It needs to be removed federally as a schedule 1 drug! You Can still lose your job if testing positive for thc on a drug test!
I wonder how much Marijuana the politicians smoke🤣🤣🤣
"“In strict medical terms marijuana is far safer than many foods we commonly consume. For example, eating 10 raw potatoes can result in a toxic response. By comparison, it is physically impossible to eat enough marijuana to induce death. Marijuana in its natural form is one of the safest therapeutically active substances known to man."
– Francis Young (DEA Administrative Law Judge – 1988])
"Penalties against possession of a drug should not be more damaging to an individual than the use of the drug itself; and where they are, they should be changed. Nowhere is this more clear than in the laws against possession of marijuana in private for personal use…”
– Jimmy Carter (U.S.President)
“Congress should definitely consider decriminalizing possession of marijuana… We should concentrate on prosecuting the rapists and burglars who are a menace to society.”
– Dan Quayle (U.S. Representative & Vice President)
"Even if one takes every reefer madness allegation of the prohibitionists at face value, marijuana prohibition has done far more harm to far more people than marijuana ever could."
“The anti-marijuana campaign is a cancerous tissue of lies, undermining law enforcement, aggravating the drug problem, depriving the sick of needed help and suckering well intentioned conservatives and countless frightened parents.”
– William F. Buckley Jr. (American conservative author & commentator)
"The illegality of cannabis is outrageous, an impediment to full utilization of a drug which helps produce the serenity and insight, sensitivity and fellowship so desperately needed in this increasingly mad and dangerous world."
– Dr. Carl Sagan (American Cosmologist, Astrobilologist, author & science communicator)
“You bet I did -— and I enjoyed it.” ….when asked if he had ever smoked marijuana.
– Michael Bloomberg (New York City Mayor)
"Studies have consistently failed to establish the existence of a link between the harshness of a country’s drug laws and its levels of drug use."
– Kofi Annan (U.N. Secretary General)
"Pot is a better drug than alcohol. I'll prove it to you. You're at a ball game or a concert, and someone's really violent and aggressive and obnoxious, are they drunk or are they smoking pot?"
“Why is pot against the law? It wouldn't be because anyone can grow it, and therefore you can't make a profit off it, would it?”
“…It grows naturally upon our planet. Doesn’t the idea of making nature against the law seem to you a bit … unnatural?”
-Bill Hicks (Satirist, Social Critic, Stand-Up Comedian)
"If the words "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness" don't include the right to experiment with your own consciousness, then the Declaration of Independence isn't worth the hemp it was written on."
– Terence McKenna (American ethnobotanist, author, advocate for responsible use of natural psychedelic plants)
I RIDE MOTORCYCLES & TRI-ATHALON BICYCLES. I LIVED IN Las Vegas, Nevada 35 years… I will tell you the problem is not just marijuana… it is the fact that most are so stupid because either going to work or driving home, many just have to smoke it while driving… no, can not stay home and smoke it, so stupid FOLKS must smoke in their car. DRIVE ON HIGHWAY I-215 if you get that smoke in a full face helmet because the idiot smoking that just passed me at 100mph + that stink will stay in the helmet for ten miles. cars leaving or coming home always a cloud fouling the air and foul music blasting. it is not the plants fault but those who seem to focus on that lifestyle are selfish morons. sorry if I offend the smart folks who do smoke at home. I live in Minnesota now going on 3 years so I am not happy to have this happen plus the bad un repaired roads and pot smoking drivers is a bad mix. On a bicycle… please be safe, my friend.
Legalize it
Washington State is where I live was number 2 to pass legalized weed. It was legalized in the year two thousand and twelve it's a route tide billion dollar cash cow
Be wise and legalize…
They're acting like thier doing greasy for us but in reality thru want us all slow and dumbed down……. THINK ABOUT IT
It’s about time. Im your neighbour and we legalized it years ago. It collects lots of tax dollars and makes no difference at all to the public. We can grow 4 plants. I have yet to hear of ANYONE dying from weed. I say control alcohol. That’s the real killer!!
"But counties and towns can't opt out!" As if there arent liqour stores, cigarette outlets and strip clubs in many of those places already.
Our country is already addicted to worse things. Keeping stuff illegal is a waste of law enforcement's time and money. They have bigger fish to fry like fentanol or the other horrifying chemistry like the zombie drug. Conservatives need to give up these dumb fights so we can focus on fixing the country.
Meanwhile across the border those socialists have had legal weed and legal plants at home for years already.😂😂😂
What a time to be at Taco Bell franchisee.🤣
Even Missouri and Montana legalized it, and those states are about as Red as they come. Minnesota is such a nanny state, I mean we are the ONLY state in the union that still sells 3.2 beer!!!
It will help so many with pain and depression. Give 4 guys in a bar cannabis and they will start a band. Give 4 guys drink and they will start a fight. It will also drop people intake of opioids. Big pharma will be kicking itself as it so called drugs sales will drop in favour of natural medicine
Marijuana is a remedy not a drug!
Yes, keep them numb and dumb, Its the Biden way.
Tim is getting his liberal wish, everyone gets high, hope it doesn't hurt anyone in his family, Keep smiling Tim.
Our laws are just all over the place. They claim you're an adult at 18, but you can't drink or smoke until you're 21. So in reality, 21 is probably the "real" age of adulthood. But then again, you can vote and go to war at 18. Then you can start driving at like 15 or 16, with a vehicle that's capable of killing someone. Then some states have age of consent at 16, 17 or 18. There's no consistency with anything. Laws are just all over the place. And don't get me started with "trying someone as an adult" who is underage. But then on the other hand, they got rid of the death penalty for people who commit murder under the age of 18. So everything is screwed up. There's a lack of consistency.
Congratulations 🎊🍾
Hooray 🎉 ✌🏻
Smokin' weed….Smokin' weed…Smokin' weed. Keep that population "stupid" so they continue to vote for the DFL wokesters…🥳
So what's the legal limit for driving?
