Good for Texas voters. But the real THC surely tastes better.

Imagine being the party of limited government crusading against what people partake in the privacy of their own homes. He may as well have tried banned alcohol with identical messaging and had the same conclusion.

Throwing people in jail for weed longer than you would a child molester is definitly a bad bad bad look that did make a big difference in Texas. What that dipshit did down there is the craziest thing I have seen. That press conferece with the edibles killed him. Anyone that thinks that didnt make a big difference is nutts.


And that kind of moronic governance is the direct result of having zero interest in understanding or zero fear of Texas voters.

That’s what 30 years of one-party rule generates. Arrogance and hubris.

I work 100% of the time in those areas.

I know a fair number of normal people in those states who have yet to figure out that voting Democrat isn't what got them where they are. Voting for legal weed is the gateway drug to voting against your entire society.

I don't give a frick who you happen to know. Your personal work and social circle isn't a representative sample of 150 million people. That's how many Americans live in states where voters have legalized recreational marijuana. And your weird arse doesn't get to appoint yourself the arbiter of who's "normal" among them.

You can disagree with their politics, but dismissing millions of voters as abnormal because they exercised their democratic rights and disagreed with you is just an admission that you think your personal preferences should carry more weight than everyone else's freedom.

frick you and your personal preferences.

Yes it is.

Now do states that have legalized it for recreational use, which is obviously the difference here.

That isn't it. You're a moron who didn't understand the conversation. Lay off the weed so you can think clearer.

Probably not for much longer, if there's any silver lining to what happened.

This election was largely defined by MAGA stomping repeatedly on its own dick.

This is just more of that. Ridiculous self inflicted wound.


Trump rescheduled weed.

This issue is the old guard being dumb.

I'm glad you say that because I undershot. 180 million live in legal RECREATIONAL states (24 states and DC). As that was obviously the difference, according to you, and you seem unaware of this you may concede now.

I'll rephrase. No one outside of yourself gives a frick about your opinion of who is "normal."

Politicians like Dan Patrick were the product of the GOP thinking they were untouchable in Texas. Guy always came off like a sleazy televangelist

ok lol so you are actually saying that legal weed in Colorado is causing people to go crazy and be homeless?

Psychosis was the first thing I listed. For example there are cases of kids jumping out hotel windows. Listen to Joe Rogan on this issue
