it is not addictive where opioids are
If you can't grow this plant at home you are not free
You idiots don't know the law's and how they apply to you . Obama legalized it in Washington D.C. . When the state charges you , they get their jurisdiction from Washington D.C. and you being a United States citizen . So the law's of Washington D.C. apply to the territorial States citizens . This is how they get jurisdiction , if they don't use the territorial jurisdiction then your sovereign and they can't charge you . If they use your citizenship , then Washington D.C.law applies and Obama legalized it ! Next time you get high learn the law's which dictate everything in your life ! Dam !
medical marijauna., wtf is that…no such thing…
Seems to be more pros than cons. They need to stop jacking around and legalize it across the board.

Black or not. It needs to be legal.
why are we still using the word marijuana. cannabis
why is the guy from stranger things on here
i am very tired of the trumps administration out of touch position on weed. it is time to decriminalize it all the way and remove it from scheduale ones. most people dont think you should be denied employment or be put in jail or have your life ruined or your property confiscated or have a civil asset forfeture done on you over some pot. good people don't go against the will of the people they obey them. we were not born to bow down to dictatorship like jeff sessions glad to see his ass gone. who wants to be gone next? we a people will get rid of each and every single last one of you. keep it up and lets just see what happens.
Trump will use legalization as a campaign leverage. Then not do it.
The guest at the round table is only 15,he just had a rough night.🤔
RIP to Indiana, gonna be 20 years before the shits legalized here smdh
white people ,law enforcement wanna lock up black people at any cost
"go to the store on the corner and get it" Idiot…. Yet it can go to the corner store and get a bottle or government pills… Man made alcohol, God made pot, who do you trust
It has Nothing to do with black and White. It's more about the rich and poor. I'm white and have had 3 tickets for $1000 each for possession of a g. There's a reason why you have to fill out a sheet of your net worth when you go to court…..
What about all the hundreds of thousands of deaths caused by marijuana
The children!!!
They just need to legalize this shit. For real. It’s not bad and to see that then go smoke a joint and find out. It’s different for everyone but not harmful. I just want it for my ADHD and ADD problems.. it’s so bad that I can’t even read when a movie is playing because it distracts me or even any background noise but when I smoke im able to read and comprehend what I’m reading. The point is it helps me learn and helps me stay focused. I’m sure others can agree
not making it legal causes more harm and many people cant see it
BUT… their is no racism in aneriKKKa & the KKKops treat blacks with much respect.
APPARENTLY, THIS IS FAKE NEWS.
Who was the high level person who started the movement for legalizing it back in the 70's/80's – arguing that the benefits wud mostly b taxes/economic = Univ of Chicago's prof Friedman. However, the word was Friedman was part of a cabal of nefarious 'ppl' wanting to continue to undermine the U.S. social fabric in order to control it n in order to do that the dumbing down of the American citizenry needed to continue past the simpleton memorization system of education n pop culture – that drugs too shud b available to the American youth n older generations n they decided that having a constantly high dumbed down public wud b perfect n MJ was the perfect culprit to get us there.
An animal in the form of a human, bestially fascinated with its own intelligence — my portrait of a person high on marijuana.
Very fine discussion, but marijuana shouldn't be legalized. Instead, it should be totally decriminalized, for there was never any justification in illegalizing it to begin with. Short of the proper decriminalization, legalization evidently is better than criminalizing people for being in possession of this plant; but, decriminalization would be the correct way to go. And I don't care about the "average" person also selling marijuana. The govt only wants your tax dollars to pay for its wars and other crimes. The govt too much is like a criminal racket. On a small scale, enough for several weeks at a time a few times per year, I was once in the business and did absolutely nothing wrong to anyone. The govts would've canned my butt, if the govts found out about what I did and caught me in the act, but that's govts, and I trust myself a heck of a lot more than I could trust the govt(s). It's only marijuana, "for crying out loud"; nothing wrong with it, unless allergic to it, and I've never known anyone who was allergic to this plant, though to other things, which marijuana consumption greatly help them with; but, it's a great medicinal and therapeutic herb, It's very helpful for many people, and it shouldn't only be legalized for medicine, for while some people can tend to consume it recreationally, as I did, it still had very good therapeutic effect (or affect?) for me. It's dumb voters who repeatedly "elect" jerks for political representatives who constitute a serious problem for society, and far from only about marijuana. "Elect" jerks and that's what'll happen. The govt is full of very serious criminality, and there's too much incompetence, as well.
The Neo-Liberal Legalization is just to perpetuate Corporate Capture of every commodity. The Permit Bribe system of California put 98% of the small cannabis providers out of business and gave it to Global Capitalist Corporations. The Progressives dropped the ball so far on the legalization of cannabis.

They'll Legalize Cannabis When the Pharmaceutical Conglomerate has Cornered the Market and Genetically Modified the Product. Welcome to Corporate Fascism!
when you smoke you notice patterns, when you notice patterns you see conspiricys, and our FED overlords dont want the general popluation to know what they shouldn't know.
Somehow, Congress is able to break through its gridlock to cut taxes for the wealthy, raise the Defense budget to its highest level in history, maintain marijuana as a Class One substance under Dick Nixon's legacy War on Drugs, and threaten Venezuela with a military invasion. When they put their minds to it, the leaders of the two major parties are able to legislate as if they were responsible to the same constituency, the special interests. God Bless Them!
Jeff sessions is a peice of meat!!!!
US laws are ridiculously stupid.
