Topic: Man, my state's gotta legalize marijuana already.

Posted under Off Topic

Y'all, with all this drama going on right now, I feel we really just need to start legalizing pot state by state. Spread the love, hit a blunt.
If you're still under the control of that fear campaign just remember, hemp (an ingredient in weed) has been used for thousands of years by many people to make many everyday things (clothes, paper, etc), and smoking it doesn't do near as much harm as tobacco. Only thing weed ever does is give you the munchies. But even if it's not "good" for you, what ultimately is harmless? Moderation folks.
Anyway I ain't here to argue I just felt like saying this so don't bother start an argument.

Could always move to the Evergreen state......but deciding whether to alter one's situation on the basis of legislation is a pretty shitty choice anyway.

I actually have myoclonic epilepsy, and speaking solely on a personal level it's one of the few things that can bring relief; if I didn't live in Washington state, I would probably have to choose between rent and antiseizure pharms.

So many things a decade ago seemed so remote a possibility that it's honestly kind of shocking how things are starting to progress with dissemination of (mis)information becoming less and less centralized. At that point, who would've thought the whole marriage issue would've gotten this far by now....each year brings a new opportunity and it seems more are finally starting to take up on it. Better times are coming........

Yeah I think at least one of the parties that are going to be running in the next election support full legalization of the stuff

I personally don't care about all this damn progressive society stuff. Everybody wants everyone to be a political activist, I just want to stay put in the backwoods and live my own life, free of big government and such. Free to keep hunting, keep my own land, etc. The only political stance I ever take is state-sovereignty.
I should've been a cowboy in the 19th century that's where I would've best fit in

Just throwing it out there because there are plenty of fools who believe otherwise. "Well marijuana doesn't impair you as much as alcohol, so it's alright to drive under the influence of it!"

Wait, I thought we weren't allowed to talk about drugs on e621.

I half expected a reprimanding remark from an admin already, but seeing NotMeNotYou talk about hemp bread has me feeling confused.

Discussing illegal activities is against the rules, talking about the possible legalization, or lack thereof, isn't against the rules.

Also, hemp bread is made from a different type of hemp that doesn't produce any THC, and is delicious. They actually grow the non-THC versions in Germany and I can only recommend it.

When I saw NotMeNotYou talk about hemp bread, I immediately thought of the rope fibre. And then I thought to myself 'who eats bread made of rope?'
And then I did some research, and it turns out that hemp bread is a thing. Wow. I have never heard of hemp being used for anything but rope.

Also, at least the US still has some discussion and consideration on whether to legalize weed or not. Where I live it's just as illegal as ever, the thought of legalizing it has never even crossed any lawmaker's mind, and it's a real long stay in jail if you get caught.
