will it ever be decriminalized?
Do u think personal possession/consumption of marijuana (and not any other drugs) for recreational and/or medical purposes will be decriminalized/tolerated legally within the next 5 to 7 years? (i dont mean legalized, but turned into something like a civil matter such as traffic violation)
how about growing for the same purpose?
if u dont mind, please state your opinion along with reasonsflyingimam Reviewed by flyingimam on . will it ever be decriminalized?

Soon the medical states will overwhelm the feds and they wont have any choice. The fear is dissipating and the truth is becoming clear. A lot of work ahead but i predict within the next 5-10 years it will be legal with the exception of driving on it. And they will try to put a tax or ban on growing your own but that will eventually get overwhelmed and will have growing legal too. There is no stopping the truth. The ball is rolling.

there are too many people making too much money off of cannabis being illegal for it to be realistic to see any legalization in the near future.

The US civil war was less about slavery and more about economic freedoms that states wanted. do you really think that a group of states is going to get together and use MMJ as a platform to fight back the feds?
how that sounded so negative for something I care for so much and want to come true.well, on the bright side if genies are real and I find one Ill take on for the team and use one of my wishes for us!

its a simple matter for states to keep their mouth shut, at least be happy they mumble somethin to feds.
states get money from the fed, biiiiiig money. so why would u complain in a tough manner? just to see your share cut down in comparison to other 49 who keep silent?
this is a matter that can only be solved by massive public pressure and can only be solved @ congress/executive order levels, not local. our problem is a FEDERAL agency called DEA, they simply just dont care about your state given rights in violation of their bread n butter federal rules

I think it'll take a minimum of a Q of a century at least. Realistically though, i'd say 50 years or 100.. Hope i'm wrong, hope i'm wrong, but i'll still be blazing somehow, or inside a cell writing a book.

i agree, pot will never be legal.
the whole idea about medical marijuana is really a joke, we all know it. there might be a few things marijuana can somewhat make you feel better about but its mainly for people who just want to get stoned (im in that group as a med mj patient) and the lists I see spam'd on here for pot helping all sorts of things is crazy. there is NO PROOF, just saying it 'might' help. well aspirin might help too.
sure we like to get stoned, so just admit it rather than perpetuate sum fantasy.
