Notice that the AP suddenly pronounces the existence of a “marijuana industry”. How much longer before it’s “Big Pot” when they start getting jealous of the obscene profits thereof?

[cripplecreek]

Any fantasy about the marijuana industry being morally superior to any other will collapse pretty quickly.

Locally we’ve already had allegations of bribery from one dispensary owner to get the city council to limit the competition.

All I can say is thankfully the military still requires drug testing — At least I know that my brothers and sisters in arms are drug free (for the most part) and I don’t have to deal with these idiots. Now they may be queer as a three dollar bill, but at least if they are working on any aircraft I have to fly on, they are not high as kite and doing insanely stupid stuff while under the influence and jeopardizing the lives of their Shipmates.

Part of the dumbing down of America. A stupid citizenry will more willingly submit to communism and sharia.

Maureen Dowd, a New York Times columnist who got sick from eating one on a visit to write about pot.

Ha ha. Couldn't happen to a dumber skank.

You can thank Hearst for the war on marijuana.

But reverend Jim was funny.

[bmwcyle]

Yes, dude, that will work.

[a fool in paradise]

The underground illegal marihuana industry still exists in Colorado undercutting the cost of the legal dope.

So much for “tax the hell out of it” or even “license it, regulate it, and things will be fine”.

Get ready for a doobie-tokin’ Marlboro Man.

From what I've read, MJ is a far better choice for things like pain relief, nausea, etc., than opiod narcotics like Vicodin, Oxycontin and Percocet. At the very least it should be legalized for medical use.

“Sterotypes”? Yah,sure.

[MasterGunner01]

What “marijuana industry”? I see a lot of 1960s “everyone’s got to be stoned” types and their offspring clamoring for their favorite recreational drug of choice. But “industry”? I don't think so. I see a bunch of eternal adolescents unwilling to grow up and instead hide from reality by embracing a chemical solution by staying perpetually stoned.

[longtermmemmory]

stoners are the users. It is reality. It is not a “stereotype” it is part are parcel of every user.

[TexasRepublic]

Stereotypes must contain some element of truth for them to be recognizable.
