re: If California legalizes recreational marijuana tmrw, does that affect all of us?

they should legalize it then hopefully the rest of the country comes to their senses

I support legal marijuana, but I think those who actually smoke it are lowlife worthless deadbeats who are no better than the maggots reproducing in a dead possum carcass.

"belch!"

I think it will have to take California, New York, and Texas together for the whole country to get on board. Once Texas goes, the gates are open

There's been basically zero negatives in Colorado. Billions are being made, citizens who enjoy weed after work are no longer criminals, fast food employees aren't selling it to kids (my first hook ups were all Taco Bell cashiers when I was in middle school), prices are significantly cheaper than the South, higher quality cannabis is sold, flower is checked for mold and unapproved supplements and additives, concentrates ate readily available, and paranoia is almost non-existent.

It will take Georgia or Texas legalizing it before anyone else in this region does

It will actually take Florida passing medical. That's the first southern domino. That or larger southern cities that have decriminalized it. That was a huge step.

Medical marijuana would be a quick way to convert old people. Also morbid, but as that population and all their friends get cancer, I've found that a lot of them become much more accepting of marijuana in places where they have access to it for pain, n/v, etc. Of course that's purely anecdotal and may not cause then to be accepting of recreational pot but it does seem rational at least...

That's an accurate assessment. Imo. Old people were raised on reefer madness and other propaganda. As they finally are exposed to the true nature of the plant, they're realizing it's not what they were led to believe.

I would like to see it put on a Ballot in each State.Let the people of voting age,ie,adults,decide.

I've lived 55 years under the current Laws.I have access to Marijuana from a Dispensary at a price I'm ok with.

My only complaint is that I don't get to pick what Strain is sent here.

They are all very good though.

It allows me to get by on way less pain medication than I was taking before I got access to this high grade Marijuana.

This time last year at the time of a Knee Replacement,I was on 180 mg of Morphine a day.Now I take 10 mg Hydrocodone 3-4 times a day.

This. I hope every day weed is legalized here.

I hate all the side effects of alcohol. And I hate that the government forces me to drink and smoke cigarettes.

Actually, THAT's propaganda. Basically nobody alive remembers a time when that movie was meant to be taken seriously as an anti-drug piece.

It's more of a reference. They made many propaganda films over the decades. But the effects of that propaganda had a huge impact on people's views until the baby boomers came of age.
