Fortunately Trump steered the R party away from these big brother non-conservative stances and focused it on economy and security.

I fully agree. These bullshite moral issues, along with abortion, prostitution, and other things that are personal choices, should not concern any of us so much.
That's between a person and their maker. It's so much wasted time and bullshite emotional energy.

The politicians in Louisiana are so bad and sheriffs have so much power it will be a long arse time before it is legal here but doing so would be a huge boom to the economy especially if they were the first to do so in the south. Not punishing people for it would also save a shite ton of money.

As Winston Wolf would say, let's not start sucking each other yet.
For instance, Texas Republicans adopted several pro-marijuana party planks, including expanding medicinal uses and decriminalizing smaller quantities (fine only).
Well, when the nutcutting time came, the state senate put the kibosh on both.
Lying to get votes and then not carrying through? Who'd a thunk it.
Well I’ll give you some comfort in knowing that McConnell is a huge hemp guy and also knows Gardner needs this for re-election, and Trump is a big proponent of states rights

You support states' rights to arbitrarily be anti-freedom? Surely there's limits to this, but I bet it's not as clear cut as you think it is.

We've tried to put booze in the genie bottle, and didnt work. it's an abused substance by many, and we have to live with it. Cigs we are slowly taking out, but then bring in something similar....smart. Again, once it is let out then it can never be put back in. And I smoke from time to time, but i'm not naive enough to think it's a great idea to legalize it. Not factoring in the "stoning" of the people of Seattle/Portland as apart of the other problems is just ridiculous. Smfh

I'm pretty sure that every state that has legalized put it to a vote by the people first. If the people in a particular state votes to not legalize then that's not anti-freedom at all.

Wait. If people vote to enact anti freedom policies then it's not anti freedom since they voted on it?

Do you think it's anti-freedom that you can't go out and kill someone just because you want to?

This type of bullshite has been used to stop banking and legalization progress, and it will only continue.
ACLU:
"People who have been harmed by the enforcement of marijuana must have a place in the bourgeoning marketplace created by legalization. Indeed, any legalization bill should include provisions that enable people who have struggled to find employment due to a marijuana conviction to participate meaningfully in the marijuana industry. Excluding people directly impacted by marijuana criminalization from the industry further entrenches the outsized impact that the war on drugs has had on communities of color.
If we legalize without mindfulness of the full ecosystem of the criminal legal system and how it impacts people, then corporate and industry-backed legalization efforts will lead us away from what is right and just. That is why we must support legalization legislation that truly help roll back overcriminalization, end the failed war on drugs once and for all, and usher in a more equitable future through drug law reform nationwide."
Blockers of Capitalism
Now go watch a congressional hearing. All the inner city democrats are spouting this bullshite.

This board bashes Seattle/Portland for where it has gotten, but supports legalization of weed. The hypocrisy, and "head in sand" to clear examples of where it heads is baffling.
I support the legalization of weed and bash Seattle/Portland all the time.
How am I being a hypocrite in doing so? You do understand there is a difference between social policy and fiscal policy, correct?

Well, we do seem to forget pretty easily that the Democrats founded the Ku Klux Klan and fought to keep slavery legal. Why would this issue be any different?

It's been 150 years and you seem to remember... so I'm guessing it's not so easily forgotten

Freedom generally refers to the ability to do what you want so long as it doesn't harm others.
Also, do you think it should be up to the states to decide if murder is legalized or not?
