I’d like to know EXACTLY what such bills propose. Stop with this “legalization” vagueness. Chances are, it’s anything but legalization.

The legislation is already generating a major buzz.

Most people don’t understand that Weed these days is right up there with LSD for THC potency.

It is so strong in plant form (30% THC or better) and some edibles, and drinks 50%+ and some vapes/dabs are near 100%. There is just about no regulation on it and kids are gobbling this up like candy...pun intended.

This isn’t your fathers/grandfathers 5% stuff from the 60’s. Back then you could smoke 10 or more joints a day. If you did that now your brain would be deep fried.

Legalizing cannabis is a HORRIBLE idea, period, especially at the Federal level.

Why it’s here: The poor, ignorant, and stoned are far easier to rule.

It’s that simple.

Legalizing the recreational use of marijuana is “very very bad” idea! Just don’t!

I wouldn’t say it’s good, but alcohol is far worse.
We saw how that worked out in the 20’s.

One of the top priorities of Soros and his allies.

A dumbed down population is easier to manipulate.

Of course much more dangerous to live around with the massive increases in brain damage and violent, schizophrenic behavior.

Only problem I see is we’re not going to walk back any of the Bill of Rights damage we’ve done on behalf of the WOD. No knock raids, OMNI asset confiscation, probable cause, and all that other crap will stay. I still want to see the WOD end, but the damage is here to stay.

So do major parts of Shitcago.

I'm so glad I live way outside that craphole and in a community where almost everyone is 55+ and no one smokes that crap.

It doesn’t matter whether it’s a good idea or not. This is about one thing only, tax revenue. Same as booze, cigs and gambling.

There’s a lot of money to be collected, so it WILL be legal. All other arguments are just gilding the lily.

This is the reason...

Yuval Harari, an Israeli philosopher who serves as an advisor to the World Economic Forum (WEF), has frequently warned of a growing class of “useless people.” According to the WEF advisor, the rise of artificial intelligence will give rise to billions of “useless people” who humanity will have to “deal with.” In order to address the growing number of so-called “useless people”, Harari suggests keeping them docile with drugs and video games.

Thomas McDermott, mayor of Hammond, Indiana and the Democrat nominee for the U.S. Senate, is actually running on this. A campaign ad has him crossing the border into weed-legal Illinois and lightning up a joint. (Rumor has it he likes harder stuff too.) The good news is that Indiana is a safe Republican seat.

Much as I despise the left in DC I agree that cannabis should be legal to have, grow & use to all adults over the age of 21.

I’ve been using it daily since 2015 with zero downside to help with sleep. Works beautifully for me & I have no complaints save for the cost.

The great thing about today’s cannabis being so much more powerful as the weed of the 1960’s is you don’t have to use as much to achieve the desired effect. Naysayers will continue to whine & moan but it is time we stopped the criminalization of all plants, period.

We are becoming China, ca. 1840. Does anyone really think that the Chinese aren't encouraging our drug legalization trend behind the scenes? They know well what happens when a country's citizens are eaten up with narcotics.

In our modern day scenario, we are Qing Dynasty China, and Red China is Victorian-era Britain.

A Disturbing Look Inside The Victorian Opium Dens That Launched The First Modern War On Drugs

Opium use in China's major cities was a scandal in the late 19th century. Now, think of Kensington Avenue in Philadelphia. We are becoming what the Qing Dynasty was before it's collapse.
