Virginia, which for decades has sent thousands of people to jail for selling or using marijuana, is about to make it legal.

In a historic shift for this traditionally conservative Southern state, the General Assembly voted Friday to allow its possession, manufacture and sale.

We are being conditioned folks.

OR is doing the same thing - with hard drugs.

The Dems are getting people hooked on stimulus checks and other freebies.

Virginia politicos will decide if they want Virginia to join the other pothead state floaters swirling around the toilet bowl.

Be careful, it’s not legal to purchase or possess firearm if you are a user of pot, even if you have a medical card. In fact, a medical card just provides a means track users. If VA is going to allow recreational use, then that’s a much safer option vs being in a database as a medical user.

Notice how it’s always historic when it’s something Leftists
have wanted for a long time.

I thought Trump’s win in 2016 was historic.

It was reported as being tragic.

Now Biden is bringing the nation back from the brink. As if!

“the other pothead state floaters swirling around the toilet bowl.”

Like Alaksa, Montana, and South Dakota?

“agreeing with the Commiecrats.”

Even a blind pig finds an acorn once in a while. Marijuana prohibition is failing in all the same ways alcohol prohibition failed.

The knee jerk is nothing if not predictable, eh?

I know there are some tokers on Freepland but overall, this Pot push is not working out well for society and the only true “winner” is government.

That's exactly what it is. Soma.

Keep 'em stoned and happy and they'll create no problems.

The citizens in Alaksa, Montana, and South Dakota should be ashamed of their voters. Or perhaps votes on the initiative were counted on Dominion machines.

And the same way meth and crack prohibition will fail, right?

The desire to manage the choices of others is a hard habit to kick.
