...I...see first hand all the social problems it brings into a town, even tho its suppose to be a "victimless crime"... This is largely due to its present illegality and the war on drugs. Don't engage Seafire on this. He'll go absolutely ballistic.

I have never been personally affected by it, so I don't much care.
My father in law has been personally affected by it and wants continued regulation. He makes some good points.
I am MAGA.

To the original post I think getting the Feds out of it is a great idea separate from any considerations one might have about the drug itself.
In social values areas like this I think the individual states should be the ones to control it or not as they see fit, not the Federal government with its inevitable one size fits all regulations.

Sure. Legalize weed. What the heck, just legalize all the low life habits: weed, heroin, moonshine, whores, incest, beastiality, man-boy love, and all the rest.
Let's just skip the slow slide becoming Europe-2 and go straight to it.

anyone ever seen the Internal Revenue Code.. it has something like 20 plus pages detailing the regulation and taxation of Marijuana.
go to a Federal Depository Library ( for those who know what they are) and one can look that sort of stuff up...
I'm 100% against the legalization of it....and live in an area that there is a sea of it being grown... and see first hand all the social problems it brings into a town, even tho its suppose to be a "victimless crime"......
but hey, even I know I am swimming against the tide...
it'll be legalized everywhere and once it causes enough problems like it does in this town and county, they'll start regulating it once again... It's heavily regulated everywhere it is legal.

Am I the only one getting sick of smelling all the potheads walking around? It does stink. Worse than cigarettes even. Honestly, the dipschits walking around sucking on their douche flutes smell much worse to me. Smells like vomit and grape soda. Don't even get me started on cigars......Not many around thankfully

I would much rather see the sale and distribution of weed, meth, pills, or opiates made a capital offense with summary execution upon conviction.

The war on drugs has worked out about as well as prohibition in the 20's. I think we would be better off putting $$ in slowing demand on the supply side, because shutting off supply has been a failure.

The problem is that the marijuana industry has convinced (simple minded) people that the drug is benign and even healthy. No one is being brainwashed to think alcohol and tobacco are health enhancement products.

Conservatives only subscribe to the idea of states' rights when it suits them. I'm never not surprised by the big government supporters here that are still fighting the civil war but are too hypocritical to realize the error of their ways when it comes to freedoms. The DEA is the biggest group of drug addicted criminals to ever exist but the truth matters not to the puritans and the temperance society they dream of. Some folks live in a fantasy world and are too dumb to understand the ineffectiveness of prohibition, even when history has proven it doesn't work.

People are going to do what people are going to do no matter what the gov't wants or says . As they say follow the money -THAT'S why the feds are deep into anything that turns a buck . The war on drugs has grown the govt and wasted hundreds of billions of dollars [your $] to no avail . Get the federal govenment inline with what the Constitution allows --nothing more ---> yes that's a stupid remark and of coarse it won't happen even 1% .

No one is being brainwashed to think alcohol and tobacco are health enhancement products. There ya go....... Not to mention the unemployability of one on drugs. Unemployable = no job, no job = unemployment, welfare, and more propensity to get involved in crime to make ends meet. Damn good road to head down.

This is worth supporting IMO, get the feds out of state business and save US taxpayers billions of dollars / year.... Absolutely. Drugs in general, in fact. No Constitutional authority to be involved in any of it. These are, Constitutionally speaking, strictly state matters.

Marijuana takes away motivation; plenty of that in America now.
