Not true. I made no mention of the Dems or the Reps at all. You are the only one who went down that rabbit hole.
I spoke about Mitch McConnell, the current Senate Majority leader who is adamantly opposed to marijuana legalization. Has been for decades. And will be for as long as he is in control of the bills that come to the floor of the Senate. Regardless of who sponsors them, what money may be involved, or what the current polling may say.
His bread has been buttered for decades on enforcement of prohibition laws that help to finance for profit prisons. He will not change…ergo, legalization will never occur while he is in power.
This is a serious post, with logic and reasoning.
Now, hit me with an Orange Man Bad meme or some other nonsense about R’s bad D’s good.
What I love is that the States have already decided and there really is no turning back.
Pot legalization hits all the conservative benchmarks- its libertarian, its a states rights issue, it decreases the need for taxpayer money criminalizing those who consume cannabis. Pretty much a no brainer except for the “Drugs are baaaaaaaad” reefer madness canard that is dying with the older generation.
It’d be great if the GOP Senate took this up…but they won’t. Not yet…maybe in a decade or so after a younger crew step in.
On the bright side, it’s only a matter of time before no one is paying attention to small personal grows anymore than they pay attention to how much wine people brew at home already.
Both. You’re not a part of the Conservative group here, so you probably don’t have enough insight there. We know full-well where each of us individuals stand on the matter.
I think that’s already happening, really. At least here. You never hear of anyone being busted for more plants than they’re “allowed”, unless it’s a pretty big grow.
Still fresh here in Missouri. There have been about a half dozen people arrested in the Kansas City/Independence area this year for possession of their medicine and medical card.
It’s… well… it’s freaking madness is what it is. lol
