Nah, you got no idea. Nice guess, though.

Well, it they’ve got money for that, they’ve got a couple bucks left for a bag of Doritos.

Druggies are not famous for thinking straight about accounting and home economics and stuff.

I thought pot heads listened to music...

That, and lapsing into raving paranoia about scary trees and spiders in drain-pipes.

Well, I suppose not. Sorry about their luck. A shame.

I reside in California. I have not smoked pot in over 35 years and have not had a drink of alcohol in nearly 23 years.

We have semi-legalized pot. It is a misdemeanor ticket.

That said, I find minimal harm in it. Does pot do long term brain damage? Probably. We know alcohol can, in excess. Tylenol can kill you.

I can’t get excited about continuing the “war on drugs” if it means putting pot smokers in prison.

Not where I live

90% of my peer group smokes pot from rarely to daily

All bar none are right leaning and will vote Trump

But that said and I know the pot biz in Colorado better then most if not all here ....my advice is to stick with medical cards to smoke and don’t go full rec

In Colorado it’s a lure that brought in transients much like free booze or methadone in Miami would bring in bums and hobo heads

Denver def has a pot bum problem..no question

Medical is to me...a reasonable enough obstacle to deter the transient lure but be available for those who want it for med or just the buzz

Like Michigan is....seems to work there

I know I’m wasting my breath being logical so when you flame back personal I’ll let you own last word

Gee Wardaddy, if I may be so very bold, where in Colorado do you live? Or how do you have such knowledge of Co. Me, I listen to Peter Boyles on AM 710 in Co. And I live in Denver. Anyhow, As a courier in Co. I visit the front range towns quite a lot. Just a simple question?...why do so many people line up for Voodoo Donuts every Saturday morning? They can’t be pot heads. It is too early in the day.? If they were smoking at 7:00 am they would be asleep by 8:00am

I don't think druggies should be telling employed people what to do. They are already skating on thin ice.

I live in Nashville area

I own car washes...seven....big ones on good property

I don’t smoke weed now but would if Wifey started back

We’re a real busy family

My main wash equip supplier is in Arvada.....

I’ have had pals in Santa Fe and Aspen and Denver and Telluride and
Monroe and Paonia and Gunnison forever and know many serious weed growers there who do indoor and winterized greenhouse and light dep etc and I’ve toured Cargills huge turnkey greenhouse lease operation in Pueblo....40 acres under glass to the point I have interest in it there but with caveats admittedly

Colorado is the gold rush

Both potus candidates are soft on weed....trump may even be softer than her

If they decriminalize federally it’ll snowball to medical like freedom everywhere is my guess

And the Klondike in Colorado will collapse

I’m seeing medical weed out there now for 400 a qp in the cheap places and 1600 a pound even though outdoor harvest is not yet in really...its trim school and cure time and some is still in ground

That’s really cheap for singles

I went in that big shop in Raton last July just to look and prices were a third of what they used to be

The biz end interests me but not in Colorado so much

The big permit tags in Michigan and ownership of dispensaries is where to be in 2018

I may make a run at one...even though I’m an avowed reb as everyone here knows ..I got kin there already papered up

Like in colorado the medical folks got first dibs on the rec permits

And contrary to what ignorant posters here say....of the two dozen or so pot business folks I know in Colorado almost all are Trump folk

But as I said earlier I prefer medical over rec to soften weed law

I loathe drunks...alcohol is a far worse scourge yet celebrated on thei forum by pot haters

Funny

My oldest boy likely will do th three year petroleum engineering degree program in Gunnison funded by Bob Mosbacher

We love anywhere near uncompagrhe or the San juans jeep trails and pearl pass to aspen

I bet it may still be open

I should hop in my FJ..I could be there by tomorrow nite...lol

And I skate on asphalt. There’s no ice in Florida.

No, because I don't need some crazed effing drooling druggie crawling through my window at night to get away from all the scary looking trees.

1. Marijuana does not induce those symptoms.

2. The 2nd Amendment allows for a suitable response in such cases.

3. Like the other poster said: Lock your window.

Regards,

There’s also been a 62 percent increase in car fatalities involving marijuana.

You do realize that that statistic does not say anything about the absolute number of car fatalities involving marijuana, don't you?

Car fatalities involving alcohol might still be at ten - or a hundred - times that level, you know.

Regards,

I'd rather eliminate all the druggies and leave my window open. Thanks.

Again with the ad hominems!

You have no knowledge of my (or chris37's) employment record, or drug-use record.

Regards,
