That’s corn, I think. That’s not pot.

Secular psychologists and psychiatrists are onto the collective damage of these potent weed strains. This is not pure cannabis, nor just tame nicoteen like cigarettes.

Traffic stats prove them too.

And sweet mom and pop shops have been replaced by weed dispensaries and homelessness. I live in Los Angeles. I can physically see the sad fruit of the mental and cultural rot all around.

As I wrote, cite me a source. Your stating it doesn’t make it so.

And, you live in a shit hole. It’s as if the big earthquake has already happened. Why are you waiting around for it happen.

And that’s because of the government you elect. Not because of pot.

It’s legal in my state, and the folks aren’t congregating on the lawns down the street.

I sent you a message but one of my sources in my personal life is a clinical psychologist friend. She’s more up to date than me.

In a nutshell: it’s not good.

Your point was in regards to children. That’s not the legalized market. Anyone giving intoxicants or any sort to children should be imprisoned.

If I didn’t get high I’d probably climb the Texas Tower.

He has been on it since VN.

And if anyone wants to see how what it does to a person, he is prime candidate.

All kinds of excuses for using it. None of them valid.

Oh, so you think someone goes from a single hit off a joint to a meth addict in a single day? Got it.

I love the smell of a good cigar. Reminds me of my dad who smoked very nice Cubans.

It’s the combo the next day, usually at church, when I could smell the remnants of cigar/cigarette and liquor.

I supervised a woman who smelled the same way on Mondays...sometimes Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays. Ha. She was a flake.

I’m no prude by any means.

Have you noticed how the numbers of homeless increased exponentially as states started legalizing marijuana?

Your reasoning is exactly that used to outlaw alcohol. How did that work out?

Meanwhile, the War on (Some) Drugs has had a devastating impact on almost every liberty imaginable. You literally cannot board a plane carrying more than $10,000 of cash without letting Uncke know, or it (not you) will be charged with committing a crime and taken from you. I will take a few people with no self control ruining their lives vs. destroying our liberties every single time. We’ve fought wars for that. Besides, addictive people will ALWAYS find a way to destroy themselves and negativiely impact the lives of those close to them.

He’s right. Refreshingly honest. I live in the SF Bay Area and before weed was legalized I rarely smelled it. Now I smell it all the time, and it smells awful. If a community chooses to ban cigarette smoking due to the smell and secondhand smoke, smoking weed should be treated the same and for the same reasons.

“My neighbor is an MD and told me he recommends it to patients instead of opiates.”

I’m really starting to hate doctors.

Once pain surpasses a certain threshold, nothing—nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing—will control it even a tiny little bit except opiates.

Doctors know this. Every last one of them knows it.

Mankind has been using opiates for at least five thousand years, but this crop of arrogant, unethical thunder mugs has taken them away from people who really need them.

If you’re talking real pain, you’ll get as much relief from a cup of herbal tea as you will from pot. It’s just not that strong.

The number I want to see is how many veterans are committing suicide because they are in pain every minute of every day since the sawbones took away all effective treatment for pain. These “doctors” will burn in Hell for all eternity, but that’s not helping us now. I’m just lucky I have my rage and my hatred to sustain me. More effective than pot, at least.

I haven’t seen that here in Alaska. Small amounts of personal weed have been legal up here for quite some time. The biggest change with legalization is the stink all over town and more idiots out there smoking & driving.

I can believe you or my personal experience.

Let me think.

"Medical pot is already legal in Florida."

Florida's Constitution was also recently amended to legalize the votes of felon (Democrats).

Every four years, a proportion of patriotic Seniors disappear, and their replacement-voters have been brainwashed in our Socialist government schools.

Our country is increasingly operated by a felonious and stupid government.
