Colorado and Washinton passed law legalizing recreational use of cannabis (marijuana)!!

Like that's somehow some revelation or some sort of big deal... it's such a tiny, irrelevant subject in the world of politics. I look down on anyone that thinks it's a big deal.


It's ******* moronic to celebrate the legalization of something so stupid.

I have no bone in the fight, but it's even more moronic to ruin someones life because they wanna get high by throwing them in jail.

I feel like the only real difference now is increased tax revenue and less $$ spent on law enforcement and jail time.

Ryan, that precisely why I love it, It's a complete waste of time and money to arrest people for marijuana related crimes. Slap a tax and driving limit on it, and call it good. Which is exactly what they did.

For the record I think pot is the nastiest stuff ever. Hate the smell and think its a stupid drug.

All you liberal homosexuals think this is great now, just wait until Satanic homosexuals hopped up on marijuana rape you in your mouths. Then we'll see who was right all along.

About goddamn time. And, YES, this is a big issue. More so than abortion, gay rights, or any of the other things people try to play off as the major issues.

Does this compare to other issues, such as healthcare, job creation, govt spending, civil liberties, etc? NOPE.

Now, when do we let the existing offenders out of prison for their non violent marijuana related crimes? Probably never.

Light the match, burn the flower
Leave behind, all the wrong
Why be sad?
When happiness can be bought for a little more then free
Modern day prohibition

Are we men? Are we children?
At what age, can I choose how to live?

The only real drug problem is scoring real good drugs
Haven't we learned our lesson?
The corner store sells finer scotch
But who's got uncut powder?
We just want what is ours (dignity)
If God created plants and buds that I find and abuse
Then who the **** are you to judge me?

So sorry to **** in your tea princess.

It IS a big deal. You know how many people are locked up, paid for by our tax dollars, for something so stupid?

I have no problem keeping the rapist, murderers, **** even thieves behind bars. FFS though, pot smokers?

Its about time we skipped the "medical marijuana" bs and got right to the point. Recreational use of marijuana in the US will free up some space in jails for REAL criminals, cut costs on border patrol and pot raid operations, increase tax revenue, etc etc. All the while, giving those that smoke a safer way to do so.
