Trump to Legalize Pot?

[TNHarley]

Let adults make their own decisions in their own homes,

Exactly. Why do people think its their business? Especially when they say they are for freedom and small govt..

 

[Lockback]

Bullshit. Pot has permanent life-altering consequences. Maybe not for everyone but certainly for anyone and for many already.
Comparing to alcohol or anything else is irrelevant. None of these things justify any other.
But alcohol in mild doses is mostly harmless. Pot works problems with one dose. Like a dimmer switch vs an on/off switch.
And people don’t randomly force their alcohol onto others in public with impunity the way pot smoking idiots and THC vapers do.
Pot is a dangerous drug and public awareness is way overdue.

One of the great lies emanating from the Stupid 1960s is that " ... it's just a harmless plant."
Yeah.
Just a harmless plant that has ruined a lot of lives. And it's so much more powerful now than back then. It's a public health crisis that's totally ignored and now even promoted. It's Grade A Stupid.

No harm, no foul

But Republicans will never support it

There are plenty of ignorant republican pot advocates just like lots of ignorant democrats.

 

[Lockback]

Then they had other issues. If you lose yourself to pot, its your fault. Pot isnt crack or heroine.

Well, a lot of people have had "those other issues". Too damn many.

 

[Captain Creeper]

Alcohol is legal and does more damage.

How bout the ripple. It good for ya, ain't it?

 

[IM2]

Shit, you is high right now, IMGAY, judging from your writing. Also, I note that the ONLY contribution to this thread is to throw a racist slant into it. LOL!!

Wrong again, Captain Queeg.

 

[IM2]

You tell me, Captain Queeg. It seems like you're the one drinking it.

 

[TNHarley]

And thats not a flower that grows in a ditches fault.
Look, im not for people smoking and driving, or using it and putting themselves in a predicament that could hurt other people. But if a grown man or woman wants to smoke a joint after dinner, whos business is it other than theirs?

 

[RoshawnMarkwees]

Exactly. Its a natural flower. Well, its mostly cross bred now, but its still just a flower. Alcohol destroys your liver, Weed destroys nothing but maybe a few brain cells. And they regenerate...

So is poison Ivy. Geez, the stupidity. Pot has obviously destroyed more than a few of your brain cells. Just hope you don’t develop an anxiety disorder or hypermesis syndrome. Do some research and don’t use pro-pot sites.

 

[Captain Creeper]

People are stressed. Work work work. Rush here rush there. Be more productive blah blah....its tiring and stressful. Its a rat race. People are looking for relief. Drugs arent the place to escape really but i think its up to the individual. With the number of states that allow it whats the point to be a stickler about it. We allow booze. Lots of people drink. Do some want that outlawed too?

I am usually more frazzled than a strippers titty twirlers when I get home from work. I have to sit down and play with my dogs for a half hour or so to wind down and relax. Drinking booze is not the way to go. I note that I used to consume Scotch like a 5 year old would consumer ice cream if turned loose in a Ben and Jerry's. I was never a drunk, per se, but there are other ways to accomplish the same result.

I have been smoking for 22 years and none of that shit happened to me. Reefer madness wasnt a documentary

Have you ever tried kava?

 

[RoshawnMarkwees]

Make booze illegal and half of the pharmaceuticals that you have kids addicted to, prescribed by a doctor. If not, you are a hypocrite.

It's amazing how easily people are lead.

Let adults make their own decisions in their own homes, I've seen FAR more damage done to people via alcohol, gambling and pharmaceuticals.

You don’t criminalize something to justify legalizing another. Each needs to be dealt with individually. Any doctor who abuses their authority needs to have their credentials revoked.

Today's pot, which is much stronger than the shit hippies grew in their closets under lights, turns people schizo and psychotic.

So many people are clueless and kept that way by a creepy industry.

I know a whoooole lot of potheads and I have never seen that. Ever.

Yep. Have 'em look up "scromit".

Just like the cigarette industry 50 years ago.

I say "let adults make their own decisions"

How many people are dying from heart attacks and strokes from a lifetime of eating Fast Food? Or refined carbs? Ultra sugar in kids drinks, on and on,

I used to brew Kava tea regularly about 20-25 years ago. I don't think you can get it anymore due to people damaging their livers by using too much of it.
