Do you think weed will ever be legal?
In the US? Yes most def. Within our lifetimes for sure. Who knows if I will still be puffing at that point, but I will always support legalization.
Actually I don't feel nationwide decrim is to far off. After that its only a small step away.
It really depends on how this next election goes. Vote Democratic. All of the Candidates Dem candidates have a really good stance when it comes to Marijuana. All have stated that they would never use federal troops/powers to arrest MM users. This is a step in the right direction.
Candidates Positions on Medical Marijuana
Biden has the lowest with a B+, most have A ratings.
Legalization will be a process, it won't happen over night.
Essentially, most Americans are realizing its a waste of resources. My city has major issues regarding crack cocaine use, simply put most police feel its a waste of time to arrest marijuana users, they may dump out your bag, but they won't arrest you. I haven't heard of a marijuana possesion charge in my city for years. I've been puffing for almost a decade.
It won't ever be sold like cigs, more closer to the Cali system, without the perscription requirement.
Think about it, more and more Americans smoke marijuana at least once in there lifetimes. Even if some don't enjoy it, how many feel it should be illegal after smoking it. More and more Political candidates are being frank about their usage, Barack Obama in particular is willing to take an honest look at marijuana.
Even nationwide decrim would be a victory. Many American metro areas are going this way already. Of course I'd like to see full legalization, but if its decrimned nation wide I would be happy.

We, as free people, who have freedom, should have the CHOICE to put whatever we choose in our bodies. Now if it DOES fuck you up too much, like alcohol, their will be laws in accordance. Maybe a DWS....driving while stoned. lol But, I want to be able to do whatever the fuck I want to do to my body without the government placing me in jail. Isn't that suppose to be freedom?

Also, the 2 things that have little medical benefit and ARE legal are alcohol and cigarettes. Although they have some medical benefit, marijuana has 100 times that. If you'd like to know most of its benefits Storm Crow made a very useful post of all her marijuana related information.
Here's the link to her thread. Sit there for a couple of days and read it all. EVERYTHING.

i sure as hell hope not,,,otherwise id lose alot of money:D
itd be cool, but like you guys said, too many politic/corporate bullshit. the herb is too free and liberating for the powers at be to legalize it....people might actually think for themselves instead of echoing the monotone feed of media/society.
im gonna go with the rouge..maybe someday when all of the old bullshit dies off and changes. then again at that point there might not be civilization..hard 2 say man:confused:

i i think it will be legalized. it's to a point where just about everyone has tried it. there are politicians are publicly against it, but they do it in the "closet". drug testing can be dodged easy with other drugs. thc lasts so long. that is what the drug tests test for. my point in that is to many people own investments in the manufacturing companies that manyfacture the tests. legalization would put those companies out of bidness'. that's just one obsticle. the culture is growing rapidly. growing is enjoyable. tasting different strainds is hitting like wine tasting is to wine conisures. head shops, cafes, hemp products, accessory manufacturing, these are things that i think will be realized as big bidness' when it catches on. i think it will be at large real sone.
sorry for the babbling and spelling
Do you think weed will ever be legal?
