    Also... meth, coke, x and heroin should also all be legal. They're still doing it anyways... and all it's doing is making it dangerous to acquire and putting people in prison to be taken care of by the state when they could be free and dying off much sooner.

    That or we should just shoot these people in the head.

    If you think that sounds cold, I have a sister in jail for repeated meth use who abandoned her 3 sub 10 years old children in favor of the meth.

    This shit goes on all over the country. Which is why these childish socialists are such a punchline to informed, rational adults. You can't give the citizenry of THIS country, as presently constructed, a bunch more free shit with no accountability. It'll turn into a real life dave chappelle reparations skit, across all races.

    It would take a major qualitative overhaul of the culture here for "european socialism" to even have a chance of being sustainable.

    The left is terrified of these realities obv, since theyre already more likely to be social outcasts. If we start drawing lines around who's worth keeping and who's not... they know they're closest to the choppin block



    Hence the platform of "unconditional tolerance except for the untolerance who arent as tolerant as my tolerance!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! "

    Sick nation has sick people. News at 11.

    I like the double speak term: recreational. Nice marketing. You always gotta have a chuckle at the ways drugs and addiction are marketed.

    We're at a little over 20% of the country being fully legal, i'm hoping it does down here but the state if pretty split in half so i'm not holding my breath.

    I do wonder, though, if we shot people that drank alcohol in the head, nicotine... in the head... marijuana... in the head... if society would be better off or worse off. Essentially, if you are taking any substance for a non medical reason and as a means of escape, you will be shot in the head... I wonder how much that would clean us up, or not clean us up.

    I suspect it would do a lot, actually. But we're talking about killing, what, 90% of the population at least, including probably everyone that posts on this board besides me? Ha. I just looked it up... 30% of people don't drink... I call bullshit on that.
    Are you including sugar and caffeine in your hypothetical?

    How about sex, gambling and internet?

    Who remains alive after this purge?

    I believe the 30% teetotaler figure.

    There are many family members of alcoholics that choose not to drink because of their personal experiences.

    From a medical perspective I'd prefer it wasn't smoked. Any smoke is harmful to your lungs regardless of where it comes from. Harm to lungs is serious business, as proven by the recent vape scares and chronic smoke exposure generally = lung cancer.

    Better to ingest until some definitive proof of harm emerges. I've yet to see any. Only health risk I've seen from ingestion is Cannabinoid Hyperemesis Syndrome which is relatively minor and the cure is simple. Stop the substance.

    If it helps folks deal with whatever demons they've got then I'm all for it. If it helps people relax, I'm all for it.

    Unfair to tell folks with PTSD to "deal with reality" when they can't even tell what reality is at times. Not that it's fair for folks with anxiety or depression......but the point still stands.

    It would be best not to use it before the brain has finished developing, same as alcohol, so mid 20's, but that's not entirely realistic.

    It'd be best to make it legal, but prohibited to minors until they are free to make their own health decisions. So legal adult age required.

    And of course places of business should be able to ban their employees from using on the job, same as alcohol, tobacco or any prescription drugs with side effects that alter cognitive ability.

    Ideally, the more education/information out there the better. Educating somebody that the marijuana may in fact worsen their anxiety before they have taken it would be a pretty good idea, as just one example.

    Marijuana dispensaries dripping like flies around here. The business side is not sustainable.

    Lmao... If you took away peoples escapes the amount of anarchy that would unfold would be incredible. They're doing us a favor by drowning and dulling themselves out in favor of snapping.
