    Opium poppies come from god [God] as well. Nice. I should start growing some

    Marijuana is an issue the Repubs should embrace.


    Real progressives have always loved prohibition.

    So does cocaine and shrooms. I like where this is going.

    Seems as though god wanted us to have a cornucopia of pleasurable drugs -- why do the republicans hate pleasures provided by god?

    PS, saying it's a "state issue" is the biggest fucking cop out answer these days.

    Disagree.

    Need more states rights kinds of things. You don't want to smoke dope legally, move to a state where it's possible. You want to have an abortion, trek over to a state where that's allowed. Want to shoot assault rifles and pack heat, pack your bags for Texas or Wyoming or someplace where that's part of their culture/laws.

    Same concept as a business makes on whether to put a factory in this state or that. Weight the pros and cons. If you don't like it, don't go there or, if you do, LEAVE!


    Clear case of abundance. From a legal and governance standpoint, it's absolutely a states' rights issue. Politically, those answers were punts.
    Fucking THIS.

    We were LONG overdue for a weed thread. I'm sorry Race is under the Dictatorship of Fuhrer Brown. Maybe you need to come home where it's legal? But, not everybody does it. I don't like it. I never did. Everybody else is welcome to do whatever they want.

    Thanks for that hot take, Mitt. And why doesn't everyone just borrow $10,000 from their parents and start business?

    Despite the fact that you've never actually been poor there are still poor people. People that live pay check to pay check. People that can't afford to just pick up their whole life and leave. And their rights aren't worth less than yours.

    If this is the logic behind more states rights then it's pretty clearly class warfare. Rich people have the right to live however they want and poor people are fucked.

    But how do you worship money?

    Sorry, fella..smoking dope is no more of a right than having sex with farm animals. Its a deliberate activity. It may be sanctioned by the state as allowable or not but it has nothing to do with economic status.

    WTF does being deliberate have to do with anything?

    You should be allowed to do whatever you want so long as it doesn't have an adverse effect on someone else or their property. It's a natural right.

    Congress needs to change weed from whatever schedule number it is that makes it a dangerous narcotic. That is what is interfering with the states that legalize and have medicinal MJ. The president could lead, Congress could act, but they are all a bunch of pussies.

    Everybody does it. (Hi Little Jimmy Cornell)

    It's still not deprivation of rights based on wealth or class standing.

    Yeah - it's based on being a controlling cunt who thinks they're in charge of everyone else's lives.
