Pot legalization effort moves eastward to Maine
FoxNews.com/AP ^ | 10/18/20163

Advocates of recreational marijuana use are looking to an upcoming vote in Maine as an indicator of whether the East Coast is ready to follow in the footsteps of Colorado and Washington by legalizing cannabis.

Voters in Portland are being asked whether they want to make it legal for adults 21 and over to possess -- but not purchase or sell -- up to 2.5 ounces of pot. The Nov. 5 vote is being eyed nationally as momentum grows in favor of legalizing marijuana use.

Yeah, we liberals actually dare to refer to the love of God shed liberally abroad (I much more explicitly than Ghost, but still even Ghost is at least aware of what you cannot see past your nose).

you seem lost.

Now I pointed out to you about magic mushrooms as you said weed is just a plant but you can’t equate the two because of what YOU WANT.

When I say lost I mean you were banned on here, you come back as another name and still think this is a liberal website, sorry in your case a liberaltarian site.

HiTech RedNeck:
1. I would REALLY be worried if you agreed with me. Thank you. Nothing HiTech about you except your ability to make NASTY on the web.

2. Also you have the unmitigated GALL to judge ME about receiveing the love of God. Who are YOU to judge how, when, where and why God gives His love to me? Wow, you have put some of those seven deadly ones to full use, I think. Lol. Imagine YOU assuming that I don't know God's love.

I merely point out that you display all the signs of refusing the love. God is shining His love at you right now. YOU are saying no to it.

As a math major, I know that alcohol is poison (but I still love beer)...and pot would turn our world into mindless dullards if everyone smoked it. But everyone won't...and social Darwinism will still reign.
Probably not a bad idea to make driving under the influence illegal tho.

Well put.

You would have recognized the nature of sex sin at once if you really knew that love any more than nominally skin deep. What change has Jesus made in YOUR life? I dare you. He rescued me from deep, deep sin.

A drunk will run a stop sign. A pothead stops and waits for it to turn green.

Hahaha! Thanks for the laugh. SO true!

You bring up the point that breaks most of my beliefs. With a government coddling the bad decision makers (at the behest of damn near gun-point against the tax payers), none of us can actually be free. The best I can tell at this point is it will take a complete collapse of government so personal liberties can be restored. Other than that everyone is going to want their own personal interest imposed by? (dingdingding) government and the cycle keeps repeating.

I dare you... tell me where God has given you beauty for ashes! That can actually be seen, not that just you fancy!

Well, you have to admit...life gets complicated when the freedom of choice is involved.

It SHOULDN'T be complicated. The ten commandments are NOT the ten suggestions. All our life fits into those COMMANDMENTS.

I was banned because I advocated for leaving people alone in the privacy of their own homes and or properties. You don’t need to know my former screen name; my principles are true and are of such that you tap dance around them with inane requests. Debate my points or shuffle along and lurk, you have much, much to learn about liberty at this point.

Ghost you are right about liberty as far as you go, but I would warn you not to stop. Keep going to the object of liberty, the same object that the liberty of 1776 sought. The good Lord. That was why the colonies bade the king of England farewell.

I like your tag, too. Governments that are treated as idols (for whatever excuse) are abominations.

Umm...I distinctly called out a plant and a fungi. I also distinctly called out the individual and their choices. Its not my fault you cannot wrap your tiny little brain around that. As well, your attempting to use projection on me as to what I do and do not want is telling into and of itself. I will say I do like to take walks in the woods looking for oaks with hen of the woods afoot, but I don’t expect someone like you who still overlooks how ironic it is that we sell poison at 151 proof legally to twenty one year olds safe. But sleep well tonight little sheep, government has your back and there are things you have spoon fed to be evil that are still illegal and help fuel entire police department narc unit’s budgets by means of asset seizures and telling YOU you cannot have more cash on you at any given time, OR ELSE.

Yep the inside of an evil idol is... evil. And it does what its satanic master does... kill, steal, destroy.

The good Lord is more than salvation from the hell to which the world is going. He is great victory and triumph.

Some conservatives apparently are being conservative for Baal.
