Crime Trump is reportedly thinking of reclassifying marijuana

[Snubnoze707]

Both. Most commercial grow ops are inside.

We have a big problem up here right now with Chinese nationals growing illegally.

Give it time, once prices go down so will the amount of grows you see. It was EVERYWHERE in California at one point too. Worse when it was "medical" but once the prices went down the grow ops vanished. I'm sure Maine is well behind in the industry and there is still more demand for it on that side of the country. California has been way ahead of the rest of the country when it comes to cannabis, and that has been the experience over here.

It's been legal in Canada for years. It's not some massive Shockwave to society.

 

[Sweater of AV]

Make it legal for medicinal use and go hit the gym.

The legal weed tax in CA is INSANE. I only used to buy weed chocolate due to some pretty shitty surgery and wanting a restful sleep but ridiculous.

Got no problem with it other than Cigarillo packages by thousands littered all over the place and every place

We already have that problem with actual cigarettes and it can only get better with this change.

smelling like dogshit now.

There is NOTHING worse than cigarettes. The smell can only get better.

Democrats will be anti weed now and want reefer madness (the original) shown in schools.

The victim complex is strong in this one.

That would be interesting but it wouldn't be a surprise though.

If your reasoning for wanting to keep cannabis schedule 1 is "I don't like the smell", fuck you.

Re(de)scheduling /=/ federal legalization.

Decriminalization /=/ federal legalization.

Don't be a Charlie Kirk. You may not like it, you may not partake in it, but it's here and it's here to stay.

Enforcing and ticketing no smoking in public laws like you already would cigarettes is much smarter and logical than trying to blanket ban cannabis, which is already used in many different ways (edibles, beverages).

People have been complaining about the smell of cigarettes for decades, weed is far worse, it is what it is, i would have no smell if possible and i don’t think it should be criminalized, both can be true statements.

This should be a no brainer, many years ago I was against legalization of MJ, not because it’s that bad compared to alcohol or other drugs. But I thought giving more access to a drug might cause more problems in societies. I changed my mind overtime as I believe it’s the easiest to get illegal or legal and one of the least harmful drugs.

I think growing up seeing anecdotal evidence of people I looked up to becoming potheads then going to harder drugs , made me think it was a gateway drug . But it’s on the person and it’s about less government interfering in government lives .

Anyways let’s see if Trump does it . I thought Biden would have .

This is difficult question.
From one point government might earn a lot of tax if it is legal....plus additionally with de criminization might significantly reduce earnings for mafia chains....

With this tax income might be increased significantly and mafia chains income will reduce...

While it is gateway drug, yes...

However maybe better allow to sell it legally and get tax money for budget not ...with huge black market prices plus stuff might be treated with something too. Plus big income for black market etc....

In Netherlands they had xx years long discussions about this.

Weed isn't innocent stuff but lesser dangerous for society than self made alco, meth and PCP/LSD type stuff.
Under the table always will be. For enough $£€ ofc.

The legal weed tax in CA is INSANE. I only used to buy weed chocolate due to some pretty shitty surgery and wanting a restful sleep but ridiculous.

They actually should prescribe AB, painkillers and if needed NSAIDS and re investigation process plus even repeated surgery if needed.

I for example had sometimes coke used for local anesth done like if you have max allowed 24 h HDD administered during 1-1,5 hours.... for local job.

Plus after some next surgeries fent....then morph type stuff.
They had corrected situation by changing AB and next surgery done.

I don't have problems if you smoke tobacco or weed. However for me it isn't comfortable to do this.
Some 1/2 from cigar or ....
I feel more tired, therefore I don't use tobacco or weed. However I don't have any impact or problems with aroma from these etc.

 

[Rob Battisti]

So long as it’s like alcohol I don’t see what the problem is. I do have people just smoking on the street in public.

You might want to read what I wrote.

"If your reasoning for wanting to keep cannabis SCHEDULE 1 is "I don't like the smell", you're a dumb fuck."

More people need to be educated on the classification of drugs and what the scheduling process actually does/prevents.

Thats the democrats platform now it all "orange man bad".

Actually I love it along with "we must protect the illegals no matter what".

They are handing out the political weapons to be used against them. Its great.

 

[Ezekiel 25:17]

Its the 1st good thing he would do in his new term. Unfortunately for him itll be blanketed by the dozens of shitty things hes done so far.

This is interesting
However I would have assumed he reclassified sex trafficking and child rape so he could release certain files first.

 

[Koro_11]

Would love to smoke a joint and read the Epstein files.

Tbh according to that dipshit from the Nixon administration (John Ehrlichman) who classified weed as a deadly drug in the first place, every person in jail for smoking weed is a political prisoner, because they made it illegal in order to strip the vote away from hippies

Would be shocked if Trump did this, I also imagine the republicans would block it if he tried

No, fuck that, weed gets me all inside my head, and the last thing I wanna do when im weeded is read a about a bunch of kids getting trafficked to pdf files.

 

[WhiteMousse]

Have no idea why anyone would oppose the decriminalization of it.

No, it isn't. And no, it isn't.

We are all dead chuffed to know

I haven't been interested in years. It used to be neat going to a dispensary because it was all so clinical, Silicon Valley and nice but I don't have that here.
