So that's what it takes?

Well, he could have pushed through the massive tax reform he promised instead of the watered down version we got, and that would have done it. Being he didn’t, starting to chip away at the failed War on Drugs would be a nice consolation prize.

But you’re ignorantly assuming that I’m a pothead, so I can understand your confusion.

I would be really happy about this. What's important though is that they remove it from the federal schedule. No more half-measures or looking the other way.

Agreed. Axe 100% of the federal regulations. Let states regulate it how they want. It's time to take this issue off the board once and for all.

Over time alcohol makes you destitute, beat your wife, drive while drunk and kill someone & destroys your liver.

What a sad thing to get so many people pumped up about, but if that's what he wants to do, he might as well benefit politically from it.


yeah what a great idea, follow through on campaign promises and benefit politically, imagine that

probably allowing green industries to accept credit cards for payment,


BINGO
which then allows publicly traded corporations to come in and legitimize the industry so that products like CBD oil can be purchased at pharmacies on your insurance plan. It is way beyond pot heads smoking bowls on the sofa, this has far reaching implications for Pain Management

Well, it's a little more like alcohol. Some people become alcoholics. Some potheads are total losers but others are normal, productive citizens.

I like weed too... just saying that Trump has been one of the best Presidents over the last century.

And we're not a dictatorship, I'm sure if legislation was solely up to Trump things would be different. But Congress has to have their way first.

I could pass a drug test right now, but if you’re a little blitzed, I could see how you would think that

TRUMP TO REFORM MARIJUANA POLICY AFTER MIDTERMS.


More than likely, they look at removing marijuana from the list of schedule 1 drugs.

I’d give him credit if he does in a meaningful and productive way. No doubt. It’s an important issue and he’s at a crossroad where we have an opportunity to make change.

I dont think marijuana is the painkiller potheads want it to be. It's just not. Sure some may find it helpful but I dont think there's a single study saying its even as effective as ibuprofen or acetaminophen.

It's just a myth that's been passed around IMO.

I use a CBD Oil lotion on my knees and it is fantastic, by far the best joint pain relief lotion I have ever come across

You are fricking retarded. There are cancer patients whose lives have been changed once they started smoking.

They found that 10 milligrams of THC gave the same pain relief as a 60-milligram (moderately strong) dose of codeine and that 20 milligrams of THC worked as well as 120 milligrams of codeine.
