Do you think weed will ever be legal?

Sup dudes. I see this thread is a few months old. Sorry if I bring it up.

I vote yes. The legalization of marijuana would have to be step by step. First--Will be the decriminalized of marijuana. Such people as Obama and Edwards have stated in there candidacy. Then, when seen no harm done and unfortunately, ignorant people still need more tests about marijuana potential. Sooner or later (Hopefully in my lifetime) will be legalized. :jointsmile:

I vote yes. Watching this from the late 60's until today it's moved toward legalization inch by inch the entire time.

All it would take right now is for smokers to represent a solid block of voters large enough to help get a politician elected.

Say, if 25 million smokers banded into something like the "cannabis league of voters" and represented campaign funds and 25 million solid votes to swing behind candidate pot would be legal real fast.

Right now here in Ri they are considering raising the legal Poisson amount. However, i believe it will take some time before it is entirely legal

EVIL pharm companys will never allow our govt to allow weed to be legalized...

I agree with jimmy. I don't see it being legal at the federal level in my lifetime The general population is so fucking dumb.

Marijuana will most definitely become legal when people realize all the lies that have been to told them about it. A lot of people want it legalized regulated and taxed like alcohol or tobacco, the people are ahead pf the government.

State wide I'd say in the next 10 years in a lot of states. Federally, I have no idea. If you're in the west you have a pretty good shot of seeing it legalized. Places like CA, OR, WA, AZ, CO, and NV. These states have a libertarian leaning you don't find in the east nearly as much. Generally speaking; they're not fond of the government telling them what they can do. It all relates back to the old days when settlers moved out here for mining, religious persecution, and farming cheap land.

Yes, I agree with PatrickHenry. :greenthumb:

I thought it was legal already? Yah give it like 20 years in the U.S.A, and all these old Life-term senate people will die off with their old ways and people who are 20-30 now will be in office. HISTORY REPEATS ITSELF, so it will be allowed again. And really when it comes to punishment in TX, it is about the same as alcohol if not better. IONO Either way its a Misdemeanor, if you get caught driving with it, or drunk. You won't get caught at your house, hopefully, and its pretty easy to get. ITS LEGAL!!! Like im saying, just as legal as alcohol damn near. Is it me or is their like 1500 Marijuana dispensaries in the U.S.A running now? I have a feeling thats more than coffee shops in amsterdam. U and I both know that 85% of this medical shit is just a good reason to push for it being legal one way or the other. Anyone can get their card pretty much. So yah.

note: PatrickHenry's predictions were from about 2 years ago, but spot on I think. If you look at this map below you can see that legal med use at the state level is budding all across the west and select parts of the east.

My guess is Californians will pass this initiative next Nov. If they do, then as provided by the California Constitution, it will become the law of the land the next day.

If this happens, I predict Oakland and S.F. will offer fully legal cannabis sales to adults. Possibly L.A. county, too. imp:

yes. yes, we can. :jointsmile:
