Will Obama Legalize Marijuana?

[zenneson]

The pubic is getting less ignorant about marijuana and once the news of how it has and will benefit California's economy becomes well known. This subject will come up in a lot of political conversations. This will probably be followed by backing for legalization or decriminalization. The question is will Obama have the bravery to support it? Would have McCain? Ganja Wise wants to know what you think.

obama's been paid to "think straight" about drugs and such..probably millions upon millions of dollars to say that legalization is not in his vocabulary..he will increase the national debt though, that's the change we can believe in

[krums1000]

He pretty unequivocally said no to this already, though I think it was before the election where you can't touch anything vaguely controversial. Nonetheless I doubt it; Barney Frank introduced a bill for decrim but I doubt much of anyone will touch it.

If anything maybe the Governator's replacement will do it and others states will follow suit.

" will Obama legalize marijuana ? " ... :wtf: ... no personal offense meant, but that's just about the dumbest question I've ever heard ... do you have NO comprehension or concept, of Obama's whole administration ? ... simple version: PHONY, PHONY, PHONY ... stop wasting your time with him, start doing your research for the next election, and leave the gullibility behind ... :smokin:

I dont think he will. It sucks but its the truth hes the first african american pres you think hes gonna do anything the people pullin the strings tell him NOT to do? like the aboves said hes probably getting millions to keep doing the same old thing everyone does.

Change we can believe in? lol the only thing that changed was the color of the skin of the man sittin in the fucking chair thats it. He lied his ass off from the getgo like EVERY OTHER POLITICIAN DOES when we americans get to vote its usually between two bowls of shit the only difference is the smell. I dont think anyone has fairly won an election here since the 1800's and even thats debatable whoever is willing to play ball is put into the seat and just as quickly removed once they go against the games creators lol

A part off the question was weather or not McCain would have either.

Also which politicians if any do you have faith in to have enough courage to support marijuana law reform. For example Ron Paul.

Please comment here and see what others are saying about the issue.

Ron paul would have pushed for it mccain i dont think so I think it woulda been even less likely he would have if anything I think it would have made it worse having him in office. At least tolerence is out there now. Tolerence isnt acceptence though.

What you could do is do what I did go to NORML.com and check out the people in office or who are planning to in that list for your area and see who to vote for when its time its what I did Id idnt even know some of the names on there and that they were pro decrim etc and also on that some of the people I WOULD have filled in that dot for were AGAINST it

more often than not on those ballots you have to actually put in the persons name which I did and the way I got it was from NORML sorry to rant earlier lol :jointsmile:

If it does become legal, I wonder how they will rectify all the lives they have destroyed? Kind of hard to admit the myths were false and politically motivated after all the destruction its caused. Time for a real change, get honest people elected to office. Not political parasites, fear mongers or shit-talkers. :smokin:

Its a good idea but look how long they took to apologize and make restitutions for anything theyve fucked up on. Its like trying to get family with one kid who broke somethin to say he did it. You know damn well he did it hes the only fucking kid in the house the problem is getting him to admit to it.

imagine all the poor folks back int he 70's and 80's who got like fucking 20 years and shit for just buying and smoking it we think we got it bad today but man...if ida been around back then id probably be in the pen until i was too old to give a shit about goin back just for tokin:wtf:

Dude, he's already said he's stopping prosecuting legal mmj users in states that have such decriminalization laws. I guess it all just comes down to proper education and proof of concept. I saw a Law & Order as well as a Glee episode a few weeks ago when the news spread that they were advocating the use of mmj(well Glee didn't do it too well, kind of made fun of it). If I had to guess, this is just a trial run to see if there's any merit to decriminalizing/legalizing it and IF he does continue it will be later on in his term. Let's hope he does, afterall there's more non-violent mj users/dealers in prison than black people, at least in my state. Lol, not saying blacks should be arrested or anything.
