Waiting Skeleton

And the future

Marijuana became a schedule one drug during the Nixon era to help the government control the hippies and African-American populations. It's an easy bust, and can fill a prison with slave labor easily. Especially private prisons.

It will also cut down on the number of deaths in gang wars.

Hillary says more research has to be done, which is a crock.

Trump is for legalizing it for medical use.

Stein and Johnson are for across the board legalization.

I made that number up, but it's a lot.

I wouldn't be too sure. I know the number of marijuana users is high (no Pun intended) but your figure is probably low.

Keeping it illegal has done more harm than good. The amount of untaxable sales isn't chump change.

But Conservatives believe it is. My late mother in law would have benefited from it during chemo, but, even if it were legal here, it had the stigma of only dopers using it.

Hell, the amount of taxes it generates in Colorado is so high that they've actually started improving their schools.

And Colorado is just one example of success. It's being proven study after study how beneficial it is, how non-existent the side effects or drawbacks are, and more importantly, how full of shit the government has been about it all these decades.

I'll tell you what, it helps my Crohn's disease infinitely better than any pill the doctors give me.

Stigma shouldn't drive law. It's time to accept the fact it's a good plant and a billion times safer than alcohol.

Like I said, it's just a system to control people. It'll become legal in most states within the next 20 years, but you'll always have the indoctrinated that can't see its benefits.

Current studies are optimistic about its treatment in Alzheimer's.

No, legalization is the way we need to move, but it's going to have to happen on the state level.

Have another toke, you pathetic addicted loser.

Yeah, all my friends that smoke every day keep telling me that. And as the years go by, they sound remarkably less intelligent, definitely much lower ambition levels, they become losers. But they still smoke it... every day. Just like an addict.

Well I'm sorry my self destructive behavior triggered you so hard. Do you need to go to your safe space?

Sorry, it's the pussies like you that need a safe space and an addiction to hide from reality. But since you've been killing off brain cells on a wholesale scale, it's not surprising you can't tell that it would be candy asses like you that would be triggered and retreating to a safe space. You probably have the mental agility of a third grader and start every sentence with "Hey, man..."

You seem so angry. You want to talk about it?
