Cannabis Legalization in the US

Re: Cannabis Legalization in the US

Eire is decriminalizing small amounts of everything (or thats the plan).

I think the priests misinterpreted the headlines tho...

I haven't had a smoke for about 5 years now after not going a day without it for about 15 years.

On the whole, I've felt much better for not having it but I do miss it now and again.

Ive always wondered if legalisation would make me go back to it again.

It's not the smoking that helps particularly . The oil is what kids with epilepsy are given . Lots of conversations happening here, but fuck all else. If these kids parents are caught administering to them They still could face 15 years jail.

I've got a bit of mixed feelings about the "anything goes" attitude - partly because of the idea of how healthcare will be impacted by the dipshits that will take thinks to the brink habitually. Darwin or not, doctors/EMTs/paramedics will still be obliged to help said dipshits from themselves. In some cases, over and over again.

But, at the same time, part of me agrees with you - once weed becomes legal here, you'll likely see a lot of abuse at first, but hopefully moderation will kick in for most when we get past the novelty of legal weed. Part of me thinks that decriminalizing all drugs might have the same effect.

In the places that have legalised moderation did kick in. One of the biggest advantages to legalisation will be lack of contamination.

United States was the country that for control .. profit etc etc

invented the idiot ego business of prohibit the plant,


all the plants are free, Nature is free as it is

it´s the human ego commanded by his fear of control everything, as individuals and as countries, .. that they think they can decide if a plant is free

sure they are looking for another business, make a monoculture etc etc, all pure shit to the plant itself



only real seeds is what mother Earth needs, nothing controlled by a government completely full of fear

Oh goody! Does that mean I can have free fruit and veg ???

Btw they are definitely not looking to legalise smoking here, but they are going to trail the low THC for medical purposes.

Good point about the lack of contamination. But the moderation point, I think, will only kick in after people start to get a bit stupid and crazy with their new found freedom with weed. I'm not looking forward to dealing with employees at my work that are going to call in sick because they overdid it while getting stoned the night before/over the weekend.

Here in the province that I live in, alcohol is sold only in government licensed and operated stores (called the LCBO - Liquor Control Board of Ontario) - it's not sold anywhere else (at least not legally) and they're just now allowing small amounts of liquor to be sold in grocery stores. It's fucking ridiculous.

I'm worried to some degree that we're going to have the same kind of bullshit government monopoly running things, making it impossible for entrepreneurial attempts to grow their own strains without (possibly overly) strict oversight. I guess I kind of want it both ways - regulation to ensure that the weed is clean (so to speak), but not so much government oversight that it strangles off innovation.

LOL if they call out because of that excuse then they got problems. Now if booze or pills was in the mix I could understand.

Well, they'll never say that outright, but I'm extremely confident that attendance and sick day call ins will sharply increase for the first little while after it's legal. It's amusing how people kind of let on that they smoke it, but won't outright say it.

Re: Cannabis Legalization in the US

sorry but smoking out is the one thing you do not wake up from a hangover from, add the alcohol then i agree but straight smoking no way. in fact you probably will get a better nights sleep.
