TYB
You know, the whole argument of cannabis I think is argued against by people that never have indulged or have an agenda for big industries of some sort, but I'm willing to bet they enjoy a drink or two on their time off, and have little problem with others imbibing the sauce as well, so I'll use alcohol as a parallel example.
When I hear the argument in the media, "Pot is too strong now. It's causing psychosis. It's a gateway drug. I just want to smoke a joint and have a light buzz instead of being zombified." then I hear "All I can find is moonshine. It's hard on the liver. I just want to drink the same volume of moonshine as the volume of beer I used to when younger but it fucks me up too much." That's not a problem where its legally controlled, you can buy beer, hard spirits, moonshine, even non-alcoholic white claws if you want, and I've never met anyone that came down with psychosis because of it, ever.
And, pot is as much a gateway to harder drugs as masturbation is a gateway to rape. I'd argue alcohol is more of a gateway to harder drugs because it lowers inhibitions and clouds judgement. Pot on the other hand, for me anyway, increases inhibitions and focus slightly, but others' mileage or road for that may vary.
It's an intoxicant though. Mostly controlled through illicit means but there are legal spots, but there is no argument that it is not a cash cow for crime. It should be left up to each state to decide for themselves how they want to handle it is what I think, but I'd ask them to give it the same consideration as they do to alcohol when they make their decisions.
Not to mention, of those two, one causes more death in society and destruction in household. I speak with intimate familiarity. Gonna be a while before I ever mention that subject again.
Probably not a bad idea. Some of them are pretty old and could be damaged. Prevents people from hurting themselves by falling off of them too.
He means they think it's in the dirt rather than in themselves.
Didn't Elon spend like $40M in Super Bowl commercial time or something, or in total making them or something? Seem to remember reading something about that. Might have to tune in and watch the game.
Well, I wonder what kind of reception POTUS Trump will receive today when he arrives. Willing to bet the people that not just read those articles but believe those articles won't be the type to watch the Super Bowl in the first place.
