All good arguments for taking opiods. Good for you.If a steak can harm a six month old baby, should I be barred from buying a steak?Harmful? Hell yes! So why legalize another harmful substance?Is tobacco? Is alcohol?Is the drug safe or harmful?The marijuana industry, like the gaming industry, is not only a job creator but a revenue machine. It's important if you want jobs, a regulated drug trade, increased tax revenue for states and municipalities and a decrease in our prison population.
Frankly, I don't see a down side.
The harmful argument applies to fire arms too.
The harmful argument applies to spray cans and automobiles and archery sets.
Don't bar anyone from taking anything.
End support. No more medical care. No rehab. Parents who throw addicts that are minors in the street cannot be prosecuted. No wefare, no ebt, no trip to the emergency room. Ban narcan. The right to use Deadly force against a druggie is unquestioned.
Then, maybe, we wouldn't have Rudy Eugene's crimes be compared to a paper cut.

Oh you found 2 marijuana related articles. Only 4,998 more to go. Please tell me you aren't really this stupid and you are just being stubborn because you are a prude about pot. I don't smoke pot or do any drugs, but even I know doing pot is a non-violent offense. We talked about it over and over and over in my college course about Alcohol and the law, and in many other courses.
They should be banned from drivingSome people can't handle drinking responsibly. Should they be banned from drinking?Pot is addictive for some people. Trust me, I'm a musician.A nation of drug addicts. That's the way to prosperity!
Pot is NOT addictive, but pot haters are juuuuust fine allowing " prescribed" meds to be taken like candy. Which is thousands of times more dangerous, and addictive. Those are the people who teach kids, do surgery, fix your teeth, work at a bank. Functional addicts until they hit bottom.

If rhe victim had a gun these potheads would not be beating anyone else up. Pot does not make someone peaceful. Potheads do not want to sit around and eat chips. They are violent killers.
Some people can become mentally obsessed with pot, but it is not physically or chemically addictive.Pot is addictive for some people. Trust me, I'm a musician.
About 10% is the average for addicts in other categories like food, sex, alcohol, cigarettes, etc...So it is not surprising...But i go without weed and do not feel the desire to smoke nearly as bad as stopping the use of cola...Some people can become mentally obsessed with pot, but it is not physically or chemically addictive.Pot is addictive for some people.

Can You Get Addicted To Weed? Is Marijuana Addictive?
The Surgeon General’s 1996 report entitled “Facing Addiction in America” describes marijuana as one of the “addictive drugs,”
Controversy over the recreational use of marijuana (cannabis) arises from the psychoactive properties of its primary ingredient–tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). Cannabis also contains nearly 500 compounds that include 85 other cannabinoids and tetrahydrocannabivarins, which contribute to the acuteness of marijuana’s affect on the brain.
Marijuana is a dry, shredded green and brown mix of flowers, stems, seeds, and leaves derived from the hemp plant, known as “cannabis sativa”. The active chemical in marijuana which provides the mind-altering effect is tetrahydrocannabinol (THC).
The most popular method of using marijuana is smoking it in hand-rolled cigarettes, known as a “joint”. It can also be smoked in small pipes or large water-filled devices called “bongs”. It can also be put into varies foods, like cookies or brownies. Marijuana smoke gives off a very pungent order.
According to the U.S. government statistics (SAMHSA)
Marijuana is the most-used drug after alcohol and tobacco in the United States. According to SAMHSA:
In 2014, about 22.2 million people ages 12 and up reported using marijuana during the past month.
Also in 2014, there were 2.6 million people in that age range who had used marijuana for the first time within the past 12 months. People between the ages of 12 and 49 report first using the drug at an average age of 18.5.
In the past year, 4.2 million people ages 12 and up met the criteria for a substance use disorder based on marijuana use.
These were the numbers 2-3 year ago and the laws have changed dramatically since then to make smoking pot much easier.
Marijuana over-stimulates the endocannabinoid system in the brain, leading to both psychological and physical dependency. In fact, nearly 10 percent of people who smoke marijuana will eventually develop a dependency. Further, of the seven million Americans addicted to drugs, over four million are hooked on “pot”.
Is Marijuana Addictive?
Today there still seems to be some debate about whether you can become addicted to cannabis, or not. However, make no mistake about it; marijuana is addictive. For too long, popular culture has cast it as a near harmless source of “mind-altering entertainment”. Simply put, that is untrue. Pot is the most widely used and abused illicit drug in the world. Clinical studies, diagnostic and laboratory research, as well as anecdotal evidence, has shown that marijuana use can and does lead to dependence, abuse and addiction.

how do you know?.....I have been encouraging potheads to smoke, eat, or drink foxglove in a tea for years. It's a flower and a high to die for.No need for a flower to be a controlled substance. Fucking idiots.
True there are more important issues, but this isn't just about people getting high. Pot is big business and, consequently, big taxes.Yeah, it's not that important. We have TONS of issues that are in need of attention and pot is at the bottom of that list, if it's even on the list.The marijuana industry, like the gaming industry, is not only a job creator but a revenue machine. It's important if you want jobs, a regulated drug trade, increased tax revenue for states and municipalities and a decrease in our prison population.I'm glad our elected officials are focusing on the important shit....

$1 Billion In Marijuana Taxes Is Addictive To State Governors
States are addicted to cannabis tax revenues. According to a new report from New Frontier Data, states with legalized marijuana are on track to generate approximately $655 million in state taxes on retail sales in 2017. Within that tax figure, $559 million will come just from cannabis taxes, much more than from alcohol taxes.
The report also forecasts that tax revenues in states with legalized marijuana will reach $1.8 billion, of which $1.4 billion will be from cannabis specific taxes. This money isn't easily replaceable if the Department of Justice reviews its current approach to marijuana. Plus, the Trump administration is calling for deep cuts in many programs with its proposed budget and this puts further pressure on state governors to continue providing services its residents have come to expect.

Far out. Groovy, man.Pot should be legalized and ASAP.i shall no longer call him "Crazy Cory"!
Sen. Cory Booker Will Face An Uphill Battle Fixing America’s “Badly Broken” Drug Laws
Why not? Do you think he's an authoritarian asshole?It'll never make it past Trumps desk. Nice political move by Booker I guess.
Correct. So what does this have to do with legalizing pot? Drunk or high, if a person attacks another, it's a crime....Attacking someone is a crime. The man should have been armed and take care of the problem then and there.
Correct. Don't want to be like Nanny State Liberals, do we?All good arguments for taking opiods. Good for you.
Don't bar anyone from taking anything.

Foxglove is a well known poisonous plant. Which doesn't mean potheads shouldn't give it a try.how do you know?.....I have been encouraging potheads to smoke, eat, or drink foxglove in a tea for years.

Then why not legalize it and free up law enforcement to focus on things that matter, like violent crimes and theft.Yeah, it's not that important. We have TONS of issues that are in need of attention and pot is at the bottom of that list, if it's even on the list.The marijuana industry, like the gaming industry, is not only a job creator but a revenue machine.
