Texas will be one of the last holdouts. Eventually they'll have to follow suit once the other states are selling. That's a lot of tax dollars TX will be missing out on when everybody is crossing the borders to stock up.
If it happens, Texas will probably be the last state it happens in.
However I have heard that the Texas Democrats met in Houston last month and called for decriminalization rather than legalization.
See what I mean?
At a time when most other states law makers want to end the prohibition completely, not just for medical reasons, but for pleasure, ours want to still make it fineable!

If Texas gets someone as governor that isn't a Bible thumper or neo-con then I would say soon. Texas is more liberal than people think it is.
NY and California will be the first states to legalize weed if it's going to happen. Those states always running afront the trend imho. With marijuana legalized in both states my goddess will be able to buy it from legal sources both when she's at home or making films in cali, imho. Weed ain't legal in France and there's no chance of it being legalized anytime soon over there, hope the legalization of marijuana will draw her back home.![]()
just imagine the amount of revenue Texas would get out of it. the borders will be better secured as well, and violence along the borders would be nil.
of course, the boomer generation will hold out as long as it can. good ol' boys playing to the liquor lobbyists.
It will probably be one of the last states to catch on, but it will be legal across the country sooner than later. Seattle has really helped the public opinion on weed lately, tbh .
Should be now..but I agree with most..Texas will be near last. Many will be watching what happens in Colo. after recreational use is allowed
Washington and Colorado already did.
It will be legal and regulated in the US in my lifetime tbh
you realize that states have already done this right?
Didn't know that there were states who'd passed such laws, thanks for the info. Melo must be wishing he was still playing in Denver, imho.
Doesn't matter to me. I already fired up.
Man, I hope you're right, but I seriously doubt it will in my lifetime.
Good for you, just be careful if you're in Texas.
And stuffing their faces!![]()
(even medical) mj legal in TX?
alcohol ain't even 100% legal in most of TX and some places 100% illegal.

TX is a state where Thomas Jefferson is to be excluded from American History text books because he saw USA as a secular govt (not as a Christian theocracy), and slavery downplayed, euphemize, or excluded
TX is one of the ass-backward, regressive Confederate red-states that elects flaming assholes like Ted Cruz to the Senate.

Well, I wouldn't go quite that far, but you are right about alcohol, just drive through Dallas sometime, or East Texas and there is proof of that.
Austin, Dallas, Houston, and San Antonio are pretty liberal and usually blue.
legalizing (medical) marijuana must be a TX state law (Repug state legislatures hate Fed laws but are authoritarian, controlling towards its own cities and counties), and TX govt is deeply, probably irreversibly retrograde Repug, with a thoroughly nasty dollop of Bible-thumping.
Arkansas only narrowly voted down a medical marijuana proposition in the last cycle
It's probably not as far off as most would think
as long as the whites have willy nelson showing them its ok then i think it will be fine. alot of texas country music is starting to have mention of it. so when that happens it will get more popular among the republicans
The only problem with that is they keep busting Willie for weed. He is an American icon, and at his age, they should just leave the old man alone, he's not hurting anyone!
no boss around today, so i'm gonna go toke in my truck and ponder this question a bit...
it's only being considered because more white boys are being caught![]()
It makes too much sense for Texas to do it.
