The Drug Enforcement Administration is expected to approve an opinion by the Department of Health and Human Services that marijuana should be reclassified from the strictest Schedule I to the less stringent Schedule III. It would be the first time that the U.S. government has acknowledged its potential medical benefits and begun studying them in earnest. [...]

“Addictive chemicals like THC destroy the ability to make choices. That’s addiction.”
.
Ditto for alcohol.

Gaslighting. We’re talking about weed, not something else. Bringing up something else is the definition of gaslighting.

Liberal falsehood.

“Child prostitution and theft have non-consenting victims; cannabis use doesn’t.”

Ever walked down NYC or Denver and get a contact high?

You’re posting a Biden accomplishment as a good thing on here, a leftwing thing. That’s not me gaslighting btw, you are pushing that as a good thing that democrats are winning .

Leftism -> pot use -> more leftism -> more post use.

We all know this here I think, you gotta pay jimrob a lot to keep this nonsense paid ad up.

I don’t want to smell it. Anyone that doesn’t, should be able to use extreme and lethal force to compel others not to. If they chew weed like a neanderthal in their place, I guess that’s ok in theory, but still.. Singapore, I think most conservatives, agree has the right method of dealing with drug s.

The rope.

Yeah, DU loves anti-weed stuff. LOL. Weak as it gets.

I’m saying don’t use drugs, ban them, kill users and dealers. You think that’s what DU wants? Hahah.

Again, look at the blue and marijuana states. Spreads, don’t it.

First comes the weed, then the legalization, then the blueness.

Red states HAVE to fight this nonsense.

“Gaslighting. We’re talking about weed, not something else.”

YOU said “Addictive chemicals” - alcohol is one.

“you push it to the rest of the world.”

No more than I “push” alcohol by supporting its legality.

What I push is a federal government not exceeding its Constitutional authority; and ending a “war” that manifestly can’t be won without our becoming a Third World police state.

“Even if legal, the culture doesn’t really want it ‘legal’. They want to go behind the scenes and buy it illegally.”

Most legal weed stores do brisk business.

When the country keeps falling and gets worse and worse, largely and directly due to weed relaxation laws, will you ever admit in your dying days ‘oh, shit, I got high all that time and it made everything worse!’

Naw, you’ll go ‘damn, we got all that THC high and we BTFO those normmies!!!’

My “challenged” neighbors are now smoking it often, yesterday it was before 8am, and regularly they smoke it with their underage child. Maryland's roads stink of it and drivers are intense and aggressive. Crime is everywhere. It's a mistake to legalize it.
