Every drug-free person of average intelligence or more knows that potheads won’t vote for a president who is against legalizing drug abuse. Those who can still legally vote will vote for Biden, because they don’t care about any meaningful American freedoms. They only care about the drug that controls their minds.
See the antisocial personalities in the riots, folks, and think again. Look at the mugshots from drug busts in your local news for a few days.
So, does that include all of the OUI arrests too?
“a president who is against legalizing drug abuse.”
When did Trump say he was against legalization? During the 2016 campaign he said it was a matter for the states.
Walker didn’t get in front of it and support legalization.
Your username reminded me of this. It might or might not be related to your username, but it’s related to this thread and certainly pertinent to making the mistake of living in some of the western states.

Dave’s not here.
I was referring to drug related driving under the influence.
You used that one already in this thread. Something impairing your short term memory? ;)

Misquoted by the paper. My concern is that you are under the influence of THC for a longer term than with alcohol.
Broken link.

Not so - what stays in the body is inactive byproducts of THC, and THC stored in fat tissue that leaks back into the bloodstream so slowly it has no detectable effect.
The GOP needs to compete for their vote - which starts with taking the limited-government stand that marijuana should be legalized. There's ideology and then there's reality.
I have my opinions on pot legalization but I'll keep them to myself. The fact of the matter that putting a pot initiative on the ballot is going to bring out the habitual pot smokers who will overwhelmingly vote democrat. No amount of limited government talk by republicans will change that. Marijuana users are statistically much more likely than the average American to be unemployed and on public assistance which means they're usually going to vote democrat. You'd get the same turnout if you put an initiative to give extra money to single mothers for child care, the turnout would be heavily democratic voters. I'm not arguing the merits of pot one way or the other, the fact is that putting a measure about pot on the ballot at the same time as a national election is politically stupid for republicans. You can argue limited government all you want but habitual pot users are going to vote democrat for no other reason that democrats will give them more money to sit home and stay stoned.
Put term limits on Congress...
Pro-pot under 45 set think it is a cure for EVERYTHING!! The miracle plant! Guess they weren’t taught history i.e. snake oil sales in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
