Thank you again.

Yuck. So now I have to put up with every “back pain” patient and millennial stinking up my space with something that smells a heck of a lot worse than cigarette smoke.

So why does Singapore have one of the highest rates of schizophrenia in the world (#7 out of 192), while the US and the Netherlands rank among the lowest (#181 and #173 respectively, out of 192).

More idiocy.

She gets a bit of a buzz from the thc when she takes extra. pancreatitus is no fun

And here we go again with deflection.

I don't give a rip about Alcohol. I'm not going to indulge this childish but consistent attempt to say "Well this stuff is bad, so my bad stuff ought to be allowed Tooooooooooo!!!!" Waaaaaaaaahhhh!!!!!!

Potheads are easy to control

So are drunks...want to bring back Prohibition?

[DiogenesLamp]

Now that the public has discovered real medical benefits from marijuana, there will be no stopping the tide of acceptance.

This sort of thing has been done before. It didn't work out well at all.

Our new governor keeps his word!

I’ve enjoyed dancing with glee around the stunned progressives I know who hated the notion this was even possible with a GOP governor.

It’s what 71% of voters voted for in 2016 besides our awesome President Trump!

I wonder if I shall ever see a discussion of weed or other drugs, in which the words "Prohibition" or "Alcohol" do not get mentioned.

"As it will be in the future, it was at the birth of Man
There are only four things certain since Social Progress began.
That the Dog returns to his Vomit and the Sow returns to her Mire,
And the burnt Fool's bandaged finger goes wabbling back to the Fire;

[DiogenesLamp]

Using drugs isn't freedom. It's just an illusion of freedom.

"Men are qualified for civil liberty in exact proportion to their disposition to put moral chains upon their own appetites, — in proportion as their love to justice is above their rapacity, — in proportion as their soundness and sobriety of understanding is above their vanity and presumption, — in proportion as they are more disposed to listen to the counsels of the wise and good, in preference to the flattery of knaves. Society cannot exist, unless a controlling power upon will and appetite be placed somewhere; and the less of it there is within, the more there must be without. It is ordained in the eternal constitution of things, that men of intemperate minds cannot be free. Their passions forge their fetters."

Yes dementia and schizophrenia have drastically spiked in the last five decades. If you dont read medical reports

I call BS - post links to the alleged medical reports that support your claim.

[NobleFree]

Potheads are easy to control, they wear a THC slave collar already.

Ditto for alkies - should we therefore ban alcohol?

I don't give a rip about Alcohol.

Of course not - consistent application of principle is the death of prohibitionism.

You and your pesky facts.

[NobleFree]

This is not China and marijuana is not opium.

[NobleFree]

men of intemperate minds cannot be free

What of it? Can you provide reason to believe that all marijuana use is intemperate?

[NobleFree]

I just noticed your rank hypocrisy in comparing marijuana to opium while vehemently condemning the comparison of marijuana to alcohol.
