[BreezyDog]

I’m going to vote yes. Do you still want me to FReep it?

[SJSAMPLE]

Thanks.
I voted YES.

I get the “legalize part, but the “tax” and “regulate” is ridiculous.

You can grow the stuff in your bedroom. So much for taxing and regulating. And THAT is why it was made illegal.

A lot of products that people buy in stores are things they could grow (or make) themselves. Convenience has market value.

Hell/Handbasket, why not?

[bgill]

No

Portland = “Po’tland” :) (pronunciation)

I agree, but that “convenience” might mean buying it, tax-free, from the guy (kid) next door. And the stuff you buy locally might be more potent than any government-blessed stuff at the store. Think about the old limitations on beer across the US.

I'm not familiar with the old limitations on beer across the US - I am sure that the untaxed guy-next-door market in beer is negligible.

Dude...nobody wants to give me a job but it's still cool cuz I got my bennies!

[JustSayNoToNannies]

Hell/Handbasket

Legality of the addictive mind-altering drug alcohol hasn't sent us to Hell in a handbasket - why would legality of marijuana do so?

[JustSayNoToNannies]

No

Why not?

[ari-freedom]

“Ah , Marijuana Liberal Brain Food”

It will keep them dumb and numb while Obama takes over the rest of their lives.

[Dead Corpse]

Yes 70%.
No 30%.

Voted yes.

Caveat... Make drug testing mandatory for any and all welfare/socialist benefits. Pop positive on a pee quiz and the money tap gets shut off.

Wanna sit around being a stoner? Fine. Don’t do it on my dime...

“Wanna sit around being a stoner? Fine. Don’t do it on my dime...”

ahahaha there’s a reason why liberals want to legalize pot. Nothing to do with freedom.

[Veto!]

Actually, alcohol has sent plenty of people into a kind of hell, arguably of their own making, but few drinkers set out to be alcoholics or killers of small children in auto accidents. The stuff can be lethal, adds billions of dollars in harm costs to state budgets (hospital, police etc).

So why would anyone want to add another legal mind/judgement altering substance to the mix? The day after it was voted “legal” in WA state, a stoned kid had an accident that injured six others, a couple critically. It’s just the beginning.

[GSWarrior]

Another vote for "Yes." And I don't even live in Maine.

Isn't the internet wonderful?
