This follows reports Tuesday that the Biden administration is considering reclassifying marijuana as a less dangerous drug, easing restrictions nationwide.

@hotfightinghistory9224 Thing is smaller than a virginia slim. //WHEN YOU HAVE TO PAY. MORE THAN $800.00. FOR AN OUNCE OF A WEED. BECAUSE THE STATE WANTS CASH. YOUR MEDICATION . HAS TO BE SMALLER.
so just gunne ingnore the price of weed here like 200 for an oz is crazy
Its only reclassified for illegal immigrants.
Lol. Joe Biden has nothing to do with wanting to reclassify cannabis. He was specifically against it.
It means we are gonna have a forgetfull stoned population doing dangerous jobs.
Whoever rolled the joint the guy is smoking in the thumbnail should be ashamed of themselves. Thing is smaller than a virginia slim.
For those of you going into business,…………we need more edibles!

If you Eat a handfull of Tylenol it will be the Last Headache you ever have🤷🏾♂️🤔 Whats the confusion about a Plant 🪴
It means cigarette companies will be right along soon enough. I can c the campaign now. SMOOTH AND TASTES GREAT.
It’s nice to see change for a plant that was classified schedule 1 by corrupt political racism being reconsidered when it was initially sold in every corner drug store over the counter.
POT LOVER’S SONG – 2024 $$
I got out my pipe stuffed it with pot
You better believe it held a whole lot.
I whipped out a lighter thumbed up a flame
Sucked down that smoke which comforts my brain.
I tried alcohol smoked cigarettes
They did nothing but give me regrets.
My mom had arthritis could not walk around
I rolled her a joint she danced on the ground.
I thought I was losing my lovemaking knack
After I smoked some to me it came back.
Soon I decided prices were high
I searched for some ground I wouldn’t have to buy.
I bargained for seeds from smokers all around
Got in my truck and drove out of town.
I walked through the woods where wild birds nest
Found me the meadow I thought was the best.
I dug up the ground sowed all my seeds
Said a small prayer for strong, healthy weeds.
I watered at night with a five-gallon pail
Mosquitoes went hungry for I wore a veil.
Seven months went by; I thought I would die
Till the Halloween moon was high in the sky.
At night I went out, in a camouflage suit
Used my corn knife to chop down the loot.
I hung it up to dry where it could not be found.
Came back and got it, when it had turned brown.
I trimmed off the buds, stuffed them in bags
Called all my friends and passed out free drags.
In less than a week my crop was gone
I flew to St. Thomas with a love hungry blonde!!

I Love Tinctues.
Great steps forward. For once I’m actually smiling at the news. ❤
I keep forgetting that marijuana is supposed to be illegal in most places.
No more China made THC-a. Stay away from that kids. It’s poison.
It means once again this Administration is lawless. Doesn’t want to enforce border laws and now drug laws. The Press and Democrats better not get upset when Republicans start ignoring laws you care about like gun laws.
Stunning?
We look like a Stupid Nation. Just smoke it and stop "doing more research". Toke Toke Toke Toke Toke!!
Let’s just be real. These people don’t GAF about you getting addicted to anything at all. The only concern they have is that someone would be able to sell weed and become rich and not have to pay taxes, because it can be grown at your home. They want to be able to regulate your money. Every penny of it.
DESCHEDULE is useless if I can’t home grow.
If I can’t home grow, it’s not legal. It’s regulated.
In NJ home grow is still illegal because Scutari wants more money, not to help people.
Sounds like a nothing burger. Pandering for votes.
It’s not a “stunning” move, it’s long overdue. And it’s called cannabis. Maryj is an antiquated and frankly a racist word. It’s like calling drum sticks nickword rattlers
Will D.O.T stop testing for it?

Do anything for votes.
What’s all the fuss sell the darn thing like cigarettes in packs !
TIME for this prohibition, based on racism, to END!! That will solve this problem. The problem is CA govt controls every aspect of it, whereby keeping prices HIGH and by doing this it encourages the black markets. It’s a weed so it grows well on just water alone.
His son smokes 🚬 😳 crack ask him wich one would he suck duck lollipops 🍭 weed or crack 🤔 😂
OK stupid question 🙄 why was this not inserted into a huge 3000 page bill and passed into law already ? Think about what else will be attached to this bill moving forward and whom will benefit…
Long over do
Hey Mr. "DEMOCRATSAREBEYONDSTUPID" Get a job.
We need to sue the federal government for poisoning our country
"Stunning move"??? WTF!? He ran on cannabis reform and said 2 years ago that they needed to reclassify….what’s stunning?!? dumb people shouldn’t be allowed to read the teleprompters on the news
This is so Big PHARMA can take over the industry. MONEY MONEY MONEY greedy bastards.
