Aren't there other states voting on legalization tomorrow?

If we could reform our lobbying industry you'd very quickly see legal marijuana. Big pharma, private prisons, and law enforcement have big time money on the line and pay big.

Once everyone in that state starts doing drugs it will be the end of the movie industry. And I say good riddance.

Didn't New Orleans recently decriminalize the possession of a small amount?
Yep. So did several large Florida cities. Not sure what the laws are in Atlanta

Lol. Most of the film industry probably smokes already. Weed opens up creativity sectors in your brain. If anything, we might finally get some original ideas

Five states, including California.
Notables are Arizona and Nevada
Montana is voting to legalize medical marijuana

Weren't the baby boomers the hippies of the 60s? Seems like they started the marijuana revolution.

I think also North Dakota and Florida too.

I've never used it in this context, but Thank God for Mississippi.

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.

Unless their heroin use has also gone up.

Massachusetts has it on the ballot tomorrow as well. I'll be voting yes.

it was a massive step backwards. From what I could gather, the way the laws are now make it much better for someone who wants to get bud and smoke it. If passed, the new laws would pretty much make it impossible to smoke unless you're hidden in your own closet or something
This is confusing to me. So with the laws on the books right now (i.e. no recreational marijuana), it is easier to get weed and smoke it recreationally than it would be once recreational weed is legal? Why wouldn't you have to hide in your closet and smoke it today since it's not legal for recreational use?

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.
From your use of possem wisdom I suspect your entire local population also matches that description

Alabama will be last. Mississippi actually has more lax laws than most southern states.

It's hard to kill the golden goose when it feeds so many politicians and tax collectors.
Do you not know the revenue CO is getting from sales?
Or do you not know the revenue generated from drunk driving? Alcohol is legal you know.

I believe it. In high school 15-18 years ago, drugs were much easier to get than booze. We had to get creative as hell to get alcohol. In middle school, I'd page Reggie or Wanda, meet them at taco bell, order a couple tacos, then go to the bathroom and wait. They'd meet me in there and give me whatever I needed in a drink cup. I'd then eat my tacos and enjoy the free soda, then go get high somewhere.
Prohibition is a fricking joke.

That's a whole different problem, that's unrelated to cannabis use. That's from big pharma lying to doctors about addiction rates. Heroin use is up everywhere. Particularly in rural America.
