Pot decriminalization without legalization

[CosmicCowboy]

That just seems dumb as shit. Cartels will love that. Business will boom.

[Winehole23]

that it would even be considered in Texas is newsworthy.

this is Texas related, right?

Booming cartels means more $$$ for the agencies that engage in the perpetual drug war. Also plenty of fresh meat for private prisons.

Both, actually. Texas is pretty much a lost cause. It will probably be the last state in the union to go recreational.

Decriminalization only applies to the ones carrying small amounts, correct? Not the dealers. In any case, Texas is throwing a ton of tax revenue away because of their backwards stance on pot and gambling.

Yeah, but fear of repercussions of a pot arrest history has kept a lot of people from seeking out the underground outlets. Take that fear away without a legal source and the cartels will boom.

Besides, the future of pot is not as much in smoking flower but in the edibles, etc. Leave that to the cartels and there is no fucking way you can know what you are consuming, just like the heroin junkies dying like flies from fentanol ODs..

No kidding on the gambling. All the people in DFW who drive to Winstar to gamble are massive tax revenue that Texas is throwing away.

We'll be a little ahead of Mississippi.

Same with the people on the eastern border in the Houston area. It's a fairly short trip to Lake Charles to get their gambling fix in.

Yeah when I lived in DFW I made the drive to Shreveport a few times just to mix it up, but the poker players at Winstar were so much worse that going to Winstar was the common sense thing to do financially :lol

Actually Mississippi is way ahead of us. They passed their referendum in November and will have a full blown medical program out by July.

Was about to post this. Oklahoma, South Dakota, and others are light years ahead too. Shameful.

Fuck me, when Mississippi is more progressive that our state...

Dan Patrick is a fucking reefer madness dinosaur and shuts everything down in the senate.

[DMC]

People who hold on to the dogma of grandpa's morality like an anchor falling into the abyss should be voted out of office. There's no science behind so much shit that happens in these states.

The state leadership of this state is an abortion between him, governor hot wheels, and the AG under FBI investigation.
