Recreational Marijuana Going Legal in Michigan

Cannabis has mild psychedelic properties.

Introspection is nothing to fear, if you’re aware that it’s happening. It’s a teacher.

Yay Missouri!

Some of us are just getting sick and tired of health insurance and one doctor visit after another for preventive and relief meds that work for a time, than cease to do so.

A cash and go business like a marijuana dispensary does away with that middle man. The employees can be helpful as far as choosing some form of the drug that may work for you.

Can’t wait to go to the dispensary near me as it appears they have expanded their edibles menu and the chocolate bars are more reasonably priced than last time.

Amen to that. I’d much rather just stay home and give my body the very cannabinoids it was designed to subsist/medicate on, and feel fine doing it.

I would like to own that piece of glassware.

For tobacco use only, of course.

Do you use MJ medicinally? I seem to remember something to that effect. Apologies in advance if that’s wrong.

Not me. Hard to imagine a medical situation that the benefit would be worth it. Even cancer treatment side effects are best combated with diet and PT.

Then you have done very little research.

I like many have the sad experience of seeing family members go through cancer treatment and medicinal marijuana is effective.

Not sure when they were throwing up and exhausted And in pain from the treatment they felt like eating a special diet or having Physcal Therapy. Unless I am mistaken in what you meant by PT.

Of course physical activity is important in cancer treatment but you also have to be realistic.

You are a little off on my POV.

I am fine with those who want to use THC as a pain relief agent. It should be legal for that purpose.

For my own personal self I can not envision complicating a medical condition by using THC.

I am against legalizing for recreational use…It should only be a misdemeanor to do so.

I would encourage the Federal government to defer to the states the legal status of cannibus and THC.

I think I am rather liberal on the issue.

I am not so compassionate with cocaine and heroin. They are deadly and should be fought by all means at our disposal.

:statue_of_liberty:

Does not compute.

Why would it need to?

I say make it a lesser crime. akin to underage drinking, and leave it up to the states to set the standards.

:man_shrugging:t3:

Appreciate the clarification.

I sort of agree with you on heroin and cok but Americans from all demographics have shown they have a huge appetite for those drugs. Makes me wonder if these drugs should be legalized.

The war on heroin and coke will never be wont simply because of the demand.

We also have to rid ourselves of the stereotype that drugs are taken by the poorest in society. I was a bit late to that realization myself. My eyes were opened when back in 2005 I went to a party and was a bit shocked to see individuals who portrayed themselves as pillars of the local community indulging in all sort of illegal drug activity (not to mention shennigans). i really was naive back then.

You’re not “rather liberal” on the issue if you think it should not be legal. Nor are you anything resembling “small government” or “liberty-minded.”

Why should an adult smoking weed be treated like an underage drinker?

I find willful mental impairment to be a drag on society and should be discouraged rather than encouraged.

:man_shrugging:t3:

Then you’re not “rather liberal” or liberty-minded on the topic, and you believe we need big government nanny state to decide what’s best for us.

Those are your definitions. I am at a different place on that scale and for society to operate best there needs to be checks and balances on a lot of public behavior.

Mental impairment cannot just be left at home behind closed doors.

We see posts here every day confirming this.

:man_shrugging:t3:

Well no, they’re not my definition. If you don’t believe rec pot should be legal, your stance is not “rather liberal” on the topic, because liberals believe in legalization. As do libertarians.

Your stance is the standard, authoritarian conservative stance on the issue. You believe we need nanny state to police our behavior.

I agree, I am very sensitive. Anything more than 5mg for me gives me heavy anxiety.

Who is the authoritarian here?

We are all free to consider ourselves at any point on the liberal conservative spectrum that fits.

I was kind enough to share.

:man_shrugging:t3:

The one who wants big nanny government to control our behavior.

There’s nothing rather liberal about believing that recreational pot should be illegal.

I was kind enough to point out that what you shared is not a rather liberal stance but it is a very standard conservative stance. A big government authoritarian stance. A nanny state stance.
