I was a police officer for 8.5 years. I am more pro marijuana in TX than I am pro alcohol. Legalize it.
Hey thanks for your service as a peace officer.
Nice. You're no longer a cop (good move) and you support legalization. You get two gold stars from me.
You're the man!!!,Thank you for your service. I agree with you 100 percent.
Nice
I have heard from police that they don't care about Weed because it's legal.
You are correct to want legalization. Cannabis has been horribly demonized wrongly without justification in the past.
Prohibition against Cannabis is similar to the persecution against Jewish people during ww2.
I have PTSD & chronic pain. Cannabis & hemp products keep me from being dependent on benzos & pain medications. Unlike alcohol it's not physically addictive & not a toxin like alcohol is! We know alcohol causes kidney, liver, pancreas, cardiovascular, & brain damage yet it's widely available 🤷♀️
But that's the point of keeping it illegal! Big pharmacy companies need that extra money
Are you smoking cannabis or taking CBD oil?
@@331mexa mostly CBD
@@cindot2520 what brand are you taking?
@@331mexa I order from Binoid. They're quality & consistency are excellent! Also ISO certified.
Legalize it already!

Facts they need to hurry up and do it
Not having legal Marijuana is the only downside to living in texas. Our lawmakers don't seem to care what is good for people. They can't even keep the lights on in a snow storm.
I agree, I wake up every day saying life could be so beautiful if I were in Colorado 😹🐈🕊️🙏
@@yourstruly9472 I moved from Colorado to Texas one month before covid. 😂
@@jacktastick land of the, not so free, yah 🤔✌️
@@yourstruly9472 USA, United States of apathy
@@jacktastick I'd like to sue tx for treading on my freedom, rights, and equality for the last 11 years, then I'd have enough money to move to Colorado 😹🐈🕊️✌️
It really is ridiculous that the prohibition of marijuana continues in the state especially after the medical benefits have been proven time and time again and the social effects of it can't be that detrimental otherwise Colorado would be falling apart but it's not. But people's Pride have a hard time letting them believe that something they've been told their whole life is bad is actually not bad and believe that they've been hustled for so long
It's ridiculous...
We've always had the power either way...
It’s about ego and money nothing more
Only stupid people believe what they are told without questioning it.
People need to really ask themselves if it's bad just because the spooky invisible man told them it is from before 1930.
By the way, Henry anslinger is in hell.
Just moved from there, I won’t lie it is falling apart. Just a military retiree state with a bunch of minimum wage thugs.
Id move to alameda county if i didn't have a felony warrant there.
We started our farm and stores because we have already helped people get off pain killers. It saves people from going down a dark road which eventually leads to death. Go Texas! Let’s get it done! Let’s help people and save lives!
Hey do you guys provide thca
Sounds like an excellent idea. Quit making Americans suffer over nonviolent, so-called crimes for cannabis, which definitely has a medical benefit.🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
This is the reason I’ve kept a clean record.,
I’m ready for a more fulfilling, and economically stable lifestyle through obtaining a career in the industry.
🇨🇱 Is Ready.
@@boofert.washington2499 it's all about quality just like fine wine brah
@@zrofucks2give869 well people just want weed. You want money from selling weed like a plug who doesn't pay taxes.
This is about Texas, not Chile
@@boofert.washington2499 correct the Medical Cannabis program across America is fooked beyond repair. The government needs to stay out of our business, and start paying more attention to pedophiles.
@ZrOfucks2give many of them have folded due to the competition from Mexican cartels in the West Coast. They move in to a government land, and fook it all up with their goddamn chemicals and make millions. If we don’t already have enough aholes fooking up our air, land and water.
Can we at least start with allowing home growing for personal use. No one has ever died from smoking too much pot, it's not as dangerous as the govt says. Doesn't deserve to be in schedule 1 with heroin
You can still grow hemp at home
It's Legal in all 50 States
That’s what they need to do
Its not dangerous at all.
Texas needs lessons from California and Colorado
And both Washingtons, New York, New Jersey and the rest of the States that legalized recreational weed
Such as paying out billions of dollars to black people who's great great grand dad may or may not have been a slave? I think not!
California and Colorado also take 2nd amendment liberties away from citizens.
CBD and weed helps me. Should be legalized in Texas.
What doesnt impact the brain or lungs that they dont already sell. You see all the side effect of over the counter drugs and theyre horrifying
Bruh that mcdonalds burger more unhealthy than a blunt lets be real
Tax it reasonably like whiskey, instead of giving the entire market to criminals. Its only expensive and dangerous because its illegal, while its always been great and in high demand. Imagine if they made gold illegal
Fasho
Don't tax it all! Why are you calling for the government to take more?
I have a prescription in Texas for my PTSD from a war. I’m finally able to get adequate treatment for my condition.
Are u able to use it in Oklahoma?
Thank you for your service. 🇺🇸
No One should be punished for any amount of marijuana that's just what I know is right!!
JUST LEGALIZE IT!!✊
Never
@@baymaster20 why not it's healthier than drinking lean syrup, nitwit 🤘🔥💨
Recreational please
Dear Texans:
If you want legal MJ, you have to VOTE OUT Dan Patrick as Lt Gov.
IT IS THAT SIMPLE!
Shouldn’t the people have a say, vote on it? It would’ve been legal for recreational use a long time ago!
It all comes down to the education system…. And just how well the most of population were educated….. common sense… is acquired ..through education
@ZrOfucks2give yah, like if I told you alcahol was safer than weed, your common sense should tell you I'm lying 🙀😹🐈🕊️🙏
Come to Vegas we have the best dispensaries in the world especially NuWu in Northtown excellent poducts and good prices that includes no tax because its indegenous owned and operated on Native land
Bro are you out of your mind California has the best weed in the world hands down I went to Vegas a few months ago and walked into a few dispensaries and the weed literally looked like dried up dog turds
Legalize today get high tonight!!
Cigarettes are legal and sold everywhere
Hopping on riiight now 🔥
About time see there’s so much things you can use it for
Oh I’m so glad to hear that!!
But if cannabis became legal look at all the people who would lose money from the kickbacks they get from the cartels😮
State of Texas has such a surplus they can throw a couple billion towards the Mental Health crisis that we are currently experiencing like the rest of the nation. This is a chance for us to be a leader in the change for better society and a way for us to show through example of how to deal with the Mental Health crisis it's affecting so many. Ironically marijuana and the tax revenue comes from that could be applied directly to that or how about we put some more money in the school system so that we're not in the bottom half of the nation
I just dont understand why we can't grow our own cannabis. Texas is making this very hard just legalize it. I wish they just let us vote on this matter.
There are too many higher-ups making illegal money off of illegal weed
Frfr
"Could impact brain, lungs and unborn children" oh but tobacco and alcohol are cool, okay sweet.
I love how these people say nothing about birth defects from alcohol but they believe what they are told without questioning it by the boogeyman that, "weed is bad" when it fights cancer growth, a known disease that kills people.
henry anslinger is in hell right now.
I suffer from chronic pain and other stuff. I'm also in the Compassionate Use Program so far i have invited a few friends over to become medical users and 2 of them qualified!
I would like for Texas to be open up medical for more patients!
Just go to California and buy some and come back to tx
@@spidzy3423 I don’t need to… i get it shipped. Obviously you haven’t seen my videos
I don’t smoke weed but have in the past it’s no big thing lived in Colorado for years no problem TX will benefit from legalizing and taxing it for sure. Any economic set back or clasp that happens Colorado stood strong and now has the best medicine and mental in the USA along with many other things due to passing
Yet alcohol is constantly promoted to me everywhere I look as something I need to have a good time.
I’m sick and tired of having to go out of state for some good quality marijuana and marijuana products. It’s ridiculous how amazing this state is but they can’t get this one thing done.
Texas always late
Where’s the studies that say it should be illegal? Most studies show that cannabis is safe and states that have legalized underage use has gone down!
Not true. I voted yes in my state, but underage use goes UP.
James talarico is helping texans vote to pass Marijuana
I got arrested for 1 gram of marijuana I lost my job and my car
ur kidding
FDA: Marijuana bad!
FDA: Alcohol, cigarettes, Oxycodone good!
Go to your local smoke shop and u will find THC A Marijuana that is under the legal 3% of regular THC but the THC A that's as high as 30% converts into THC once it's being heated or burned so basically uvcan go buy clean Marijuana labeled under THC A andits great a tad bit expensive but good smoke at verity
Nah that stuff is trash imma just take a trip to New Mexico and go to the dispensary
The only bad thing is even though that hemp is legal you'll still fail a drug test.. like you are doing illegal drugs. What's the point then?
I’m a patient for TX honestly the price for everything is way to expensive for me, I’m able to buy products maybe 1-3 times a year. It’s a starts but We need change
Prices are more expensive in dispensaries
@ZrOfucks2give the mail is too risky for me tbh, I’ve heard do cops busting people doing that lol but hey, more power to you homie
Look into "Thc-a"
It's a legal loop hole.
@ZrOfucks2give Would u mind tellim me more on how to in bring it in through the mail? I also live in Texas but have family in california who could buy me weed but thw only problem is getting it into texas.
@@cia1985 Thats called "smuggling" and a Federal offense.
CANNABIS IS LEGAL.
CITIES CAN SUSPEND CANNABIS LAWS FOR SPECIAL EVENTS.
It’s insane how much tax dollars Texas is missing out on because of the stupid right wing state lawmakers.
RINO's
That's part of the problem with having a one political party state .
@@lifestudent2472 it's not
@@happity I have to disagree a Democrat can not get elected to dog catcher in Texas outside the city limits California has the same problem reversed . When all you have to do is win a primary to win an election you will usually cater only to your base .
Exactly
Can’t believe weed is still not legalize in tx it’s insane
Where can I volunteer for these so called "tests" also was Alcohol or Cigarettes tested?
Dude is using blurple lights. He must be new to this
The fact Texas still puts people in prison for weed is insanity. Drinking and driving laws bust be harsher. Free the weed ~
There's THC INFUSED Lube here in Texas but it's still not recreational, just medicinal
I have chronic back pain, im dying over here.
I’m just feining
Tax should be low and based on weight instead of dollar value. Cheaper weed makes more tax revenue. Cheaper weed blocks the black market. win win.
This whole situation is a joke and a money grab. Smh.
330 billion us dollar surplus WOULD BE EVEN BETTER
So you can grow Hemp in Texas?
Yes
If you want legal Marijuana Then Dan Patrick has to go! he will not allow it to come up for a vote 🗳
🔥🔥🔥
lol. assembly members always saying they'll use a sin tax to pay for kids education...it won't
God is perfect, man is not. Man made liquor, God made pot.
@KRaw God made corn . But I’m with you on the weed thing. I believe only reason they keep it from us with man made laws is revenue from arrests and big pharma won’t get their billions .
The lottery in TN paid for my tech school
@@KRAWofficial Have you ever read the bible? God created weed, but Jesus made alcohol from water
Dear Texas Goverment officals, yall might as well legalize it because we smoking it like it is anyways. -Your truly the citizens of Texas.
I heard texas maybe going recreational
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Freeeeeeee the weed yessssss
You can build a border wall!!!
How can you grow in Texas legally?
We’re still going to use it, so why not legalize and get the tax revenue? I mean it really boils down to the money 🤷🏽♂️
Not if but When.
Please god let Texas become recreational in Texas.
Texas will make billions of dollars and already missed out on a billions of dollars
Here is a theory of the hold up. Among claims like that ridiculous 2015 claim by Abbott that he don't want anyone to over dose on marijuana, the truth is that it is one, a gateway drug, but not the gateway you think. Other than gun violence and other top criminal offenses, possession of marijuana is if not THE one offense, but one of the top offenses that law enforces use to help fuel the criminal justice system. Marijuana is a high traffic gateway into the justice system. Another is the fact that it is hard to distinguish the difference between hemp and marijuana. Even though hemp is legal to have in all 50 states, in Texas, you can possess hemp but it is illegal to grow. period. Growing a hemp farm and distributing it throughout the state would cause confusion to law enforcement, let alone just possessing a few grams. They can come up with their fantasies all they want to keep marijuana illegal, but the truth is that they don't want it legal because they are making too much money on bails and court fees with people who were hauled in on possession charges. If they are so worried about arrests being down, they need not too. People are still going to sell weed illegally. I mean, selling weed from a house would like taking money from the government vs collecting taxes off of sales from dispensaries or authorized stores to sale. Texas need to get off that bullshit. Marijuana has always been the number one choice of drug users. Opioids is a choice, but that is thanks to the government for allowing opioids to be sold in the first place because between the early 1900s to 1995, opioids were increasingly abused, acknowledged and gotten worse beginning with the role out of oxycodone commonly branded as Oxycontin in 1995. The government is even allowing a percentage of crack cocaine, a drug that can get you up to life in prison, to be used as "medical cocaine" which a lot of veterans are prescribed to treat PTSD. So what are we going to do? Marijuana has nothing on what has been allowed to be legally distributed and hurting people for over a hundred years.
Texas still living In 16 hundreds.
We. Can carry guns tho
Cmon let's do it
DO IT DO IT DO IT
I've been suffering for 5 years cuz this stupid pom case on my record all I can do is work fast food without anyhookups
We need wall street investors to come to the capital and present numbers. Put it on the board and convince us that there's a profit. We need lawyers and governors on the legal side to agree on decriminalizing first. Let them know what direction we're heading and start making changes now. Jail is full of weed charges. The courts make a lot of money off the backs of smokers. It's time they owe us a spot in the market. Oakland made enough money hire 7 more deputies and not one pot bust, just violent offenders paying criminal taxes.
22 STATES LEGAL
For each marijuana plant ten angels lose their wings 🙏
Dey legalize crack b4 dey legalize weed🤦🏽♂️
A natural plant. Let nature do its own thing. Stop compounding profits from cheap labor for natural resources.
Let medical dispensaries sell FLOWER
💚
Cannabis cures many physical and mental impairments does federally legal the band plant with religious use
millions of Texans use this and it’s illegal there would be a huge jump in buyers and money
Is Cannabis also called the smelly beef taco in Texas? I'm joking by the way, I know its the same as anywhere else.
We are animals we are supposed to eat meat, you wouldn’t harass a cat for eating meat 🤣
Legalize weed
More research really?! Y’all been pulling this shit for last 100 years.
Nanny state
More studies my butt! The studies have been done common sense don’t smoke while pregnant
dont legalize. just go visit our neighbors up in okc. dispensaries on every corner, and degenerates everywhere.
Ok Grampa time for you to go back to your booze and pills it's almost your nap time!
@@jonmacdonald5345 😂😂😂😂😂
We already have degenerates on every corner !
@@jonmacdonald5345 Be nice this Grandpa just retired and is fully hoping for legalization. Ok but I do love a good nap !
Ananababab no
I hope to God it doesn't, people here cant even handle their drink.
People like you are the problem!
Youre right. People drink too much and lose control. They should smoke instead and chill out
Countries that prove they can handle the responsibility of recreational drugs can do it, by all means I don't care. People here however simply can't, and this comes from numerous observations.
People being stoned means they won't want to leave the comfort of their home
Yes but it has medicinal purposes and if we’re going by that logic cigarettes and alcohol should also be illegal but we both know that’ll never happen. So let’s legalize something that can actually help people
TEXAS where you can legal marry you cousin & legally shoot an intruder into mincemeat -
but grow & smoke a flower ! ? ~ not permitted
Nope :+)
Have it ban all the way to whole usa if not they are being jailed and lawyers cant stop them and the lawyers be jailed for health threat a child or children dont matter what the health is for others same with parents .😊
