Federal Legalization of Cannabis

Republican Lawmakers filed a bill to tax and regulate Cannabis as an alternative to the Democratic Proposals. This would remove its schedule 1 status and make it legal federally. Fingers Crossed. It's long past overdue. What do y'all think?
  • Keep it illegal.

    State legalization with Fed Prohibition makes local police leave these local street level business people alone. 5-0 doesn't care as long as you aren't pushing hard drugs. Dispensaries are too expensive anyways.

    In MA, you pay approx. 20% on top of the fact that EVERYHING is outrageously priced to begin with. I'm talking individual joints for $15-$20 lmfao. Removing it from Schedule 1 would allow them to go in and add an additional 10% or so on top.
  • I got a 2 week vacation without pay a couple of years ago for having some candy on a Saturday on my own time........ As I look at a few hung over people at work that drink every night of the week....

    I always said if I'm ever in a car wreck. I would rather be hit by a person who is high, over a person who is drunk, simply because a person who is drunk thinks he or she is driving 55, when in reality they are driving 105, where a person who is high thinks they're doing 55, in reality they're doing 15.
  • Yeah when I was 16 ( I'm now a bit older and somewhat wiser... ) I took my moms car out when I shouldn't have been driving....... Started pushing buttons.... Next thing I know I look down and I'm doing 120.... holy balls.......just hammer on the brakes down to 55 ....... Everyone is now honking at me and passing me like mad....... yeah , switched the electronic display from MPH to KPH......
  • I think that legalizing cannabis will hurt the cartel. Maybe this is just a Texas/Southern perspective but the cartel needs to be stopped and the border need help and I think legalizing cannabis could help.

    IDK I am not really well versed in this but I know it is a big problem.

    Wow. Honestly never really thought about that aspect of it. 100% though. It also could have the opposite adverse effect. The void left by the MJ could be filled by harder drugs due to the decrease in $$ made by the cartel.

    All of my motives for legalizing it are mainly selfish. I just want something to help me sleep, relieve my anxiety, combat my aches and pains from the military that doesn't require a prescription and wont leave me with a hangover the next day.

    Its also a hell of a parental enhancer. I become a much more engaging father when I do. I am able to sit down with my kids and play with barbies or spiderman toys and not feel the constant need to pull away and take care of other stuff. I am also much more patient with them when it comes to just the day to day. But because of current employment I've had to break off my relationship with my dearest green.

    I am not a partaker of the wacky tobaccy, but maybe if it was legal I would think about it.

    I would not think about it, I'd do it so I can get off of antidepressants (prescribed).
