MS will print money on the coast when they legalize before Louisiana.

Makes sense. Being high probably takes some of the edge off of living in NY.

Not to mention the industrial folks who will say it'll essentially gut their workforce.



Wait, why would it “gut their workforce”?


Does alcohol do that? Why shouldn’t someone be able to relax with some bud after work as long as they aren’t showing up stoned?

Because, despite legalization, these companies would still have a no THC policy. There are no metrics for THC inebriation. It's either detected, or it's not.

Who will be the last state to legalize, Georgia or Louisiana?

Alabama says hold my beer.

We may get to vote on a lottery again by the time everyone else legalizes marijuana.

So maybe they should get better tests

I agree with you, but you know as well as I do that places like Shell will continue a zero tolerance policy until a government sanctioned THC threshold is established thereby reducing their liability to as close to 0 as possible.

It’s just ridiculous to me. The company doesn’t pay you on your time off, and it’s absolutely absurd that you can go on vacation to another state within the US, enjoy a perfectly legal product, go home and then lose your job weeks after the fact.

Keeping weed illegal is just another way LE can make contact with you.

The fewer laws we have, the less we need law enforcement managing our lives.

Keep violent offenders and thieves in prison, let the others go.

Time to end the Nanny State. However, progs and social conservatives both love it.

Meanwhile my state is busting businesses for selling legal Delta-8.
Wasn’t the guy in Atlanta selling delta 9 carts labelled as delta 8? Unless there was another raid somewhere I haven’t heard about yet.

Guy running a shop up in Dahlonega said there's been a few more raids and it scared the hell out of a lot of shop owners so they took it off the shelves.

I completely agree with you. Hell, You can do coke on a Friday night and be clean by Monday if you're given a 10 panel, but you can be completely sober but lose your job for something you did at your house on your day off a week before.

And a hundred other things.

Taking a persons freedom should be the last resort, unless they are incapable of being rehabilitated.

Why don’t all you fernworms who keep whining for legal weed in your own states just move to Colorado or NY? Problem solved.

I don’t give a shite if you burn one or not, but Louisiana has bigger issues than weed to deal with and legalizing it ain’t gonna fix shite here. Except make the criminals in the legislature richer.

Its funny to me that you can be a criminal one minute, and then the next minute you are suddenly not a criminal. While the only thing that changes is what it says on some crummy piece of paper.
