AP: Marijuana decriminalization bill to be offered in Congress

[baseline bum]

the decriminalization, needs to be fully legal and able to be transported across state lines so we can get good access to that Humboldt County smoke tbh.

What do you mean?

Pot was legal much of the last century.

Utah medical marijuana law would mean rabbits will be stoned all of the time, says DEA



Fairbanks said that at some illegal marijuana grow sites he saw "rabbits that had cultivated a taste for the marijuana. ..." He continued: "One of them refused to leave us, and we took all the marijuana around him, but his natural instincts to run were somehow gone."

Fairbanks is a part of the marijuana eradication team in Utah.

Eradication teams can be found all over our great nation, doing God's work:

Georgia police raided a retired Atlanta man's garden last Wednesday after a helicopter crew with the Governor's Task Force for Drug Suppression spotted su ious-looking plants on the man's property. A heavily-armed K9 unit arrived and discovered that the plants were, in fact, okra bushes.

PROS AND CONS:

Pro: Heavily armed DEA agents will raid farmers to stop the evils of cannabis (or su ious okra).

Cons: Rabbits who don't want you to harsh their mellow may roam the countryside and even let you pet them.

37% is a little more than 1/3, which ain't MUCH, and about what the Repug pres candidate will get in 2016.

If your was 37% longer or you were 37% smarter you might even be able to get laid.

Well....

A 37% increase of 0 is still 0....

It's stupid to legalize pot and not legalize and tax the whole process from production to distribution to retail. I like what they are doing with the Colorado model. They have had some bumps but for the most part it seems to be working.

i came back from uruguay recently and they went even further, the government controls production and distribution... and it doesnt produce or distribute anything over a year later
(actually the issue is a little more nuanced than plain old incompetent socialist govt, as there are still resistant parts of society and they are sabotaging the distribution quite well)

Im pretty sure ive read posts from you before complaining about economic liberty and the value of work, homegrowing should be legal, at the minimum for personal use, just like you would grow your own vegetables or livestock. i can live with a tax in theory, but you know that money isnt going where it should be anyways...

I wouldn't want a sin tax. Just the standard sales tax though would be great to bring a lot of money in. I could only go for government controlling production and distribution for the hard like coke, meth, heroin, etc though.

You keep saying this without any basis. Beyond a contempt for you there is not much of anything similar. He is your generation, white, and going by him saying "pussy eater" as an insult, likely gay. Sorry but taht does not match. Politically he supports the democrats while I do not. He goes to ultra liberal and communist sources while I go to CSM, Economist AJ, Foreign Policy etc.

He spams the board and uses as his personal database. He necros threads. The list goes on of behaviors that he is noted most for that are not in any way things that I do.

If you want to go round and round with him and make a fool of yourself then have at it but that has nothing to do with me beyond I find it funny.

Congress reins in Federal enforcement respecting medical marijuana:

Tucked deep inside the 1,603-page federal spending measure is a provision that effectively ends the federal government's prohibition on medical marijuana and signals a major shift in drug policy.

The bill's passage over the weekend marks the first time Congress has approved nationally significant legislation backed by legalization advocates. It brings almost to a close two decades of tension between the states and Washington over medical use of marijuana.


Under the provision, states where medical pot is legal would no longer need to worry about federal drug agents raiding retail operations. Agents would be prohibited from doing so.

A first step, but Schedule II MUST be changed sooner rather than later to OFF SCHEDULE, just like health-terrorist Al Cohol, killer-of-Americans.

Based on recent history, a prediction: House Repugs will attach anti-abortion, and/or anti-LGBT to the marijuana bill.
