California is thinking about legalizing it

[Loki_999]

I always liked one of the world's described in Robert A. Heinlein's Number of the Beast.

Its a world where laws are pretty relaxed, you can do whatever you want, as long as it doesn't hurt someone else. Everyone is responsible for their own actions.

The example given (i think) was a guy driving (drunk i believe) ran over a child and broke the kids legs. The other drivers jumped out of their cars, took the guy from his car, and then proceeded to break his legs.

Ok, its not perfect, a bit of rough justice, and i can't see many people voting for such a system, but it certainly has something to be said for it.

Legalize the bloody plant and let people enjoy their weed. Be sensible. Driving on weed is dangerous. You think you are driving fast but you are actually only doing 10mph in a 60 zone and pissing other drivers off.

As for weed in relation to guns... LOL. Come on! Guns and weed do not mix. You can rarely be arsed to stand up and change the TV channel if you can't find the remote. Taking a gun to do anything with is probably not going to be on your agenda. Someone breaks into your home when you are stoned and your reaction is most likely to be to offer them some chips and to sit down and chill and listen to some Marley or Floyd.

I can either tell the future, or affect the future. I can read minds. I can read English, and some french. I can not read sheet music though. Ummmmmm... I make a mean french toast?

I was able to crush cans from across the room once, I could watch them crush and hear the sounds of the metal bending but when I stop focusing the cans would return to normal... but then the LSD wore off... hey wait, I see a pattern forming. Apparently LSD give you superpowers!

I like you more and more Adrian.

Let the lemmings do whatever they want, leave us alone. Libertarianism. Mmmmmmm.

I thought you opposed my opinion on letting people have guns? If you want to be a Libertarian you have to oppose prohibition, and that includes guns.

But not hand grenades and rocket launchers.

You have to understand that street-level marijuana is a lot more dangerous than what the government studies. The "market" is created by people, not the government. So, if anyone can grow it, we'll have a new economy for the strong drug as opposed to the "over-the-counter" weak drug (if that made any sense).

It didn't make sense. I'm assuming when you refer to this "more dangerous" "street-level" substance you mean more potent pot with higher THC levels.

To say that's more dangerous is like saying a litre of water is more dangerous than a cup. It's more potent, but that means the average stoner just uses less. Do you drink a bottle of whiskey like you drink a bottle of wine?

I was referring to California becoming an exporter (illegally) of marijuana if it was legalized. You would have an increase in immigration so that the drug can be trafficked back to another country at a higher cost, specifically Mexico. This is just a thought though, hence "this is a long shot."

Long shot is an understatement.

You won't see anyone going out of their way to smuggle marijuana into Mexico. You really think California legalizing pot would completely reverse the drug trade? Seeing how nobody in their right mind would want Mexican ditchweed when there is a legal, high-grade American alternative available, there would be an ABUNDANCE of weed available to anyone in Mexico who wanted it.


Happy 4/20.
