    Sad to see Connecticut follow NY’s path to degeneracy. This nonsensical legislation will come to absolutely no good.

    Politicians realize they could rip off the people in the state and make money off of them before that it was all say no to drugs now they talked about all the benefits of it. Better off to grow your own or buy it on the street from someone you know

    VOID OF JURISPRUDENCE!
    ILLUSORY GUN LAWS: Punish and permanently remove 2nd amendment gun rights for drinking/smoking pot & driving offenses! (CONTINUE READING!)
    Who is the injured party to question in court and who is the victim when all DUI offenses are pullover-and-blow arrests void of accident, incident, victim, or injured party?
    This black law clearly denies Jurisprudence!
    State law says 3 DUIs in a lifetime create a permanent non-reversible felony. These newly created (Mom & Dad) "non-violent" FELONS cannot ever hunt, protect themselves, their wealth, or their families! Eternal Felons/Eternal Slaves!!!Β (If a citizen has NO RIGHT to defend their life, there is NO RIGHT TO LIFE!)
    The ILLUSORY LAW has nexus by illusion with federal law and is based on imaginary death and destruction created by MADD!
    The felony law does not distinguish between "having a victim and injured party" vs "victimless" without any victim or injured party! (Simple pullover & blow arrests!)
    When DUIs are victimless & non-violent, without having any injured party or victim to confront in court, the severity of eternal punishment should never abolish the 2nd amendment gun right …
    IRONICALLY the law allows the DUI driver to keep the driving privilege while eternally removing the 2nd amendment right based on a BLOWING MACHINE. (Ironic)
    Current law clearly lacks distinction and jurisprudence between two distinct separate classes of offenses!
    THE ILLUSORY BLACK WALDO LAW INVENTS SLAVERY AND SERVITUDE OUT OF THIN AIR, WITHOUT REQUIRING A VICTIM!….

    All the Simpsons that that lady expressed that she is suffering from, it’s also symptoms of chronic cocaine use in early adulthood



  7. @Eagle00pr on July 22, 2024 at 7:29 pm

    The Leftits want people poor, dumb and now smoking weed to keep them drugged up so they continue voting for these leftists policies. Soon You will hear the cases of Marihuana contaminated with Fentanyl and killing young people… this is already happening in NYC.



  8. @TheDaddy. on July 22, 2024 at 7:30 pm

    They tax $0.06 on every like milligram of THC or percent of THC it’s f****** expensive You’re better off just going to Massachusetts



  9. @cboogienyc on July 22, 2024 at 7:34 pm

    Just go to rhode island people they are recreational and medical….and prices are way way cheaper and better quality



  10. @patoni860 on July 22, 2024 at 7:38 pm

    The enthusiasm from the people at this television station, states that they had already participated in it and they were just as scared of the government as anybody else. Which once again, proves that Trump was saying that you guys are fake news. Because you could have came out and said you were opposed to the laws of marijuana 10 years ago. But you didn’t have the guts



  11. @WeShallC on July 22, 2024 at 7:39 pm

    I’m glad more and more states are changing their laws…now on a Federal level 🀑

    Connecticut is this the Right Way, New York City screwed this up

    I’m going to start smoking all day everyday.



  15. @jontomas2271 on July 22, 2024 at 7:45 pm

    We’ve always had high potency marijuana. In the Sixties and Seventies, it was Acapulco Gold, Panama Red, hash and the famous magic brownies. — More potent marijuana is actually healthier because you smoke less of it to get the same effect.



  16. @Rain-or9yx on July 22, 2024 at 7:49 pm

    Oh we have some them in Carlisle pa there black and thieves

    In the early 1900s, major pharmaceutical companies created a bunch of lies so that they could benefit financially from it. They lied about the harmful effects of smoking cigarettes. The warning label on packs of cigarettes in the U.S. are physical evidence. The data published on the topics is also fake. Cigarettes, ethyl alcohol-containing beverages (such as beer, wine, etc.), and other β€œnon-pharmaceutical” drugs, including psilocybin mushrooms and cannabis, are not bad for you. In fact, it is bad for you not to use them, which is exactly why early pharmaceutical companies worked so hard toward preventing people in the United States from making the decision to drink ethyl alcohol-containing beverages, smoke cigarettes, smoke cannabis, and consume psilocybin mushrooms.

    Now, pharmaceutical companies have probably earned enough money from selling their drugs that they don’t have to work hard to prevent people from using the drugs that are known to treat their symptoms with no side effects. Plus, human beings in the U.S. have become more civilized.

    It doesn’t matter if a drug is, on paper or electronic format, grouped as β€œlegal” or β€œillegal.” All drugs are legal now. If someone doesn’t believe you, show them this message. Words on a paper do not change or effect the effects of a drug.

    Smoke cigarettes, drink ethyl alcohol-containing beverages, smoke cannabis, and consume caffeinated energy drinks such as Monster Energy on a daily basis. Use psilocybin as needed.

    Amen!

    β€”New β€œsurgeon general” of the United States. I don’t perform on TV like those other clowns.
