    Because I have as much right to vote "no" as you have to vote "yes". That's all you need to know, that not all of us think the same, & that's actually okay.

    Will you smoke it when it passes? 😉

    Weed is now like alcohol was in the twenties....forbidden but commonly utilized. Soon "Prohibition" against weed will go the way of prohibition against alcohol...and prohibition against gay marriage.

    Nope. Never have smoked it before & have no interest in ever trying it.

    I DO like fish! LOL

  • It doesn't matter what anyone thinks, it will be legal soon if not this year. It's funny cuz ppl voting no are just delaying the inevitable, were fucked anyways cause our country is poor and stupid and wants socialists as president to keep everything fair for ppl that don't want to work. Weed is the least of my worries

    I don't think you comprehend the fundamental issue I and others have with the bill. I am somewhere on the no side of neutral on legalization. I am 100% opposed to the 10 idiots preying on your desire to get high. I will vote against for sure. IF the bill was amended to allow licensed open market AND remove edibles I'd obstain. If the bill did both of the above AND was only medical I'd vote yes. The bill as it stands is common political practice on all bills. Put a shiny diamond on a pile of shit knowing most people won't look past the diamond.
  • I'm going to put this as simply as possible. If you vote no on issues 3 you are voting to support terrorism and criminal wealth. Do you guys know how much weed gets imported to this country from the cartels? Seriously its a lot... almost all the cheap weed in this country is brought in from mexico. So in light of that is this bill really all that bad? someone is going to get rich because legal or illegal weed is still going to be here and a lot of it... so maybe its better to actually put that money into the state and the citizens of the state instead of funding the cartels. People can always vote to reform the bill later on if they want to adjust it.

  • BFR- +1

  • What's more concerning to me than people believing Marijuana should still be illegal...

    THE FACT THAT SO MANY FANS HAVE GIVEN UP ON THE SEASON!!! WHAT THE FUCK!

    We're not even at the BYE yet and you can't see the Playoffs? It's a long season... we're 7 games in. There is time to turn it around. Believe. We need to will them to wins. We Bark Together.

    ALSO! JOSH GORDON?.... Baggage aside, if he were to go onto the open market tomorrow, he'd be a first round draft pick... No, scratch that, he'd be a -TOP 5- first round Draft Pick. Of course, you're going to say, "But, he isn't playing" or "he'll just get suspended again". Josh Gordon WILL be a HOFer, bet.

    I know you are trying to massage your thread.....but it really ought to stick to one subject....and that is the marijuana issue.....which could get shelved to the Political Board.

    10 people against legal weed?

    Why?

    I am overall undecided longer term on how I feel about legal weed. I am however smart enough to see through the well orchestrated ads about poor little children who can't get medical weed and job creation. If their genuine concern were anything like The ads they"d have no issue with growing for personal use and licensing smaller caregiver farms. The bill is a straight cash grab that counts on either sympathy or the fact many don't care about the bullshit as long as they can buy weed. It's a bad bill.

    ^^This 1000%, couldn't have said it any better. Just because it'll leagalize weed doesnt make it a good thing. This bill is all about big buisness trying to swoop in and monopolize the market. If people would be patient, next year would be the year to legalize.

    On Josh, yes. Full offseason next year with the team to get reaclimated with the team and i see no reason why he cant be very helpful as long as he toes the line.

    Playoffs,ehh... My heart says yes, my brain says not likely. The biggest reason for optimism right now is even though we're 2-5, we are 1-0 in the AFC North. So we actually arent in as bad of shape that our overall record says we are. No room for error though.....

    This is straight up ignorant as fuck! If you dont think for one second that the drug cartels wont adjust your nuts. They'll still smuggle tons and most definitely have the resources to open up grow houses up and down your street... These people kidnap, kill, and behead motherfuckers to get what they want. You think a bill in Ohio is gonna stop that shit lol

    what i think is ignorant as fuck is that you obviously believe doing nothing will be even more effective. In fact even the rand corp published a study showing the impact of legalization on these cartels... all you have to do is research a little.

    Hold up, i never said anything about not doing nothing. Im 70/30 for legal pot,,,, with the RIGHT bill. What i was talking about in my post was about your supporting terrorism mularkey and thinking just cause we leagalize pot the cartels are just gonna close up shop and go home. Yeah they will take somewhat of a hit but if you dont think they wont still be making money hand over fist....

    Looks like the question was for or against issue 3. And since somebody might make some money a lot of people are against issue 3.

    Well I dont believe that they are just going to disappear or anything because of the bill and i never said that... I just think it will affect them. Either way, while waiting for the right bill to come along, they are making more money and killing more and more people

    They probably won't sell dope.....they will just bring in other drugs....like this:

    Organized crime will always find something that falls through the cracks of legality: booze in Prohibition. Dope, other drugs, Prostitutes. Whatever.
