they act like marijuana is so bad, but look at how much damage alcohol has caused in the last oh i don't know....200+ years and yet that poison is still legal.
Alcohol is different than marjiania,the two words are spelled different,there not the same- there different!!Marjiania does different damage to the brain than alcohol and marjiania is being bred to be far more potent and dangerous than just a few years ago!The brain is destroyed by this drug and is a direct result of our kids becoming mixed up !
No disrespect but I'd much rather pay a measly $500 fine, than idk go to jail and have a felony on my record, decriminalization is a small step, but a step nonetheless
By definition this is untrue. If the only penalty for something is a ticket that means you are not being criminalized for it. Nobody is a criminal for speeding...you just get a ticket.
The fact that a "law group" is calling cannabis in "marijuana" lets you know exactly whos side these people are on. Nothing has been signed into law which means nothing has happened. If you can be punished for it its not legalized nor decriminalized.
As long as Dan Patrick is Lt. Governor, weed will never be legal. He is a staunch marijuana prohibitionist. He controls what bills go to the senate. Anything related to legalization he will not allow a vote on. 78 percent of Texans favor legalization. People like Dan Patrick need to put their personal biases aside since its ‘we the people” and stop dictating our lives. No one should be in jail because their drug of choice is not advertised at every major sporting event.
I’m a veteran / and all I wanna say this is the only way I can sleep or eat when I have not eating in days ….. I’m sorry 😢 I’m a veteran mess up that’s needs real medicine and not just fake delta 8
Because Cheech it opens the door for other drugs to become legal that's why that's all it takes is one. When you legitimize one you might as well legalize them all and im not down for that. U want to make cannabis legal for patients who need it I understand that. I took my lil sister to 4 yrs of chemo but I also know that marijuana can a gateway drug.
If anyone sees this I’d say yes I’m a young hard working man and a few years back I hurt my back and as a man it’s very hard to have insurance not all men do because bills and etc but I smoke because I can’t afford check ups and things like that all the time we need this please a lot of hard working people who beat there body to help build this country
I simply do not understand why marijuana use is stapled to democratic movement/side?? Im not left or right but I hate being pinned for one or the other, and am gettin really sick of this. so in other words if we want it legalized we have to pick the democratic liberal side? Yeah, not happening, not for me. Weed should no more to be stapled to the dems than alcohol should be the conservatives I mean get real.
@@pcabcab oh no I won’t fall apart . It just be nice to be able to smoke after work instead of drinking. Especially it would help me lose this stubborn weight.
Between the outrageous property taxes and big alcohol lobbyists owning every politician in this state. I’m pretty much ready to move to a true free state
makes no sense. its legal but illegal? just make it all federally legal up until a certain point idk. there isn't a cigarette limit, so why should there be one for weed? and make abortions legal too. roe v wade was fine before it got changed. just as people cross the border to get an abortion, people cross borders to get drugs from legal states. same for guns. the taxes for weed are so high that it puts tons of small businesses out of business because no one is buying their highly taxes products. its so infuriating that a country made by capitalism has not made weed a federally legal business like it did with cigarettes and alcohol. only cops get paid for getting weed (by civil forfeiture from citizens), and they smoke it without ever getting caught.
What people dont realize is if it does pass people will use more but will companies now have a way to deny disability claims, workmens comp, as well as insurance premiums go up.
I doubt it. It'll be a whole lot worse than California. Knowing how stupid politicians are in Texas, they'll make it a law that you get a free gun with every ounce you buy.
Just a public service announcement for those not in the know, if you want to smoke weed and don't want to break the law, you can go to almost any vape/smoke shop in tx and buy thca flower, completely legally. While these idiots argue about legalizing d9, thca is the exact same thing and is completely legal here. Have fun
Everywhere where weed is legal have seen a decrease in crime. Low level crime 100 years ago is common practice today. It's time to update to the year 2023.
Its taken a long time to get here, but I believe MJ should be legal. However, it needs to regulated and taxed like tobacco. In addition, the penalty for illegally growing and selling it should be severe because they're no reason to grow it illegally when you can buy it everywhere.
@@ItsMeeJon Oh please, let's not be silly. We're talking about MJ. Legalization can only work if the criminality is removed and it's regulated and taxed. The ATF already oversees cigar stores. Once, the Federal government gets its hands on the billions in tax revenue it will become every politician's favorite.
@@ItsMeeJon Riiiight😂 since we sell you fruits n veggies you cant grown them because the gov. allows you to buy it now ???? wtf .... very unlogical thinking . lol Oh wait you cant grow that because we Own it now. and even tho it Naturally came from the Earth. Why do people put so much trust in the government ? Remember this power legalized meth and alcohol . 😮 Lets forget all the mistakes the system has done with our familiy , kids, friends, mothers, and fathers . Lets forget!!!!! its Easy ...... smh
@Cameron the MAP one of goals of legalization is to take the criminality out of MJ. So, if it' was available to purchase every where , there's no need for criminals to grow or sell it
There should be no right to repair , not right to garden . You have taken the no right for " self-help" in the law to the extreme . Most People just want to be left alone . There are two other groups those that are do gooders and those that want to hassle others .

Marijuana doesnt improve brain function. You do also realize what it does to the lungs right? Talk about poison
we tried to make alcohol illegal too it just didnt work.
IF YOU CAN STILL BE TICKETED ITS NOT DECRIMINALIZED.
ITS 420 RIGHT NOW.YAY

Don't like it .
legalize it!

It’s time for voting any politician that’s against cannabis being legalized out of office they do not have the peoples best intentions in mind
You people are scared of a plant..😅
Officers don't swear an oath to the state the work in. They swear an oath to the constitution.
You cant pick and choose what laws you're going to enforce. Either we are a nation of laws or not. The State needs to just legalize it.
Oh is that passed in pa yet
the constitution and the bill of rights are written on hemp
Legalize marijuana already.. why is this even an issue bruh . It's 2023
Freedom is worth trying
I live in O High O legal and growing at home
ARE THESE PEOPLE STUPID ?? IF YOU CAN STILL BE FINED FOR MINOR POSSESSION, ITS NOT DECRIMINALIZED.

They can always arrest you for driving while high.
Good it is coming brothers and sisters
Dam it are u seriously serious like come on why can’t they just agree and make it legal already

Fredericksburg could grow fire.
Tax it and drop property taxes ! Tax legal weed !
They tax guns in Texas when you purchase it,tax marijuana too done deal
Just make it federally legal please 🙏. I’m impatiently waiting 😩. It’s like a tease .
I'm just not waiting and it's a hill I will die on or they will
Oh plz don't fall apart how will you handle it if it passes...I shutter to think
@@pcabcab oh no I won’t fall apart . It just be nice to be able to smoke after work instead of drinking. Especially it would help me lose this stubborn weight.
@@rogersepeda bro , research thc a. It's good enough, until they quit the crap(ps its the same thang, and you CAN get it on the goog)

It's 2023 omg it's grass and I'm tired of going to jail and losing my vehicles over tows it's HYPOCRITICAL ATP and Colorado and California nvm 🤦🏾♂️
You decriminalized it……now legalize it!
You have to vote on the local people. Get all your friends and family out there.
Finally
Bad move
Just make it legal all the way
ALL of this is so damn stupid. It's not, and never will be, a hazard to the general public .... and everyone knows it. Legalize it already!
God bless Texas.

#LEGALIZEWEEDINTEXAS
Hahaha all u people wanting it to be legal. Do u really though??? State tax on weed? I have enough taxes as it is. No thank you
Please! Let this pass.
Funny liars hurt people not pot Criminalize lying 😂
I hope they don't legalize here in Florida!! I absolutely hate smelling the shit and everyone I've met or seen that smokes it is lazy as hell
FOH snowflake
The power of Joe Rogan.
Hahah don’t turn into California cartel took over that state
What people dont realize is if it does pass people will use more but will companies now have a way to deny disability claims, workmens comp, as well as insurance premiums go up.
You know what..... imma say 🖕 yall if you wanna lock me up for weed. That's it. Imma a handicapped man and have epilepsy and can't walk anyway
Decriminalize magic mushrooms for depression please !
And so it begins…. Texas will soon be California.
Rich and prosperous? Not a burden on the rest of the union?
Look up which states (Bible Belt) is collecting all the welfare generated in Cali ;P
I wouldn’t go that far
I doubt it. It'll be a whole lot worse than California. Knowing how stupid politicians are in Texas, they'll make it a law that you get a free gun with every ounce you buy.
LOl because of weed decriminalization? You right wing snowflakes are way worse than liberals. Always crying about something.
I was waiting for them to make it Legal I was going to celebrate but oh well
Really thats what u focus on
Just a public service announcement for those not in the know, if you want to smoke weed and don't want to break the law, you can go to almost any vape/smoke shop in tx and buy thca flower, completely legally. While these idiots argue about legalizing d9, thca is the exact same thing and is completely legal here. Have fun
Lol definitely not a substitute
Ehhh...not the same at all.
Legalized 👍
Low level crimes always leads to high level crime.
Cope
Everywhere where weed is legal have seen a decrease in crime. Low level crime 100 years ago is common practice today. It's time to update to the year 2023.
Well if they completely legalize it, then it won't be a crime at all. By your definition, it will not lead to high level crime anymore.
Glad to see Texas has it's priorities...🤦♂️
Its taken a long time to get here, but I believe MJ should be legal. However, it needs to regulated and taxed like tobacco. In addition, the penalty for illegally growing and selling it should be severe because they're no reason to grow it illegally when you can buy it everywhere.
So by that logic no one should be allowed to have gardens to grow vegetables either?
