Gays and weed

[Stickfight]

NPR is saying recreational marijuana passed in Washington state and Colorado. Really anxious to see what the Feds do. Massachusetts approved it for medical use and Arkansas seems to be headed that way.

Also reporting that a same sex marriage referendum passed in Maine. This is the first one to be voter approved.

Marijuana Legalization On The Ballot: (INTERACTIVE RESULTS)

Still getting the votes in. doesn't look like it will go through in Oregon as a recreational drug or Arkansas as medicinal

Good for Washington, Colorado, and Maine. Step in the right direction for Massachusetts and Arkansas (if it passes).

Finally, some good news...

Obama loves freedom. I'm sure the DoJ will be fine with that. It's not like they have been cracking down on medical marijuana so why would they bother with recreational use.

Wait. That can't be right.

Good news for 2016 I guess.

I don't know if potheads make concession speeches but I had read that the Oregon ballot was all but lost. I though Arkansas was coming down to the wire so I won't be surprised either way.

I find this stuff very interesting from a states rights / individual freedom perspective. I'm hoping it either leads to a firm SCOTUS decision saying the Feds can't regulate weed grown in a state sold in that state and smoked by residents of that state, or the voice of the people becomes too loud to deny...but I'm not holding my breath.

Big day for personal LIBERTY today.

GOP better pay attention and get on board the FREEDOM train if they want to remain viable going forward.

Yea, they should've already legalized same sex unions (NOT "marriage"), and got behind decriminalizing pot, since it obviously has medicinal value, and is non-narcotic.

Like I said in another thread, the Christian right, has lost all political relevancy in this country now, and especially after Obama is done with them, so legislating morality needs to stop. However, anyone that thinks Democrats represent freedom needs to do their homework, since big government, mire laws, taxes, and regulations is the opposite if freedom, even if they support TOKEN issues like gay "marriage".

I read the title and thought this was going to be about Printcraft's weekend.

Yeah if the state can avoid any interstate commerce legal issues, the Feds will really have to overstep their bounds to enforce.

I fear it may be too late....

Ya - No

Gay Weed just wont work.
As you know, breeding is super important for the next years crop. Without Pot Sex - Hippies will DIE.

If we get a bunch of boy buds knocking roots that wont share their happiness with the girl ganja then we will eventually run out of hemp eggs.
This will result in a THC dry spell that paralyze the stoner world for decades.

So - Gay Weed needs to be stopped now.

Gays have the best weed... or so I'm told... by other people... who aren't me... I'll just be over here....

As I understand it grafting is pretty popular in cannabis cultivation. So gay weed would be just fine. Better, in fact. There's a reason growers purge all the male plants.

It's not like the DoJ has been cracking down on anything except showing ID at the polls.

You're kidding, right? Obama's War on Pot

I believe the previous poster already covered that. I guess I could have said "anything ELSE..."

 

[jrogers]

Ah, I suppose this is that "irony" thing I've heard so much about. I stand by my post, as it contained actual relevant content.

Polls have repeatedly shown that the number one reason why youth avoid drug use is because it is illegal. (When morality collapses in a society, whatever is legal is generally viewed as OK.)

A recent finding by the Centers for Disease Control has found that legal drugs are our nation's biggest substance abuse problem with more Americans now addicted to, and dying from, prescription abuse than heroine and cocaine use combined.
