So why don’t we legalize cannabis?

I’d bet money if pot was legalized nationally it would cut the murders significantly. Trump has had ample time, and Obama, Bush, Clinton, Bush...
Get the government out of what we do with our own damned bodies. I have to question just how small government somebody is that supports cannabis staying scheduled.

I don't really see the issue leaving it up to the state.

Because of Private Prisons and Pharmaceutical Companies. They like making money and buying legislators.

yea man young blacks are murdering people at unprecedented rates because they can’t get legal weed

Legalization, if handled and regulated properly, would also continue reducing the income of the cartels. I don’t smoke the stuff, but there are many very good reasons to do this.

Trump would win for sure if he’d come out for weed

Yeah, I agree. It's been years since I used it. If it was legal I may do it again. It used to make me laugh when I did it. I could use some laughs the way things are now.

The cartels have already essentially been cut out of the weed trade and tripled down on meth and heroin

The underground environment it forces people in certainly doesn’t help. But you’re right there’s no murders because of the war on drugs.

Why do we need the government envolved?

Would you be okay with your 15 yr. old Daughter smoking weed, DG?
There are things that me and you can do, that will cause us no harm, because we will not succumb to the negative aspects therein. But there are some people, who will view our own 'immunity' from said negative forces, as a personal license to indulge their own (perhaps inability) license to indulge. And they will be negatively affected.
The Good Book calls this "casting a stumbling block in the path of the weaker brethren". Not saying any person who is inclined to accept a civic responsibility burden is superior, other than serving their own personal conscience. Just saying that there are some things that a parent can do - and endorse - and there are things that they should no do (endorse)...for love's sake.
I don't smoke any more; but sure don't begrudge someone who does. Lord knows I enjoyed more than my share; and honestly, learned/saw 'abstract' things that I would otherwise not be able to 'see'.
Whatever.

The money they make off of weed is a pittance compared to the other stuff. They're not killing each other in Chicago over weed.

You said murders because of weed not the war on drugs as a whole

I can think of several, but I'm for it. If Trump legalized it across the board you'd see his approval jump 30 pts

What is the correlation between illegal marijuana and murder?
Posted on 7/22/20 at 8:59 pm to Celery
Don’t forget law enforcement in that grouping as well

I have a 15 yr old son and no I’m not ok with him smoking weed, but I can handle talking to him about it like a parent though. And keeping it illegal does absolutely nothing to stop them from acquiring it, and honestly might even make it easier.
