The pot push is disgusting on so many levels. It literally makes society dumb. Colorado is a prime example.

Have you ever heard of The River Key area of KC. They were blowing each others saloons up in the 70s. Ive rode horses through hemp patches 5 feet deep. My comic relief is I didnt know what it was. Killing and burning it, I must have smoked a bunch. Pretty funny, a cold one, and a movie, and Wanda was all I cared about.

My bit of experience with "recreational" pot users (illegal here in VA) is that they get dumber. People who consume enough alcohol can get just as dumb, but at that point they have trouble standing. Pot use results in the same amount of dumbness without the physical effects.
Medical pot is pretty much a farce. It is semi-legal here in Virginia which means open season. In DC they give it to kids, and they bring it to school. Not allowed to share of course.

I live in metro area of 300,000 in a state where recreational has been legal for six years. There are two pot shops.

So let's bring back alcohol prohibition. That was a sterling success, wasn't it?

Those fighting marijuana don’t understand how it is the same as the prohibition argument.

Those big shots on the Quay took each other out real good, didn’t they. And the feds rounded up quite a few more all over MO and KS.

Well all I can say is this was the first Thanksgiving where the young adults in the famiy all looked like they could do with a long nap! The food was either undercooked, burnt or cold and it took four of them figuring out how to make gravy that tasted so sweet you’d thought they were making candy!....I truly wondered if they weren’t high..
Soooo you’re comment made sense to me!

Alcohol Prohibition was an unpopular law passed on an unwilling public. It made a criminal of 1 out of every 40 Americans.It never did anything it was supposed to do and it virtually created organized crime. It's repeal was the first legislative act FDR undertook because, for one thing making booze was a business and it generated tax revenue. Consider some thing else too: Drug dealers don't ask kids for id, do they? Do you understand this point?

Do you really think they are going to start that much sooner? Robert Downey, Jr., was introduced to marijuana at the age of eight. Fortunately, it was his father, and not a pedophile.

The tight supply means that weed is likely to be relatively expensive,
meaning with their cheaper weed, the mexican cartels will be making money hand over fist from these fools.
