Legalized Marijuana Could Go Up In Smoke Under Trump

[Luxman]

Because legal weed is cutting into the profits of his mafia buddies, and he got "donations" aka bribes from big ass pharma and the private prison system, so their profits don't go down.
Profits > human lives...MAGA

This is clearly a state thing and will be left that way. I don't think it will ever be brought up at the federal level.

it's a shame that republicans don't adopt more libertarian ideals... they are against "big govt" when it comes to taxes and rules for businesses, but when it comes to individual freedoms, they want the govt to be oppressive and tell us what we can and can't do

The GOP is overwhelmingly authoritarian.

To be fair, Democrats have only recently started to come around on the whole "I'm not your dad" front.

Because they are almost all extremely insecure self righteous control freaks.
False to the core and oh so angry....
This is what fractures a country and sparks armed resistance.
Legalization is working and the facist can't stand it.

I'm a leave me alone kind of person too. I have my conservative values but they are mine as an individual. Others share these values too. USA constitution was written to preserve this basic concept and not to regulate.

The best example of this is the bathroom debate. Why this is a topic I just don't know. Get real, Is there really a fear of unspeaking things happening in public bathrooms? Gas stations have keys chained to cinder blocks. Go in with your kid or wait outside the door. 3rd bathrooms? Tell you what, all public bathrooms be ripped away and use pot-a-potties. It's taking a piss, fixing your hair, and washing your hands. Over regulations happen on both sides. Stop believing in the boogey man.

I think some of these politicians need to try some weed and lighten up... about everything.

Ha ha. My money is that they did and will never admit it.

Because your friend Obama was right? He turned America into a nightmare with more illegals and more radical muslims. And you are out of touch with the reality like most of all obama voters. The fracture happened when your friend Obama started his race baiting and stupid policies with Al Sharpton, Loretta Lynch in order to favor the ghetto crowd and blame the fault on whites. I know the liberal bs talk: "Obama did this, Obama did that. Yada, Yada".

So easy to form opinions when you live so far away.
You won't be able to blame everyone else for very much longer.
By the way mellow out you raving lunatic.

Oh god yes woe are we what a "nightmare" the United States is...not!

Whatever happened to the bloody national race wars so many of you conservatives assured us were coming over the Zimmerman verdict, and the non indictment of Officer Wilson in Ferguson?

The deepest recent fracture between americans began when Bush invaded Iraq, and we have not bounced back from that because of its massive, broad spectrum consequences.

The world has never been as good as it is now as a whole. Never in our recorded history yet so many believe the opposite.

If this actually happens, with Canada set to Federally Legalize pot, that's another drug American's are going to smuggle back home

I'm not saying that this won't happen but you can count on dogs sniffing every car coming back here. Boarder police don't need consent to search. It wouldn't be possession, it'd be smuggling for even the smallest bag of weed. Not worth my risk.

As always big fat greedy pharma and other corrupt corporations are lobbying (bribing) politicians to pass laws that favor corporate profits at the expense of peoples lives.

In light of Democrats wanting to control healthcare, guns, what we feed our kids, how big of a soda we can buy, you can smoke weed but not tobacco, this post about "control freaks" is especially delicious.

It's about regulating corporations to try and minimize the toxic crap they are selling as food or drugs for hundreds or thousands of times the manufacturing cost.
Most sugars/sweeteners should be illegal to add to foods, they cause so many diseases and kill over 1 million people in America per year, make countless millions more sick, and cost taxpayers hundreds of billions in health care costs.

We'll cut down on sugar, if you'll stay off the highway. Deal pothead?

It's simple math, millions die every year from toxic crap manufactured by the corporations that are bribing politicians to outlaw marijuana.
Marijuana on the other hand is a natural product that has many uses and can save millions of lives and save taxpayers trillions of dollars in the long run.
How many people die from direct or indirect Marijuana use per year???
The manufactured toxic crap that is sold as food should be outlawed, not marijuana.
I rarely use marijuana, maybe a few times per year, and I have never tried any other drug.
The only reason corporations want to make marijuana illegal again is to increase their profits, they don't care that millions die every year from the toxic crap they sell.
