a thing
The other crucial difference pertains to the enforceability of laws. Drinking alcohol is so ingrained in so-called middle class "respectability", whether it should be or not, that Prohibition failed. Marijuana, on the other hand, remains a symbol of rebellion, outsider status and a "stoner" subculture. As such, laws against it, if severe enough, would work.
And that’s because you have so many people that are in high places that drink alcohol..
Get rid of the DEA. Problem solved. No more schedule I for cannabis sativa
Dude, fuck the bullshit. Weed, should be 100% legal. To the point, anybody can grow and smoke their own stuff. The 2 most dangerous things about being a pot head is, Getting ripped off by a drug dealer or getting pulled over on the way home from the weed man. Why the FUCK are we locking up people for smoking pot? Its because its more profitable to OUR GOVERNMENT that way. Its just a fucking game of monopoly and were the ones playing while they sit back, count money and make power moves. Keeping their people in power, their agendas in motion, funding propaganda to make us all give away our rights and freedom. More gun laws, More security, more police, more regulations. We do it to ourselves but it isn’t by our own design. This isnt OUR land its rented property and you play the game the way they say to play it or they’ll make your life REAL hard. Your not free, and WEED is a perfect SYMBOL of government LIES and MANIPULATION. It solidify the FACT they do not do what they do to benefit us. But to benefit the machine that they created for us to live inside. The system
Fuck Nixon
People who treat their bodies like amusement parks will one day regret that decision. A guy that I work with smoked pot a lot when he was younger and he has had horrible stomach issues for the past 20 years from it. The pot caused him to get Cannabinoid Hyperemesis Syndrome (CHS). More info can be read about it all over the internet, but hereβs a link to get u started:

The rich run this countryΒ better do what they say you fucking money loving Nazi motherfuckers.
Legal marijuana is poison !!! If they changed the percentages of TBT and the other ingredients then its going to harm people not help them. Why legalize something that’s going to make you sick later on in life. And they Black people criminals , yeah right !

Marijuana is legal , it’s a natural plant. Been growing it for years and even donated some to s cop and his son. Told him to grow it, but smoked it with his son minutes later
Weed = The Gay Marriage of 2018-2019
Proud to be Canadian today!!…..smoke..anyone….π
Why can’t the president just say whatever just smoke it. Or can society just not care about the law like jaywalking.
Earth thoughts:what is it breath or have to self?
Public enemy #1 in 1970 was Richard Nixon.

This is encouraging drug usage Cartels or not! Do you want your child exposed to this? Weren’t cigarettes bad enough with 1st, 2nd & 3rd hand smoke & now this? I can see medicinal but not this to solve a financial crisis using the excuse of Cartels. Will this be treated as cigarette smoking only to be done outside? How about in rental units, etc., where there can be trespass to another persons unit when that person has emphysema &/or asthma &/or COPD &/or chemical sensitivities/allergies? It appears that revenue is coming before logic, common sense & health! @t
I’m a skitzophrenic because of marawana why arnt people with mental illnesses opinions respected on this topic were evidence it should always be illegal because it can potentially harm your own kids
Those who claim that drug prohibition inevitably fails, by the way, have obviously never read about Southeast Asia.
Why do you call it marijuana?Β Because you are uneducated…..
Legalize
Iβve smoked a blunt with that vato in south Texas . Where itβs illlegal as fuck .
So weed is not legal everywhere but in our NATIONS CAPITAL it is legal where the fucking White House is but not everywhere. America is a joke bro and thatβs why other countries laugh at us
Yup it’s official.
I am a controlled substance. I’m not sure how much of me I’m allowed to poses ππππππ

legalize it and fucking put a tax on it!! win win for everyone.
The Governemnts task is to ensure and protect the LIBERTY of the people, now where in the hell does it get off, inslaving us over THE MOST HEALING PLANT IN THE WORLD? TRAITORS
Cannabis prohibition is the largest crime against humanity! Cannabis saves lives! Has for thousands of years! If the scumbag pharmaceutical companies could patent it it would have been legal years and years ago! Corrupt politicians is why cannabis is illegal!
I have stomach issues and cant eat on my own I am now 48 hours without food because states that are not legal I cannot just go to the store and get my medication I am forced to go somewhere shady or shell out $500+ to the pharmacy for the medication I need. The people have spoken it is time to legalize it just like so many other states have. Cigarettes kill somewhere around 480000 people a year alcohol kills around 88000 people a year. Pot has no recorded reason for killing ANYONE. So to all the families that have lost someone due to one of those reasons they should have a right to take legal action against the state for EVERY death.
Fuck Nixon
Do something ether way dam
Weed is illegal because the government doesnt like its potential, that is it. Weed has been and always will be prevalent in society. Everyone either smokes or has a friend that smokes. I’d go as far to say that if you dont know 1 person who smokes, you’re either naive or sheltered af. I fail to believe that all these suited up dudes can come together and discuss marijuana and walk away still thinking it’s a danger to America. It’s not, we know it’s not and they know it’s not. Big pharma and the alcohol industry are certainly a large proponent to keeping it illegal. Its gotta be, you’re telling me the government will let doctors prescribe addictive medicines like percocet and adderall that can be abused and get you dozens times higher than you can get with weed but still write weed off as a dangerous drug with no medicinal value? Whack.
That Business makes $150.000 a Month no wonder those who sell it in legalized States get Robbed it’s easy Money for Criminals it’s funny them Places have Guard Dogs who ever is gonna Rob the place just shoot the Dog.
Waiting Fa These Old Heads To Die Already Like They Stuck In There Time
It is really absurd to see that marijuana is illegal and alcohol is legal when alcohol does harm to the body and Marijuana has medical benefits. Stupid???
Decriminalize is the way to go
Related to the point about marijuana "outsider" subculture is the fact that, as a symbol of rebellion and a "rite of passage" into rebelling against your parents is that it invariably leads to harder drugs, while alcohol, which is just "there" almost everywhere does not cater to the dealers who will offer "quicker" ways to get high. Case closed, pot defeated.
It never killed anyone
I think its really stupid to illegal weed. There will be less drug dealers and crime instead they want people to create crime to have their prison system rate more up for money smfh so basically they just want money instead of less trouble like why is cigarettes illegal it kills aton of people even though marihuana would be safe if they legalize it if they do hope they dont put gasoline and other shit like they did on cigarettes. And Β believe at the very leastΒ medicalcannabis will be legalized between 2020β2024 when a Democrat wins the 2020 election. Why? 80% the opposite party wins the election so naturally a democrat will probably win. Also, it is the popular opinion of Americans to legalize it in some form. Therefore, it most likely will be a political platform of the democratic nominee.
I still donβt think they should legalize it, thatβs just very stupid. It would just cause problems… And itβs sad that candidates take the advantage to say stuff about legalizing marijuana just to probably get votes… SMH π€¦π½ββοΈ
If they completely legalize it in every state they could just tax it & regulated like they do alcohol and make high dollars if done correctly but our government is retarded ran by idiots who donβt know a thing about modern commerce.
Lets talk specifically weed
Bonjour, we can also spray the Cannabis legal (flowers, wax, hash, crystals)
