Washington moving closer to legalized Marijuana

[EvilCat Breath]

a drug that's safer than that shit the doctors pump out.

Not any more.

 

[insolent imp]

Admiral's right: hasn't changed the law, though it sometimes changes the force of the law.

ok.. I had it a bit twisted I'll look.

 

[insolent imp]

Not any more.

why is that?

 

[Admiral Rockwell Tory]

hasn't executive orders changed law in the past?

No. There were Presidents who tried, but the courts smacked them back down to reality. See my comment regarding DACA.

 

[EvilCat Breath]

why is that?

The strains are much stronger than they were even just a few years ago. Weed users nearly 25% more likely to need emergency care and hospitalization | CNN. It is making people sick, ending up in the ER.

Finally they're coming around


CNN —
President Joe Biden is taking his first major steps toward decriminalizing marijuana, fulfilling a campaign pledge to erase prior federal possession convictions and beginning the process of potentially loosening federal classification of the drug.

Biden on Thursday will pardon all prior federal offenses of simple marijuana possession, a move that senior administration officials said would affect thousands of Americans charged with that crime.

Obvious pre election stunt. Why didnt Biden do this the day he took office? He waited to be able to make it political.

Trump should have done this.

Do we know exactly how many people this affects?

Are we talking 100? 1,000? 10,000?

Long overdue.

You might want to reconsider the criteria.

Has anyone ever died from marijuana?

This is true. Research shows that it seems impossible for the human body to get a toxic dose of marijuana.

No government law has stopped me from enjoying a puff.
Never will.
Prohibition never works.

All the more need to have the feds legalize it and regulate it the way they do alcohol.

Unregulated booze production is dangerous as hell - you can go blind or die from drinking bathtub liquor. But regulate it, and it's something people can enjoy in moderate amounts.

There's no substance that's not capable of killing a person. It's the dose that makes the poison - even water can kill you if you drink too much of it in a short span of time,

but yet 0.0 marijuana overdose deaths.

Your talking to the Carrie Nation of the weed debate.
A full nanny statist that has actually called for the execution of drug users.
Proving that even the right will also use government to control human behavior.

For the record, I voted Trump, for those morons who think those who partake in marijuana are commies.

It's not harmless. It can lead to cognitive impairment and there's some research that suggests it could even lead to schizophrenia if consumed before the adult brain has fully developed.
