when will weed be legal

[BLacK HaZe]

anyone got any truthful ideas when weed will be legal, cause ive been seeing more and more states making some acceptions soooo......any ideas

[konqrr]

I will give it a good 10-20 years, when the world has way more serious problems and people are in need of marijuana.

[funfubarman]

yeha my econ teacher told us 10 years

[yzstoned]

i'd say in 7-10years it will be accepted in a lot more parts of the country but i feel like it will be atleast 20 years before its nationally legalized recreationally

[funfubarman]

at least when i am 40 i'll be able to smoke legaly

[xblackdogx]

when the 30-40% of Americans that smoked pot get off their lazy asses and PROTEST this unconstitutional bullshit!

A moment in America's History, brought to you by marijuana:

The Constitution was destroyed SOOO many times after it was written because after the revolution, when Franklin, Adams, Washington, etc. went back to their hometowns they PARTIED IT UP [[drank excessively at local pubs]] and it seemed like no matter who the one copy went to, it still got destroyed one way or another (they all had to show off the document and it ended up being ripped, burned, lost). One time, a founding father smoked America's biggest JOINT by using a copy of the CONSTITUTION!! -- no fucking joke!
Of course, this was before they FIGURED OUT, they should have just made NUMEROUS copies to begin with!!

I'd guess that in the next twelve years, one state will finally be the first to legalize it. Of course the inevitable will happen and the feds will move in to shut it down. Then the state will sue and it will become a long ugly court battle that will eventually end up in the Supreme Court. The Court, depending on its makeup will have to decide a number of things (medicinal value, how that states law applies towards the commerce clause, or if it is a states right issue). So, who knows if marijuana will ever be legal because it could be decided by a court decision that will establish precedent.

Alright, no state has legalized a distribution-model of marijuana. The most relaxed state is by far Alaska which has removed any penalties for possession of less than an ounce as long as you smoke it at home. You may not grow, sell, or buy it though, but once you have it, you are safe.
Denver, not the state of Colorado voted to do the same thing, but police in Denver still right tickets using state law... so nothing changed.

There are still court battles pitting California against the govs for their medical distribution program. Think about these battles on a whole new state-level scale.

[Murphchas]

If its not legal in 10-20, its not gonna be legal for a long time.

more mis information In alaska you can have up to 4 ounces in your house. it is only legal if the feds do not pursue it because if the local police find out they can notify the feds

[420purplehaze420]

Im guessing if we dont make any more progress in the next 5 years, it wont be legalized for a long time, theres people and groups that have been trying for decades.....

I dont want to lose hope but to me it really doesnt matter, i probably will still get better deals from my supplier then crappy gov regulated weed, and i already smoke it virtually everywhere other people smoke cigarettes.

but then again i live in canada, the land of the free, where the pigs just take your weed and send you on your marry way, unless your selling then they treat you like a crack head.

NORML got a great map it only takes a sec to look :)

Weed will never be legal. Too much money is being made from Pharmaceutical
companies and state and Federal governments for it to ever be legal.

It is all about money. Get busted in your car, they can confiscate your car. Grow in your home they can take that.

Billions of dollars are made from medications that are way overpriced. Why would they want people to have a cheap natural painkilling plant when they can charge so much for their pill?

It will never happen. Sad but true.

[Reefer Rogue]

Lol, it would be funny if it was tomorrow. In reality, i'd say 10 to 15 years.

[Herbal]

It is legal for Alaskan residents to have up to a quarter pound in house for personal use.

[marvelous22]

I really have no clue, but i think im the only person here that doesnt want it legalized. Legalizing marijuana i think will kill the mood of doing it and not make it as fun to smoke, buy, and hide. Just my opinion though.

[intrepidus6]

I would say around december 26th 2012. Look on the Mayan calender, and Nostrodamus' predictions, alot of things are going to change big time on that date.

Say that to the Dutch and they would laugh there heads off. ;)

[funfubarman]

you can grow in alsaka as long as it is under 25 plants chenck normal

yeah...your the only one

[IamTheWalrus]

yeah...your the only one

agreed. Meh who really knows when it will be legalized not anytime soon as long as the conservatives are in power in Canada :cursing:

[lil josh]

weed is being legalised on the 24th december 2008

[Way2many]

Never, you think they would have made it illegal just so one day they can say yup we change our minds...

[Chemicalchance4.20]

Never, you think they would have made it illegal just so one day they can say yup we change our minds...


Didn't they do that with alcohol?

[Way2many]

Didn't they do that with alcohol?

Yeah which they can tax and control.

who do you know that makes there own hard liquor and beer just so they
wouldnt have to go to the store to get it.?

* in a world where marijuna is legal and you can buy a pack of 20 pre-rolled joints, one man grows his own at home and doesnt have to pay a god-damn thing or even leave the house.*

[mafyew]

what i find rediculus is the weed tax stamp laws. How the HELL do the think they can tax something that is illegal? It makes no sense to me.

"No taxation without representation!"

Self-incrimination for the win?

[aeonblue11]

I don't think it would be like that if it were legal. There are too many varieties of weed to have them come in packs like cigarettes. If it was available in that form then it would be schwagg. just like the tobacco in cigarettes is of low quality and half of whats in the cigarette isnt real tobacco, its just the "reject" tobacco from the factory cooked down in a large tank to make freebase nicotine and processed into paper and cut up.

real, good quality herb would be sold in special shops, you'd go inside and there would be tons of large cookie jars filled with buds of lots of different strains. and you would be able to buy accessories like pipes and bongs and papers...etc

that just my dream anyway.

you cant just pack your bags and move to amsterdam. its an extremely crowded city, it would be next to impossible for me, an american who cannot speak dutch to find any kind of work there.

[MastaChronic]

thats why they have prostitution.............

True, which is why the Dutch system is the way ahead(if somewhat flawed).

I think decriminalisation would be the best idea, allow it to be sold in regulated, licenced premices with an age limit(probably 18 or 21 depending on where you are) and grown at home for personal use with a limit on amount of plants you can grow simultaneously

And unlike in Holland supply to the licenced premices should also be tolerated and regulated.

[Chemicalchance4.20]

The last time I was in Amsterdam I got speaking to a girl from Washingston who was living and working there(in some sort of office environment) and just learning dutch as she went along with no problems.

If I moved to Holland I wouldn't live in Amsterdam though.

[yzstoned]

honestly though i know this sounds stupid on principle but if i could buy weed hell yea i would.. even though u can grow it i'd still buy it as long as big corporate companies didnt process it nd put all this gross shit in it like the big tobacco companies do

id grow too but not on a large scale jus a few plants.. plus u need weed while your trees are still growing

[Mosiah]

Hopefully within the next decade so I can enjoy going to cannabis shops in my relatively youthful years.

[4gan2ja0]

...i thought that is when the mayan calendar ends???

exactly

[big smoke07]

Never.

[halo]

When WWIII happens and we are left with a shambles of a government that cant enforce any laws. When that happens i have no idea. It could be within the next couple years. Or it might never happen. The only other possible way it could be legalized is if we had some kind of revolution and had a new government installed. Maybe if a libertarian got elected to be president in 08 or something. Otherwise no.

[intrepidus6]

* in a world where marijuna is legal and you can buy a pack of 20 pre-rolled joints, one man grows his own at home and doesnt have to pay a god-damn thing or even leave the house.*

I disagree. How many people do you know who grow there own tobacco?

[intrepidus6]

...i thought that is when the mayan calendar ends???

Hahaha!!!!

Hahaha, almost there...

[pabloescobar209]

They will never legalized it because doing so would force the government to cut millions of dollars from the DEA budget resulting is massive layoffs, causing thousands of DEA agents to lose there good paying jobs... As it is so many people depend on marijuana being illegal just to sustain a living.

[funfubarman]

Yeah which they can tax and control.

My cusin makes his own but he also makes meth so.....

[funfubarman]

wrong.....more misinformation

Possession of less than 25 plants is protected under the Alaska Constitutionâ??s right to privacy (See Ravin v. Alaska). Possession of 25 or more marijuana plants is â??Misconduct involving a controlled substance in the fourth degreeâ?� and is punishable by a fine of up to $50,000 or five years in prison. http://www.norml.org/index.cfm?wtm_view=&Group_ID=4522

[nikweiser]

when all of this generation of younger adults/kids grow up and all the conservatives are out of the picture and its the 70s again! WOO lol that would be tight though
