Is Marijuana Legalization Inevitable In The US?
Every ballot initiative involving the decriminalization or legalization of marijuana passed in the 2020 election. The Democratic-controlled House also passed the MORE Act in early December, which would legalize marijuana at the federal level and implement sweeping regulations surrounding the drug. These developments reveal something important about the shift in the marijuana debate: Marijuana may be one of the truly bipartisan issues in the U.S. right now.

Is Marijuana Legalization Inevitable In The US?
they will never stop the fight..oppression of people is in their DNA…too much money in the courts, jails etc.
Why would we call it marijuana if that’s the name they use to make it illegal they have to trick the farmers so that they will vote to make it illegal and cannabis will never be legal unless we can grow it our selves without persecution
I like Ronald Reagan but he was totally wrong about marijuana it should be legalized and should be legalized today for recreational and for medical use all adults should be able to get the same amount of THC in marijuana as they getting 80 proof of alcohol in a bar or a liquor store which is equivalent of 20% THC is equivalent of 80 proof of alcohol
same amount no different
Accept
Marijuana helps the human body and alcohol destroys the human body and mind
I’m a Republican and I believe they should legalize marijuana for recreational use for adults only.
And I also believe that she use it for medical because people that’s going through chemo because they have cancer or seizures post-traumatic stress
Or people like me that believe that it should be legalized for recreational use .
Because
I have seizures post-traumatic stress
and I costly have back pain because the bullet hit my spine and I have
ADHD
It’s madness!?! Like this plant should never have been made illegal anywhere on our beautiful planet!?!! Like if there is a God he or she actually put it here for us all use!?!! And sure tobacco should be illegal everywhere?! All tobacco does is cause addiction and numerous types of cancers!?! It’s madness folks!?!
It should not b federally illegal & up 2 each state 2 make their own weed laws
how many of yall blaze up and watch vids like this? XD
ST🛑P THE FEDERAL SEIZURES OF PRIVATE PROPERTIES…
#FEDERALLY LEGALIZE CANNABIS N🪴W!!
SIGN THE ACLU PETITION TO PASS THE MORE BILL LEGALIZE CANNABIS. N🪴W!!!
Sick and tired of being MADE to feel like a criminal. I just want to be HAPPY and FREE. MY CHOICE as a responsible adult doing harm to no one.
I’m glad they finally admitted that it’s never been a law against marijuana, it’s a law against the people that use it, at first it was immigrants from the south, then in the 60s & 70s it was the people that hated Politicians.
okay its 2022. Everyone else has rights and groups, I think its about time to get with the times and legalize it at the federal level .. tax it like beer or cigarettes and let people live their lives already..
Our country would make billions so long congress passes it.
Reagan has got to be in the top 5 of worst presidents ever he didn’t have a clue and the so called war on drugs was and is a huge disaster.
Everyone needs salvation here are the words of salvation please forgive me jesus im a sinner come into my heart and save me from my sin I no that you are the savior and I no that you died for me on calvary and I no that God raise you from the dead and you are alive and I thankyou for your salvation in Jesus holy name amen and its important to always ask for forgiveness every night 🌙 ✨ 💖 ♥ 💕
Weed motivated me and keeps me sane 😌
Its dope
ND will be hard to go recreational marijuana because medical is more beneficial to the state and resting illegal recreational is more financial to ND that recreational would ever be. all votes in ND for recreational loss just by 3 yes to 9 no for to pass recreational marijuana and the state decision to allow it to be voted or not to be voted the following year in a year and half in advance.
How come it’s ok to drink or smoke cigarettes??? But not Marijuana?? I’ll tell you why cause our government makes money off of death!! How many people you know died off Marijuana let me know!! Don’t worry I’ll wait!!! Cause ain’t nobody you know ever O.D. off smoking Marijuana!!! Depending on the type you smoke(Indica or sativa) your either gonna be Happy & Hungry or your gonna be Happy Hungry & Sleepy!!
It is all about control and money. They want to control who can grow it, and who makes money on it. Do another study so the big companies make the money. The poor guy on the street don’t have a chance.
Not until we get this crack loving president out of office. Biden has put more people away than any other. The fact that pot is seen as worse than alcohol is a joke of all jokes.
Marijuana is not a Drug, it is a PLANT
WW3…. Who give a faq
How tf is the alcohol and tobacco industries taking over the marijuana industry when it’s ITS OWN INDUSTRY. Wtf kinda logic is that
they made money off it war on drug look in to it
JOHN MITCHELL…NOW THERE WAS SOMEONE YOU COULD TRUST….lol
yeap
And they can’t say they
don’t know how to tax it
Because when you buy that CBD which does nothing for me because it doesn’t have THC not here in the state of Texas
But you do have to pay taxes on it when you buy it
Yes it should be and if you think otherwise then go back to being an alcoholic and popping your pills under your little rock…..
legalize it everywere in the us !!!!!!!!!!!!! >.it is so great for people with medical problems !!!!!!!!!!

Part 3101, 5 C.F.R. § 735 & according to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure Rule 2. There is one form of Action – the Civil Action, this is confirmed in 28 U.S.C. § 1333 & 28 U.S.C. § 1331 Historical Notes, which can only be commenced by a covered employee 2 U.S.C. The Congress § 1408 & therefore can only be actionable against another covered employee. No one can give consent of another to be governed as "waivers of fundamental Rights must be knowing, intentional, & voluntary acts, done with sufficient awareness of the relevant circumstances & likely consequences.

Not true. People were using cannabis before Mx imigrants came over. They were using it recreationalyl & medically 1950s. There were places in cities like NY & Chicago to go socialize, chill & smoke.
Constitutionally its legal in any form
I’m a republican most people i know are also and i am completely for the legalization of marijuana and I’m pretty confident that my republican friends are also.
The legalization of marijuana should be regulated at federal level to protect children and teens. The news at the TV was about a teen smokes marijuana and passed out drooling. All the dispensaries around the country should be monitoring and check the content. How much they sell? The dispensary that sells the product to the kids, should be immediately close. A girl purchased a lollipop couldn’t close the mouth and dull until the effect pass away. Any adult providing kids with marijuana should go to jail. Human being should always have rules and regulations. Protect the people.
Special thanks to Donald Trump for exposing the lies this government has spewed to us since 1775. Marijuana has only been used my man for 6000 years as a medicine and the same goes for Psilocybin mushrooms. American gluttony and abuse bastardize many things such as these 2 items. What does alcohol cure ? Oh wait you can tax that easy and you can’t tax a weed that anyone can grow. All about he money and big pharma
And I say marijuana is a gateway drug that’s bulshit alcohol is you get somebody drunk and then son-of-a-b**** will smoke or take anything
Think I’ll step outside for a little recreational break right now.
The problem with legalisation of weed is that they can only give you a low dosage at a time so after a year or 2 they start going to Street cannabis that one of the reasons why the legal cannabis industry is slowly dying
Has anyone remembered the word. PROHABITION? does anyone know that there’s a food shortage? Beyond repair! Does anyone know that food can’t be grown outside anymore. But, it certainly can be grown inside. There’s a SUCKER BORN every minute. Fortunately for the children. We’ll manage to feed them. And, that will be from those stoners who are so high, they forgot about prohabition law’s. Which still exist. Thank God. Because, the feds will be showing up. And, no doubt it’ll be the 2 thirds one third law .2 thirds food . At a very reasonable price. Lol. This is hilarious. But, at least we can syful the food shortage. After all we can’t eat weed. Or, feed it to the kids.
Imagine being a person of color and having a record and been to prison for selling or smoking weed. And now Becky and Chad are able to do it. This country is so racist
Idk what is said about Marijuana but smoking it cured my stage 4 cancer chemotherapy was killing Marijuana saved my life so if anyone as something bad to say about it then u need to go do some serious research 💨💨💨💨
Well duah it’s inevitable! They just had to prohabish the hell outta it to make us fight for it like alcohol days. They know it’s a miracle power plant!
I dont see any state banning alcohol. The authorities trying to convince us in this day and age that Alcohol is a lesser evil compared to Marijuana. Seriously?
Don’t think Woodstock main, think weaponized, $30 trillion dollar debt marijuana. (nicotine)
United States of America 🇺🇸 Sponsored!
Cô Mây hướng dẫn bài tết đong đầy đi ạ
Just saw my pastor on the other side of town at a dispensary. The times have changed.
If it’s legalised I’m leaving Australia and moving to America 🇺🇸
The saddest part is they call it the gate way drug when in fact nicotine is your gateway drug that is legal to buy
Legal hemp equals world peace! Repaired economy, debt relief. Lots of positive effects! God made it for stressful times. We as a human race are definitely in stressful Times. God made hemp for a reason.
Maybe since Hunter Biden cornered the market on cocaine !! Lol 🤠
