That's what weed does, man, it makes you a car-centaur. A morbidly obese car-centaur.

With a backwards torso to boot.

That was both creepy as hell and hilarious!

You think? I thought he was just fat enough to have front butt.

That was both creepy as hell and hilarious!

Check out his fake truck ads, they are pretty good as well. I've watched a few of his others, the Korean guy in the US Civil War is pretty funny as well. They are all the same "morbidly obese people moving in weird ways" AI.

I am NOT a Democrat, but I want to see MJ decriminalized.

I agree. Anymore I hate the smell almost as bad as I do cigarette smoke. But people are going to continue to use it weather it is legal or not. And weather it is harmful or not. It isn't more harmful than a few things that are legal right now. Our local Walmart is in Michigan. Every time I go in there, it wreaks of pot smoke. And still the world turns.

If they could only work on it some more and this time make it less stinky.

Wasn't around it a lot when younger but I do not remember it smelling as bad as it does now.

I agree.
Over the years, the people who use alcohol as their drug of choice have been the ones that have given me BY FAR the most trouble when they use it.
I'm so sick of guys who drink, then get the idea they're the world's toughest man.

Off the top of my head, I can't think of anybody who smoked weed ever giving me trouble, and I was at times around a lot of people who used it, especially when I went to school at IU Bloomington.

LMAO so I just got back from a conference that covers LEO/Identity/DMV/Customs/Borders data sharing.

Inside the dems there's two wolves. One wants to expunge/seal all marijuana related offenses so pot smokers can re-integrate society at large. One wants to keep those criminal dispositions because it will help them disqualify more people from owning guns.

Though not related to weed, the most ironically comedic fight in that conference was between the LGBT Legal Advocacy Alliance and Southern Poverty Law ganging up on the lawyers from the White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention (WHOVP). The WHOVP helped Tennessee craft "new gun violence prevention legislations that in the wake of Nashville that paints transgender individuals as mentally too defective to own firearms." The LGBTs saw it as "a great betrayal" and "would've never supported the President if his solution was to throw more trans kids in jail." SPL was also miffed because "when cities passed assault weapon restrictions, we saw a 300% uptick in arrests for minorities, and minorities were almost 10 times more likely to be red flagged!"

That sounds very entertaining but there's no way I could have sat through it.

 

[bgcatty]

If they could the misguided woke libtard Democrats would even try to decriminalize criminality!

 

[BackFromDC]

It took every fiber on my being to not laugh. I sat next to a uniformed LEO (I think Arizona State Trooper) and he almost died laughing, he ran to the hallway with ungodly speed. It was both awkward and funny for several conference attendees.

Here's some more dirty hippies just wanting to get high

Biden administration plans to reclassify marijuana, easing restrictions nationwide

Cannabis is currently classified along with drugs like heroin and LSD. The administration is expected to reschedule it into a category that includes Tylenol with codeine and steroids.

its about damn time!
For years I've said if they wont delist it, at least list it appropriately. Look at the criteria for Schedule 1 drugs: (From drugs.com who also notes how current clinical use doesnt jive with the definition in that last paragraph)

Schedule I drugs are those that have the following characteristic according to the United States Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA):

• The drug or other substance has a high potential for abuse.
• The drug or other substance has no currently accepted medical treatment use in the U.S.
• It has a lack of accepted safety for use under medical supervision.

According to federal law, no prescriptions may be written for Schedule I substances, and they are not readily available for clinical use.

A substance does not need to be listed as a controlled substance by the DEA to be treated as a Schedule I substance for criminal prosecution. A controlled substance analogue (for example, a "designer drug") is a substance which is structurally or pharmacologically similar to a Schedule I or Schedule II substance, specifically used for human consumption, and is not an approved medication in the United States.

NOTE: Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC, marijuana) is still considered a Schedule 1 drug by the DEA, even though some U.S. states have legalized marijuana for personal, recreational use or for medical use.

A political football, used for who ever’s purposes at the time, then discarded until next time it’s needed for leverage. JMO.

If they took all the money from the persecution/prosecution of the dumb*** stoners we could save ourselves a large chunk of tax money. All the way from courts, judges, Pros. Atty. to jail, feed, clothes, housing, educational demands, and all related costs. That’s a lot of tax dollars for a bunch of guys that only want to play video games n eat twinkies.

One step further, tax hell out of it and give the money back to the tax payer. Ya, that works for me. Let Darwin decide.

How is this going to work? Right now in many States there are dispensaries selling a Schedule I controlled substance. Now as a DEA Schedule III-V drug, will it become more restricted?

As @Leadeye says, always follow the money. Look for the crony-capitalists to be out in force.
