And now -- just like that -- marijuana is 100% Republican and good for business.

Now, I wish these pot companies would make stronger weed.

That's what they say but if you are used to it, the weed today sucks. I need to get my hands on some Snoop Dog California weed.

I buy this stuff called RSO or Rick Simpson Oil. It's super concentrated. They say just put a rice size in your mouth but I put about 10 x that much when I do it. So do the people who work at the dispensary. But it does get me fucked up like when I was younger.

Send it back to the States to figure out.

All he will probably do is take it off Schedule I.

Which is a horrible move. It further signals mainstreaming of a dangerous substance and emboldens more potheads to put others at risk.
Pot advocates are among the most grossly misinformed group-thinkers ever.

It's the right move. Allows concentration on far more dangerous drugs.

States can still ban it if they choose to.

Pot is a far more dangerous drug. You’ve been duped. That’s exactly where the pot industry wants you.

I smoke once a year during my camping trip, and did it not too often but often enough in college with zero issues.

MMO's like world of warcraft are a bigger addiction threat for me.

So far. And you are not everyone.

And I know others who do it around the same amount or a bit more, and have perfectly normal lives.

I'd rather fight on heroin, meth and fentanyl than pot. Let the States police it and let the feds concentrate on the hard drugs.

I used it for five years with a perfectly normal life. Then it caused derealization disorder for the rest of my life. That began fifty years ago.
I have a friend who’s been using for over fifty years but has been in and out of the hospital for the past five months with hypermesis. Almost died — so far.
It’s Russian roulette. If you read this post, you are no longer ignorant.

If Trump moves towards it Democrats will stand against it. Within a year or two weed will be more shunned than fentanyl by liberals and the press.

We can't make laws based on only certain parts of society and how they react to certain things.

Alcoholism causes far more death and family destruction, but we permit it because most people can handle it.

And the risks of alcohol are well documented and enforced in labeling. Plus, drinkers don’t pour their liquor down other people’s throats the way pot smokers and vapers inflict their drug onto others. And one dose of alcohol doesn’t cause mental illness the way THC can.
What’s more, alcohol is not dispensed as medicine because it’s not. Neither is THC but it’s falsely and illegally advertised and dispensed as such. If you want it legalized, it must come with warnings, restrictions and serious consequences for violation.
As of now, too many people are clueless and kept that way.

So you had bad experience with it, so BAN IT ALL.

Sorry, but I smoke in the woods, or at concerts where everyone else is smoking, and at concerts I just vape anyway.

You’re being a sheep.
Why is smoking pot acceptable but tobacco isn’t? Pot is like tobacco with a psychoactive drug in it. That’s utter hypocrisy.
I can’t go to concerts because of the risk from that dangerous group think.
And I didn’t just have a bad experience, I had a life alteration as have several other people I know. By contrast, I don’t know of a single person who has developed lung disease from asbestos yet that’s been completely banned. Should I insist that asbestos is safe and be decriminalized?
It’s about ignorance and sinister promotion.

Single issue person is single issue.

Not when it’s many and increasing numbers of people. Not when it’s being falsely promoted as safe and not when it’s being used in ways that randomly subject others to it.

Banning it didn't work. people kept using it, use it more now, and the half assed level of enforcement only serves to reduce respect for the law.

Regulate it and tax it, give it back to the States.

And authorize shooting people who smoke it in public. Perfectly fair.

No, actually fine people for smoking/vaping ANYTHING in enclosed spaces like concerts but set aside designated areas for them to do so legally.

And don’t forget… mass shootings have directly coincided with legalization and increased use of pot.
