    Deathsatan is going to say that Marijuana is too woke ๐Ÿ˜† ๐Ÿคฃ

    2:55 You can tell by her accent that she spent most of her life in a different state, probably just moved to Florida, and wants to dictate how Floridians love their lives… yep, definitely checks out.

    Legalizing marijuana was already on the ballot and I voted for it one year in Florida. People don’t understand that I don’t even smoke marijuana, but I know that it’s better than alcohol and drunks on the road because my husband did smoke marijuana before he passed and I never saw him out of control or stupid acting. It just took the edge off. Without the sloppiness of drinking and being drunk. So I voted for marijuana to be legalized that year and picked up the newspaper and it said that 77% of Floridians voted for legalization of marijuana. So what’s the big deal. You got it all wrong about marijuana if you’d legalized marijuana you see a whole lot more people off the streets and you didn’t create marijuana God did and he could have very well made it for medicinal purposes

    If bikes are going to share roads they should have to be tagged and licensed



  5. @edgemonsiteworksllc3369 on April 6, 2024 at 7:41 am

    Sure smoke all the dumb weed you want. Take over the roads on your bikes because itโ€™s illegal to drive impaired

    It’s not a war on drugs it’s a war on personal freedom. Wake up America



  7. @zenbooter on April 6, 2024 at 7:43 am

    Get real. Itโ€™s dope. Itโ€™s a vice. They lace it with bad stuff, and believe me it can be a nightmare and cause death. So go ahead, take your chances.



  8. @user-mh2gk1qx2w on April 6, 2024 at 7:45 am

    Smoking weed makes you stupid



  9. @HarryHov on April 6, 2024 at 7:45 am

    Good get out of the roadโ€ฆ cyclists suck you are the problemโ€ฆ..



  10. @robertgallagher7734 on April 6, 2024 at 7:46 am

    Live in Kaliunicornia- 1st it was medicinal marijuana, then it was legal for recreation. Now it is rampant in poor communities. It has become a gateway to the open use of many drugs with all the crime that comes with it. Bad idea. Florida, please do not repeat Cali’s mistake.



  11. @user-ig9xv8wd4g on April 6, 2024 at 7:46 am

    None of these reefer madness issues happened in Missouri just a billion more dollars to improve our state. Don’t buy any bs from anti weed weirdos, they are getting paid off by big pharma to say that.



  12. @Cindybin46user-nu4hg2dx6u on April 6, 2024 at 7:47 am

    Oh this makes me furious! I have ranted against pot for 20 years, typing my fingers to the bone! I have CLEARLY shown why it should be illegal. Just go read any of the thousands and thousands of comments the pot smokers have made to me. Go watch their many mean, horrible, ridiculous videos they’ve made about me. You should hear the phone calls they’ve left after doxing me. There is NO WAY we should ever want people like this walking around actually USING a mind-altering drug!



  13. @173COM on April 6, 2024 at 7:48 am

    ๐Ÿ›‘๐Ÿšง Excellent, that doctors smoke before surgeries, teachers smoke between classes, pilots smoke before flying, what an irresponsible and degraded society.๐Ÿ›‘๐Ÿšง

    Rest in peace to all the cyclists who have passed

  17. @jaysonnorris9199 on April 6, 2024 at 7:53 am

    its crazy the cyclists dont even use the bike lanes when available



  18. @edgemonsiteworksllc3369 on April 6, 2024 at 7:53 am

    Bicycles donโ€™t pay taxes for the roads those use.



  19. @randyscrafts8575 on April 6, 2024 at 7:54 am

    Been smokin pot for 40 years. It’s not addictive. I can quit any time.



  20. @silksnapper4777 on April 6, 2024 at 7:54 am

    RFK IS THE BEST CHOICE



  21. @andrewlake9228 on April 6, 2024 at 7:55 am

    What a thumbnail



  22. @AgonySoup on April 6, 2024 at 7:55 am

    Legalize AND let us grow our own.



  23. @hobosapiensxx on April 6, 2024 at 7:55 am

    Imagine being anti weed. Racist ass 1930s era fear mongering. Get with the times or be forgotten…

    People with problems smoke this disgusting skunk ๐Ÿฆจ



  25. @YourMomsFavoriteCommenter on April 6, 2024 at 7:57 am

    11:52 She’s saying that people are sending her death threats because she won the championship? She’s been harassed for winning? I’m confused here, I must be missing something.



  26. @thomasryan5681 on April 6, 2024 at 8:01 am

    So ban books but legalize pot and hand guns. Hmmm. Interesting ass backwards thinking but seeing who it’s coming from you can’t be surprised.



  27. @Debra-en4kr on April 6, 2024 at 8:03 am

    This is going to hurt the black market



  28. @youdontknowme08001 on April 6, 2024 at 8:04 am

    Itโ€™s already legal though, I went there and they were openly selling it in shops



  29. @rockhunter7066 on April 6, 2024 at 8:06 am

    Its really not rocket science.. Bicycles dont pay all the fees the motor vehicles do, so keep them off the road. Cannabis is far Less harmful to society than Alcohol.



  30. @garymoore9413 on April 6, 2024 at 8:08 am

    Those who doesn’t stop for stop signs , really piss me off .



  31. @mrfroghello on April 6, 2024 at 8:08 am

    Never gonna happen ๐Ÿ˜‚



  32. @tomrhodes1629 on April 6, 2024 at 8:08 am

    The biblical prophet Elijah has returned, as prophesied, and testifies. No joke, Florida – the state that consistently elects the most fascist, blasphemous politicians in this Country, who use GOD’s name in vain to support their satanic agenda…The rise of the anti-Christ is upon your shoulders. Reagan, Bush, Trump, DeSantis….the god of this world will swallow you whole, Florida. I would advise Trump supporters to sink their roots there and stay, while others leave before it’s too late….



  33. @Harleyboi on April 6, 2024 at 8:08 am

    Mfrs will drink and take all sorts of pills yet when someone lights up they turn into a fkn karen

  35. @eliyahudbenperetz1615 on April 6, 2024 at 8:10 am

    I vote NO on legal weed. Smoke it if u got it , pay up if u get caught.



  36. @somewhrntm on April 6, 2024 at 8:11 am

    I think bicycles should be on SIDEWALKS ONLY!



  37. @AK36677 on April 6, 2024 at 8:17 am

    Bike people are the absolute worst. ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฎ



  38. @liberalsrmentallyflawed3611 on April 6, 2024 at 8:19 am

    Never, make an addictive street drug legal. Marijuana, is more safe than chemical drugs. Still don’t need to be okayed for legal consumption.



  39. @gfg5622 on April 6, 2024 at 8:19 am

    Miami is expensive
    Overrated
    Fake instagram life



  40. @BlancaHolland-xx9ny on April 6, 2024 at 8:21 am

    Marijuana is the stepping stone to further drug addiction and heavier requirements for a higher level of want stimulation. As a home mother at a teen challenge and dealing with drug addicts: they will say their first step was marijuana: then the other issue is that there are some who react with vision and motor skills delay, if someone doesn’t get it is like having an alcoholic join the AA and giving him booze at the meeting before leaving the meeting driving home. Sorry Florida doesn’t need skid row like Oregon.



  41. @AC-re9ee on April 6, 2024 at 8:23 am

    How can the government ban a natural plants fruit, it is beyond comprehension ๐Ÿ˜‚



  42. @luchagain3424 on April 6, 2024 at 8:23 am

    Marijuana or THC comes in many forms and obviously used for a variety of reasons for a variety of illnesses. That being said, letโ€™s use a thumbnail showing a stereotype. Youโ€™re not biased CBS are you?



  43. @Mr-jj3gp on April 6, 2024 at 8:23 am

    Donโ€™t do it Florida! NYC already smelled like ๐Ÿ’ฉ before it was legalized think about how it smells now ๐Ÿคข๐Ÿคฎ canโ€™t be outside enjoying places now because all the junkies smoking like thereโ€™s no tomorrow.



  44. @Masterdebator881 on April 6, 2024 at 8:23 am

    Nobody needs permission to own or consume a plant. If you vote youโ€™re a slave by definition, so I guess your kind would need permission.



  45. @silentmajority8365 on April 6, 2024 at 8:24 am

    Every state with legal pot has seen an increase of robbery shooting DUIs and home invasion all pot related



  46. @Buy_YT_Views_927 on April 6, 2024 at 8:25 am

    man, the inspiration you give is amazing



  47. @anthonymcchristian7450 on April 6, 2024 at 8:26 am

    Or yโ€™all can just get it off the street and worry bout fentanyl in your kids weed. Thatโ€™s why it needs legal so it can be tested



  48. @l.l1280 on April 6, 2024 at 8:26 am

    Oh, give me a break, give the people their Marijuana already. They voted a few years ago, it passed, the state screwed them around. People are going to do it no matter if it’s legal or not now.



  49. @TheIMMORTALKAHNHD on April 6, 2024 at 8:28 am

    Lol Florida aint divided. Republicans are. See yall in Nov



  50. @SolarWarden613 on April 6, 2024 at 8:30 am

    People who don’t smoke always seem more confused and scared and sick
