Sessions was supposed to be untouchable. But looks like he wants out. With the exception of Texas, I really don't identify with southern Republicans.

That's what you get when you elect these backward Republicans. You get a return to the dark ages.

I guess some people miss their 8 years of economic suck, when every thing that matters to families went south. Jobs, wealth, even health insurance

Some people just love losing

Some people prefer pot over jobs

Some people love hearing "your jobs are not coming back", but at least you can get stoned

Some people just have different value systems


I think Pot should be legal, let somebody on either side actually fight for that cause as OPPOSED TO IGNORING THE LAWS OF THE LAND

Have you ever seen people that smoke weed all week? theyre the enlightened future?

I doubt the administration is going to take an strong anti-weed stance

Willie - it is not an either/or - pot or jobs. That’s not fair.

MJ industry is/was/will create legitimate jobs...while reducing power of cartels and reducing mass incarceration and giving people criminal records that make them hard to employ and then they end up in jail or using social services.

No offense and I believe you to be a smart dude but weak take IMO...

Not sure what all the fuss is here. Federal Law with pot is a lot different then State law. Feds don't go after the small shit. Usually big busts..recreational use etc has nothing to do with Fed law.. smoke away people if you must.

Good luck putting that cat back in the bag

Imagine how much better off we'd be as a society if we took the money Jeff Sessions is going to spend throwing people in jail for smoking reefer, and used it to treat opiate addiction instead.

64k deaths from opioids last year in the US

Zero from THC

Zero from THC isn't accurate. Someone in here said I think it was their child was killed by a driver impaired by marijuana, and I know of another case this
past year personally.

From marijuana alone there is 0. I know what you're referencing that person also said that driver had been up all night working at her job and was taking all sorts of drugs. He said molly or something along those lines.

Can't drink and do serious drugs and then intake thc and then blame marijuana. Makes no sense.

One thing to consider if people are really dying from smoking and driving. Sounds stupid just saying it. But if recreational legalisation use is to blame.....then it has to do with what they are spraying on the recreational weed. They grow it differently, spray chemicals on it, and do not lab test it. Maybe that is why all of a sudden people ar crashing. Because the medical has to be lab tested because it's for cancer patients. Something to think about. Like I said, I refuse to smoke the recreational. It's a disgrace

maybe some places. but if you go to a dispensary in Vegas for example it is the same place and product rec or med. you just pay different price (more tax) and wait in a longer line if rec. I guess I don’t really understand the distinction you are making. You are talking about the reason someone is smoking/ingesting but that does not impact the plant. Plenty of medical places in Cali that are not selling lab tested flowers.

Yep the one down the street from my house is the same, you can get what ever you want there. Anyone can get the medical stuff. I wonder what happens to these businesses now?

I get in a car accident, the doctors give me heroin in a pill but I can't legally take cannabis. Such a joke. FDA just recently put Kratom on their watch list which helps a lot of people withdraw from opiates. 100% natural. Big pharma at it again.

The distinction or correlation is with recreational pot and the increase of car accidents/deaths. So what I am suggesting is it may have something to do with the unnatural process they use to make recreational weed. And that is what people are buying who don't have medical issues technically.


I'm not talking about the reason. I am talking about the problem.


The problem is the recreational shit. It is garbage. That's fact. But the process at which they go about it is different than medical.... these discussions come up anytime something is made legal or illegial.

But I don't remember a time before these 7 or so states went to recreational, that there were high accident rates because of marijuana. Doubt there were many articles suggesting that. Which begs the question if there are actually people dying and an increase in accidents in those 7 states......is recreational the problem? Due to what I said they do to it....don't lab test it, miracle grow the shit, spray chemicals to make it grow faster. That's how you supply the demand.

So non medical patients aka tourists can buy the medical? How does that make sense? Why would anyone buy the recreational that is actually taxed and more expensive and terrible compared to some amazing cronic that is actually cheaper. I need to get back to Vegas then geeze

I seen on tv this one dude bitch about the product because he got the recreational. And went crazy on the employees until they gave him medical...and they eventually did...that would be me regardless. So not saying they won't give you it. But skeptical they would give just anyone a choice.

Same product
same store
different rate of taxation (8% vs 15% or something)
you only get the medical price if you have a doctors rec
But anyone of age can buy exact same product

To be honest in Vegas biggest advantage of a medical card is you skip the line of 100 tourists waiting to get in the store on weekends and close to the strip. Otherwise zero difference other than higher tax on sales to recreational buyers
