Supposedly the governor will veto it. Hopefully she's as serious as Obama was about vetoing NDAA. How pot isn't legal is insane.

[goldfly]

so the governor of the "Live free or die state" will veto this?

way to live up to your motto

Merica, where words are just catch phrases now and don't actually mean anything

It's funny that liberals support people's individual liberty to smoke pot (as do I)… but mock me when I want that applied to everything

Umm wut?

[Krgrecw]

Not to go off topic but why are the pro-legalization proponents not pro legalizing all drugs?

Why just weed? Shouldn't I have a choice as an adult to do what I want with my body?

I do support the legalization of all drugs.

We just draw funny distinctions, like thinking that perhaps it's ok to have the choice to inhale marijuana smoke, but less cool to NOT have a choice about inhaling industrial pollutants.

Marijuana is much less harmful than most illegal and legal drugs.

Yeah but the others have more medicinal value. Hell, I tried to get Meth from my doctor last week for weight loss.


I'm not pro-legalizing pot btw.

[thethe]

It still doesn't compare to the many different positives that have been discovered with marijuana.

Not sure how I feel about it btw. I go back and forth.

[sturg33]

I can't for the life of me understand why anyone supports the idea of letting some bureaucrats tell you what you can and can't do. I'm all for laws - but the laws I support are for protecting individual liberty. In other words, if you want to snort cocaine, have at it. I draw the line when your liberty interferes with another's liberty.

All drugs were legal in this country until close to the mid 1900's. We did ok with that.

For the record, I also support other things being legal such as prostitution, *** marriage, polygamy, not wearing your seat belt, etc. In other words, I don't support any law that tries to protect people from themselves.

The positives from weed, can't you find those positives in other places? Weed works no better for a headache than Bayer does. I don't believe there are any medicinal benefits from weed that you can't get anywhere else. Cocaine has medical uses. Heroin has medical uses. Meth is the best weight loss drug on the market there is. But what does weed offer than you can't get at a local drugstore or with a script?

Weed isn't bad for you though. Pain killers are. Why are you against it?

Are you really going to compare the negatives from heroin to marijuana?

Cocaine, Meth, and Heroin are all highly addictive. Marijuana has plenty of potential for many illnesses.

Pot has little risks and high rewards. Big Pharma drugs often carry dangerous side effects.

I do love the hypocrisy from both sides though...

Republicans are for small government! Unless it's for drugs, marriage, abortion, and defense!

Democrats are for big government! Unless it's for drugs, marriage, abortion, and defense!

Actually wouldn't big government for marriage mean them making same-sex marriage a federal law would be the "one size hat fits all" instead of delegating that responsibility to the states?

How about abortion? And on defense I think Democrats want a strong military like every sane person, they just acknowledge the huge wastes in military spending atm.

[zitothebrave]

It's not that simple. Republican's claim to be pro-small government but really just like government to only control what they want them to control. Dems want government benefits but to keep human rights to an extreme.

do you actually believe this crap you are spewing?

i mean, you are arguing mad made crap that has other bad side effects is better than the natural wild growing drug that has very little side effects

[yeezus]

I still cannot understand why people think it should be illegal. There is too much proof that says it would be a good thing and that the fact that it's illegal is a bad thing for the people of our country. I do not find that debatable.
