The displayed data is for three years after the year in which they legalized. To get three years or more, wouldn't you have to be dealing? The magic of legalization is not reducing incarceration, so no savings there
If so many pointless arrests were due to otherwise innocents being persecuted for the Ganga, you think there would have been a decrease in incarcerations - which is what the bull**** claims that it will save money are based on
Is it just me, or do the same folks that want to criticize the "war on drugs," want to quickly separate marijuana from all other drugs?
Faith
Abolishment is the only viable option now.Yeah, I know. We need another round of welfare reform, but obviously that isn't going to happen.
If you don't like it, you could always move to Ohio.Has it occurred to anyone that democrats might prefer an electorate that is lazy, unmotivated, dependent and in a stupor for reasons other than their newfound 'support' of individual freedoms?
LTCH is not required to purchase a firearm.Instead of making it legal to buy in any corner stand, make people buy a license to purchase no different than our LTCH, fishing or hunting license? Add a nice little caveat that a valid pot license makes you ineligible for state social programs.
And raising money from big pharma at the same time, to change their mind! Win/win.My opinion, pandering by Democrats in a red state in an attempt to gain supporters any way they can.
The left is doing that as we speak.....We should start and promote making all mind altering intoxication not cool.
The anti-smoking campaigns have worked pretty well to make smoking no longer cool. Something along that line would do well to promote not altering people's mental status with any chemical.
Bottom line, we shouldn't change any laws. Just change attitudes about how to live life.
Wait we have kudzu in Hamilton county?!? I thought we were far enough north to not have it.I would consider a goat but the Kudzu is growing over from the neighbors property.
Maybe I will get them one.
You assume that those in favor of legalizing want it so they can legally consume it? I for one have never and have no desire to consume any drug in this context.The question that has not been answered:
How will YOU reply to the question on the 4473 if you engage in the illegal drug?
Easy, Freedom. The thing our country was founded on.It's easy to throw out all the canned "pro-weed" answers but how does one support the legalization of a mind altering drug responsibly?
Yep, it is a coping mechanism. They lack the courage to say it all.Is it just me, or do the same folks that want to criticize the "war on drugs," want to quickly separate marijuana from all other drugs?
I don't consider cannabis to pose the threat to society that the others do. Cocaine can still be prescribed as it does have medicinal use. To classify cannabis as a Schedule I, meaning it has no medicinal value is beyond ridiculous considering the overwhelming amount of evidence to the contrary.Is it just me, or do the same folks that want to criticize the "war on drugs," want to quickly separate marijuana from all other drugs?
It it becomes legalized I suspect that question will be dropped from the 4473.How will YOU reply to the question on the 4473 if you engage in the illegal drug?
States can do whatever but it still is a no-no with the federal law.

While you're at it, can you also mandate they can use other drugs, like say Ivermectin, if their doctor believes it can help them?At the very LEAST we should allow people to use it medically if their doctor believes it can help them.
