No way kids can handle all the new potency and the myriad related thc products. Say hello to a generation of lazy comatose bums. That’s ok the waves of immigrants will be happy to join them. 😀

legalize marijuana on the November ballot in five more states”

The rats have perfected getting Dem turnout initiatives on November ballots. Legalizing weed is one of their favorites

This is not your hippy weed. Now that they have government license to grow it commercially, they cross breed new strains to generate extremely, unnaturally high levels of THC - and very low levels of CBD. It’s out of balance. It will make people insane.

It is like RKBA is for the right. To the people it matters to, it matters more than any other issue.

It’s a state’s rights issue if ever there was one. If we legalized it at the federal level, it would cut down Democratic turn out quite a bit, just as if the Democrats were smart, they’d completely throw in the towel on guns and there would be a hell of a lot fewer ‘republicans’ bothering to vote.

Ive smoked my fair share of pot over the years and I can say it has never, even once, alleviated pain.

“No no… I’ve been told by leftists that smoking pot is perfectly healthy and has no side effects and won’t even affect your lungs because it’s all organic, not like tobacco which is horrible for you and must be stamped out!”


I had a real close friend who basically believed the same BS.

I still miss him some 20 years after his death from something akin to lung cancer...

He was in his 40’s...

Yeah, I don’t think it really does either, though it has helped me get to sleep when I had pain that was bad enough to keep me up all night otherwise.

“Now that they have government license to grow it commercially, they cross breed new strains...”

Except the cross breeding has been going on for decades even before it was legal. Either the hippie growers would pass around their own clones on the black market, or people would get hybrid seeds from Holland or British Columbia. Most of the new “commercial” hybrids are just refinements of breeds that were produced in the 70s-90s.

Probably part of the problem of why we have so many homeless.

You depict the wealthiest man and also the most competent American businessman around.

If you could accomplish one millionth of what Elon Rusk has accomplished you would be a rich man.

Not schizophrenic but certainly can diagnose and treat it.

Only the limited think that one has to be one in order to understand one. Sort of like BLM.

Ditch weed has always been ditch weed, and if you still buy from Mexican cartel-connected dealers, you will still get plenty of ditch weed even today.

And hydroponics and hybridization wasn’t suddenly invented when this stuff started getting legalized.

But I think the general rule to keep in mind is: if people are trying to get “high”, then they’ll keep smoking as much as they need to in order to get “high”. In the 70s that might have be 2 or 3 fat joints, and now it might be a one-hitter. Either way they’ll end up just as high as they want to be.
