It’s turned many Colorado towns into zombie land. New Mexico is in the process too. Fight it.
Marijuana is for cowards and liars and is destroying this country.
I’d support legalization of pot if it comes with getting rid of welfare programs.
What makes life so miserable that people want out of it by stupefying themselves even to the point of being drugged out, unemployable, homeless vagrants?
The alcohol industry is no different, except their product is more deadly by a series of magnitudes.
FIGHT. Legalization is bad and needs to be reversed.
Even cheech and chong understood what marijuana does to people
This being said, it's hard to deny that legal weed is a public nuisance. For one, the strains are an order of magnitude stronger than the crappy Mexican ditch weed I smoked as a college student in the 90s. And they're putting weed in everything! From beer to candy. This increases the risk of accidentally ingesting it and then losing your job because you popped on a drug test.
And where it's been legalized, smoke and vape shops are opening up everywhere and become conduits for crime and various shady people loitering about.
And finally, the public use of weed shouldn't have surprised me but it did. People smoke it openly everywhere with no regard to the laws prohibiting this, which aren't enforced anyways.
So, Idaho, this is what you've got to look forward to.
What’s up buddy? Hope you’re good. Here in NV you can’t even drive down the freeway without that skunk weed hitting you. Supposedly for home use only. I guess home is wherever you happen to be at that moment.
agreed!
Doing OK. There’s pot shops all over Albuquerque, and some are starting to go under due to market saturation. Fine with me. Hope you’re well.
Doing well thanks. Same in Reno but they seem to be doing well here. Oh well.
“What makes life so miserable that people want out of it by stupefying themselves even to the point of being drugged out, unemployable, homeless vagrants?”
Almost the exact same words as written by my mother. She sent her opinion to me while I served drug-free overseas in 1968.
(A letter I still have).
Those places that sell it have to charge 24% tax for the govt. at least here in Az they do. So the gov is making good money on it. I wonder where that money goes.
Libertarians. I hate those scumbags.
It’s a rough life.
If the Idaho Citizens did so, the result would be even more, much more, Californian moverinners storming the state border.
Potatoes won’t be the only things baked in Idaho.
It is a rough life but escapism is hopeless...to have hope you’re gonna need to be looking to a better day ahead and be able to recognize It Soberly.
