Marijuana legalization. What's your stance?

[zack1234]

You people are degenerates

Complaining about the Russians Chinese etc 

[RotBaron]

Funny that earlier in the thread it was said that until the old guard dinosaur Republicans don’t have the power to stop Federal legalization it won’t happen.

Well, the law making branches and Executive are squarely in the legalize corner and yet there’s nearly ZERO mention of even an attempt. So what’s the deal? 

Your best shot is now, right?

The deal is, which seems to be a frequent occurrence with you, you comment with lack of knowledge.  The More Act was just passed in the House a couple days ago, voting was solidly down party lines, and is now off to the Senate.  Likely to fail there due to the Republican senators.

Many are talking about its medicinal use, isn't it legal medicinally now? I have no idea since I never needed it.

No not federally.  It is still listed as a schedule 1 drug.  About a dozens states also haven't made it legal medicinally.

"Schedule I

Schedule I drugs, substances, or chemicals are defined as drugs with no currently accepted medical use and a high potential for abuse. Some examples of Schedule I drugs are: heroin, lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD), marijuana (cannabis), 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (ecstasy), methaqualone, and peyote."

Medical is a state run scam

You pay $100's every 6 months for a license - the ability to purchase your medicine at inflated prices that no medical insurance will cover...

Anyone who consumes alcohol or is ok with that, has no leg to stand on against legislation for legalization of this weed...Republicans are hypocrites when it comes to cannabis

A perfect life should be drug free...haven't seen many of those

The war on drugs seems to be like most wars...fought endlessly for profit IMO

Treatment for abuse would be the better investment

Treatment for abuse?

Why?

If your a drug addict you deserve nothing.

If your a fat obese glutton who eats 20 Big Macs a day you deserve no sympathy.

Todays Western culture is based on excuses.

There is to much money to be made to stop it.

Each drug addict is allocated $100k to solve the problem in the US…FACT

[Eagler]

It all goes back to the monkey mind...drug or food abuse

Just like everyone who eats is not addicted to food and obese nor is everyone who drinks or consumes cannabis addicted to them "drug addict"

Did you have a problem with those yourself Zach?

Sounds like you or someone you know might have...

Like most it goes to the strength of their minds and the control or lack of it

Cannabis is the least of the world's problems today IMO

Pie addiction.

Correct, I was unaware of it (I get news from many sources, quite surprised since in my household MSM news I have to put up with). The Bill (“Act”) passed with a vote of 220-204, that’s not overwhelming support and IMO not a very good show for the Senate on an issue of legalizing a mind altering chemical for recreational aka “fun” use. We shall see, but I’d be surprised if there’s many Senators beating the drum for this one and Schumer has his own, which only a few others I can find wanting to even speak publicly about his Bill.

“The U.S. House of Representatives passed the MORE Act, a bill that would end the federal prohibition on cannabis by removing it from the list of banned controlled substances. This is the second time the bill passed the House; however, it will face strong headwinds in the Senate.” - Forbes

Frequent occurrence? Examples please, since you say frequent I made it plural.

[zack1234]

Only problem I have is liberals and degenerates

Always excuses for everything

And you people gibber on about Russia China Syria and the rest.

If you drink 3 bottles of gin a day your a clown.

If you do drugs for kicks when your over 25 your a clown

If your fat it’s your own fault keep your teeth together

Is the Ukraine thing finished yet?

The Russians have lost? You clowns

  ‘Likely to fail there due to the Republican senators.’

Also, not sure how you figure this, seems maybe you lack the knowledge the D’s have the tie breaker and the two I’s caucus with them…not to mention the two (one in ME and one in AK) that are swingers in states where it’s legal.

Seems you lack the knowledge of two senators, one from your own state, who are DINO.
