    Not there yet, but the roundtable seemed to think that the legalization of marijuana is coming. John Podesta even suggested (in jest?) taxing marijuana could be a way to pay for health care. The times they are a-changin’.

      it will not be legal until all plants have the strain designed long ago by the cia mixed in. they are almost ready and have been hard at work with this for decades. weed of the 60’s and earlier was nothing like anything you smoke today.

      smoker Reply:

      Yeah, the weed of the 60s was trash compared to the awesome nuggets you can find today! Are you kidding me? Ask anyone who was alive and smoking in the 60s who is still alive and smoking today; you can’t even compare the two. And if the CIA really did make these awesome new strands, it might be the best thing they’ve ever done.

      hehe Reply:

      hydroponics and an improved ability to grow pot is another reason it is better these days.
      You can still get strains now that were around in the sixties and they were good and potent.
      It is not really that much stronger than it used to be. Your grandpa was just getting ripped off.LOL.

      The stuff in the 70’s didn’t make people paranoid, but then the plants weren’t treated that way either – they had clouds, they had gradual wake ups and sundowns, instead of sudden total darkness and sudden total light.

      FreedomLover Reply:

      LOL – I’m for legalizing it due to the amount of killing that goes on in the drug cartels, but how far are they going to go once they start down that slippery slope? Corruption doesn’t stop until it has run the full course of its evil and there is no further it can fall.

      slippery slope??? I still dont see what people having the LIBERTY to choose what they put in their bodies has to do with skiing. it has nothing to do with good or bad right or wrong!!!!!!!!!!! its about not having to answer to others ideas about the way one should live. if you want to go out and shoot up herion all day until you die —go ahead. but you should not be put in prison for it. crime follows you say?? crime follows the black market, not the substance. just look at alcohol. education and good morals from those that care about you should affect your choices, not the threat of jail, or giving all your money to the system.

      Don’t fall victim to their GMO foods in the first place, or their poisonous vaccines, and you won’t have a need to be on ANY medications. Most of what happens to us that results in the need for these “medications” comes from what we put in our bodies in the first place!

      They will never make it legal. People are waking up as it is.

      Just imagine what would happen the next day after the scales had dropped off the eyes of half the population who just got stoned for the first time.

      It would allow the population to become unhypnotized.

      Kristi Reply:

      Yes I did smoke. No I don’t anymore. And everyone I know who smokes (I don’t know YOU so calm down) has nothing else to do with their time BUT smoke. Chill out.

      My fiance doesn’t smoke anymore either. He got injured on the job and piss tested- put on warning. If he gets caught again, who is gonna support our family?

      Then you go and legalize it. You want a Dr performing surgery on you while blazed out of your mind? You want to be onboard an airplane after the pilot just toked up?

      I actually have a close friend who died as a teenager at the hands of his BROTHER who was driving while he was high.

      Anyone who says weed should be legal is in a different reality than me, therefore, I can’t even argue with you about it lmfao……….

      Seriously, I see you as being mistaken, not a bad person.

      Let me advise while we address why you are so uptight.

      Why don’t you come and hang-out, we could discuss any feelings you might be having.

      Mr H. Reply:

      Dumbass!!! There is just as much a chance that a Dr could be drunk as that is legal. And if a Dr smokes, do you really feel that he is morally going to go to work to perform an operation? I mean come on. I have never not been able to get weed because it’s illegal. In other words , if it were made legal, morals don’t just go flying out the window. Besides, I ‘d rather a Dr or pilot be High than drunk. And why aren’t you protesting alcohol? How do you stand going to the Dr’s? what if your Dr is drinking on the side? Get real people!!!! The entire issue surrounding weed being legal is money. Making it legal takes the profit out of the hands of the corrupt leaders at the top that are and have been profiting and gives it to the government as a whole or perhaps just different corrupt people. There’s too much money to be had by keeping it illegal. In fact, when a raid is performed on someone and they era found to have drugs and cash and all of their stuff is seized, the seized stuff is sold at auction and the cash is absorbed and the profits from the auction go where???? Thats right…….to the police department that made the arrests and seizure. So you see there is an incentive for the police. The police cheifs get larger pensions. Then there is the issue of where the drugs that are seized go…… I know the police hold the drugs for the court case as evidence but where do they all go after that? My guess is that some are disposed of for PR and the rest are moved on up the ladder and then resold or somehow reinjected back into society to start the whole thing all over again. WEED IS NOT THE PROBLEM IN THE WORLD AND NEVER WAS!!!

      truthseeker Reply:

      Get real! This would be no different than alcohol. Same rules should apply. No drinking on the job, no drinking and driving. This is called BEING RESPONSIBLE.
      Legalizings greatest pro argument is that it would help put the drug cartels out of business, just like the end of Prohibition did. That means saving lives in places like Mexico.
      The right to pursuit of happiness is the right to get high. That doesn’t mean you have to become a drunk.

      kristi, anyone could just as easily be drunk on the job or loaded off prescription meds. It’s ridiculous to think that pot smokers are somehow different and don’t have self control. I know that if I had something important to do I’m not gonna do it stoned outa my mind. Sorry about your friend, but please just think logically about it.

      FreedomLover Reply:

      That’s the issue. Self-control. If we thought about our fellow planet-dwellers before we went out and made asses of ourselves, maybe we wouldn’t do it so often. We don’t stop to think about how our actions affect others. If we did, there wouldn’t be DUI-related car crashes and fatalities. By our own choices, we could literally put big tobacco, big pharma, big booze out of business. Think what a world THAT would make!

      Most pilots and surgeons are on uppers and downers, if they aren’t drinking.. The uppers are to keep them awake, and the downers are to help them sleep. They kinda offset each other, but are both addictive and deadly. Jagerbombs are kinda both combined…The Jager is the alcohol that makes you drowsy…the Red Bull gives you a shot of “energy”.

      Just cause they legalize it doesn’t mean people will be allowed to perform these functions high… Alc is legal but Dr.’s can’t be drunk at work, nor can you drive drunk, or even on certain prescriptions. Bottom line is people shouldn’t be jailed for smoking weed, and the laws are not stopping anyone who wants to smoke from smoking anyways

      GET REAL…… just because someone likes to get stoned does’nt mean that they’re high 24-7. I get stoned every day, but i’m in telecommunications, so i know better than to get high and stary climbing telephone poles. There is absolutely no reason for pot to have ever been illegal. They want everyone medicated on this synthetic bullshit, but make a natural growing herb illegal. They just need it illegal so they can put it in the same category as meth so that they can justify theire massive war on drug campaign.

      Paranoid? Reply:

      Who said anything about it then being assumed that smoking up at anytime would be acceptable. What most are saying is that with how intentionally lop-sided the view on various drugs that it should at the least be treated as alcohol: regulated, taxed, controlled sales/distribution, and societal norms. One would be in trouble for showing up to work (doctor, pilot, etc.) drunk so why would it be any different with weed? You sure you haven’t been smoking or had some in your food because you sound a little paranoid…

      deadmess... Reply:

      Whether any drug is legal or not, there will always be a market for it. With legalization, the question arises, do we want to allow a corrupted government/black market to have control of it, or do we want to legalize it and put the tax profits to public use.
      As alcohol prohibition taught us, we only create monsters by condemning a substance as “illegal”.
      We only demonize something by censoring or legally condemning it… a problem is manifested only because the establishment SAYS it is a problem.

      Sometimes, the best way to get people to DO something, is by telling them they can’t do it.

      It is a good deal..Basically an AK-47 with black hardware. They usually run between $500-$600 so that price isn’t bad if it is in good shape.

      Don’t buy it, bad deal. Its imported as a rifle that only accepts a single stack 10 round magazine, but they supply you with two 30 round magazines. Those double stack 30 round magazines will NOT work with that gun. This ad is misleading or the rifle has been altered to accept the larger mags.

      the stamped receiver on those are kinda flimsy but better than throwing rocks and the good thing about an ak is everytime you pull the trigger it fires! arsenal arms makes a good ak for around $800. if you can find one with a milled reciever you are in good shape but any ak will fire even with mud in it! as you see from my name i prefer the yugoslavian m70 underfolder

      maryjane is as addictive as caffine. How many caffine addicts consider their addiction a problem? MJ is not nearly as harmfull as alcohol. You can’t smoke yourself to death aka overdose, because you will fall asleep first. Trust me, I know from experiance.

      jeff i disagree if it was addictive a whole generation would be walking around stoned lol people who get addicted to substances are weak willed …..period……end of discussion…

      jeff Reply:

      The reason is because it’s illegal, so most people stay away from it. Caffine on the other hand is available in almost every convience store. Pretty simple to understand.

      Legalize it! Here are the 10 laws that should be passed with it:

      1. Always pass to the left.
      2. No travelers tokes allowed.
      3. Stay in your spot in the rotation or you will be skipped.
      4. Remember the 3 P’s. “Puff, Puff, Pass”.
      5. No Seeds or Stems Allowed, Ever.
      6. Bowls must be full before toking.
      7. You MUST Clear the Bong on the first try.
      8. If you cough, good job! Just remember to cover your mouth.
      9. Remember to keep and Recycle your Roaches.
      10. Munchies must be provided at the expense of those who did not contribute to the cause, but still indulged.

      Amendments to these laws are always welcome!

      I think weed should be legalized to take out the crime factor. I think the government should encourage employers to drug test. I believe anyone receiving any income from the government should have to be tested and found guilty surrender that income. That would help alot for those on welfare or unemployment that sit back and get high on tax dollars.

      i don’t think weed (a drug less harmful than alchohol and comes from a plant that can replace petroleum) will be legalized until we elect some real people in washington instead of corporate drones paid by big pharmas, oil companies and other entities that create toxic sh*t. just imagine if hemp was put into use, we can have a free market, a clean environment (take that carbon taxers) and energy independance. hemp makes the best ethanol, and makes much better paper than wood. 4 acres of hemp can make as much paper as 20 acres of trees, only takes a season to grow and can grow in most climates. it also makes non-toxic paints and plastics. no wonder the rockefellers and duponts outlawed it. anyone who thinks it was outlawed for the “greater good” (and that comes from both the “right” and “left”) needs a good knock in the head so they can wake-up.

      hehe Reply:

      ethanol is not a clean alternative unless it is produced correctly, which is almost impossible, and very expensive. The current ethanol production methods spew not just co2 but also high levels
      of carcinogens and other pollutants into the air. I don’t buy the global warming co2 propaganda, but most fuels pollute the atmosphere with a ton of other shit. And, by the way, burning ethanol in an engine produces co2. Burning natural gas produces co2. Hell, smoking a joint produces co2 also.

      be cautious – the powers that be make vast amounts of money on it being illegal and if they change the laws you can be rest assured it will be for their multi-national corporations. Beware of ‘decriminalization’ its the worst of all worlds – giving them more reason to break your door down and jack boot you.

      I would imagine that they will use this as a diversion – here weed is legal, dissent is not
      it goes along with the future GIA worship (see denver international airport murals)

      IF it becomes legal – excess tax would keep a blackmarket going and one should be able to grow it free and clear. somehow judging from previous experience, they will do the worst solution, decrim…

      I’d be more for legalizing the cultivation of your own, but it still remaining illegal to sell commercially, other than seeds, sale of “ingestion apparatuses,” or growing equipment. But, then again… that would benefit the people too much and leave those poor poor corporations in a lurch, so I doubt our Glorious Leaders will go for that.

      Most likely, they’ll just legalize and then force everyone to take GMO varieties without any medical benefit, so people will still be relying on the big pharma “solutions” for their “problems”.

    46. KJ Says:

      The reason weed is probably more potent today is because the shit you’re smoking most likely came from a UN-pollinated female sativa or Indica plant or should I say Sensimillia meaning (without seed) and if that’s the case of course it’s going to be more potent. Because an UN-pollinated female plant puts all her energy towards resin production whereas a pollinated plant puts all of her energy towards seed production. In the sixties 90 % of weed was probably seeded which lowers the THC content.

      By the way Rudolph Diesel made his 1st engine run on hemp un-pollenated

      Kristi

      I don’t intend to insult you, but allow me to share my story. I used to believe that pot was “bad” and made you stupid. I honestly could say I had never smoked weed in my life……….

      ……..until I was 28 (I am 33 now). I suffer from chronic migraines, arthritus, a genetic hip defect, and a slipped disc in my back from a car accident. I am in constant severe pain from multiple parts of my body, daily.

      When I was 28, one day I was at my (then) boyfriend’s house, and i had a migraine without my prescription medicine. I was alternating between vomiting and crying, begging God to make the pain go away. Frantic to help me, my boyfriend loaded a bowl and said “hit this. it will help” I was desperate. I took the first hit of my life. Guess what……………IT FREAKING WORKED!!!!!!!!!!!! Trust and believe my entire opinin changed. I am a medical patient now, and it helps make the pain bearable.

      Do I go to work high? NEVER. Am I a “stupid pothead”? By no means. What kind of job could I possibly have? Taco Bell? No. I am a behavioral instructor for children with autism. I help pull them out of thier own heads and learn how to take care of themselves, and function in this world to be able to live independant lives.

      This article is referring to making it legal, nationally that is (already legal in 14 states), for people like me. And yes, allowing the government to make a profit from the sales, which is no different than the cigarette taxes we already have.

      For you to assume that MEDICAL PATIENTS are all “stupid lazy potheads” simply based on those smokers that you know is very egocentric and offensive.

    48. Liberty or death Says:

      Weed needs to be legalized!!

      The effects of innocent people going to jail FAR, FAR outweigh the effects of smoking the plant itself!

      There is a damn good reason all mammals have THC receptors, because this beautiful, highly useful plant was put here for us.

      I’d honestly be surprised if it is re-legalized. Big pharma doesn’t want you to be able to consume a natural substance instead of their deadly pills.

      I know quite a few people who are life long pot smokers and to say they are mentally impaired is being kind.

      The pot of today is much stronger than what people were smoking back in the 60s, it can alter you mind…forever!

      Of course, its like everything else, just like alcohol, done in moderation it is fine. There are people out there who are addicted to pot, the same way others are addicted to alcohol and other drugs. If that person was not a pothead, they would be addicted to some other substance.

      I think it is a great idea to make it legal and to tax it! It would easily pay for the health care program.
