Marijuana saved me from popping pills and drinking myself to death Update: thank you weed for helping me, I’m sober now no weed no pills just raw dogging life now :)
It's hard to discourage use of alcohol and tobacco when they are in every store on every corner. At least allow cannabis to sit beside them on the shelves for a healthier option
Kickin' chicken you couldn't have said it better. I was an alcoholic and an opiate addict for years and it's all because those two were so readily available and a variety of quality marijuana wasn't. I m from Florida so the bud was there but the pills get pushed so hard that I couldn't avoid them. If I could ever just make it home with marijuana once I got high I would stay home and be happy but if I didn't smoke I was out drinking and soon as I had a good buzz I was looking for pills. My point is if getting marijuana was as simple as stopping at a store and picking your favorite strain I would have never got on the alcohol or pills. Buying marijuana off the street eventually got me to stop those things but it needs to be easier to get ahold of so I don't have to get it illegally and risk getting in trouble. Also that way there's a big variety and there's edibles and cartridges. It angers me that they won't just legalize it, it's the least they can do because I can't get those ten wasted years of my life back now I'm so far behind. If they hadn't let all those pills out into the streets and just legalize marijuana it never would have happened.
The fact its still illegal shows how corrupt the government is. These people voting for it to be class1 of all things should be locked up forever. Like actually forever until they die. Its such a scam its unreal.
You may but people that share the road with you would likely prefer if you smoke tobacco over something that producing hallucinations in higher doses and on average impacts your car driving competence more.
@@IonorReasSpamGenerator drunk drivers drive through houses. high drivers wait for stop signs to turn green. Also hallucinations? I can tell you don’t smoke 😭
I never heard anybody overdosing on Marijuana and yet its illegal, I've heard plenty of people getting alcohol poisoning because they drank too much yet that's legal.
Alcohol is much more addictive and people could die without getting drunk so if they banned alcohol (they did before) it would just make the problems worse. Also more importantly think about all the tax money on beer alone
@@akscraggy2434 I think all drugs should be decriminalized and psychedelics should be legalized under strict standards. Also I’m off 3 edibles rn that’s why I’m not making sense
This is completely false, to preserve moral values. The government must restrict using these kind of drugs that corrupts people 's mind and have bad influence on future generations. I think all states should permanently ban drugs like this, this is like opium, it is not like candy, it should be prosecuted and put tougher sentences. The problem of these ridiculous freedom is it causes poison to moral values in society, and should be enforced and labeled illegal activities, period
@@roman3493 Look people own themselves so they can put whatever they want into their bodies regardless of people's approval. So yes, all drugs should be legal with that reason alone.
I thought we live in a free country why can't we smoke alitte weed and get by with it but pop to many pain pills and doctors take them away or Government changes laws on many things in this country No longer a free country
Marijuana should be illegal and we can find other solutions to the problems Marijuana was used for and use different methods without being a drug that you can get high on
@@dreel37 depends on your experience. Far fewer people develop issues with cannabis than alcohol, however, far fewer is not zero. I have a love hate relationship with it. I use cannabis to help me sleep, and for that it is better than any medication that I have been prescribed before. That said, I try and use the minimum possible to get the effect I need because I don't like the out of control feeling that I get from being high (in fact, I try to avoid weeds that get me high). I avoid alcohol for the later reason as well. Weed is not far worse than alcohol. That is fact. However, it is not without risk or issues, and can be abused, just as any substance can be.
@@dreel37 The scientific consensus you see in studies etc. suggests Cannabis to be quite a bit safer than alcohol. Some people actually go as far as to expect a financial relief of medical insurance companies in Canada due to people switching from alcohol to cannabis following the legalization. Whether or not that turns out to be true remains to be seen. But obviously it being considered safer than alcohol doesn't make it safe and for some people cannabis can still be more problematic than alcohol. It simply depends on the individual.
This is by far the most frustrating thing that hopefully will change sometime in my life , it’s crazy a high functioning alcoholic can get a job just fine but if some smoked a joint 2 weeks prior they can’t get the job to provide for there family.
Even if it was legal you might still not get that job. Depending on the company they wouldn't a hire a alcoholic even if it was legal. You just got to find some of the newer more progressive companies. I worked for one and the application required a drug test but when it came to do the drug test they said they reserved the right to ask for it but don't actually take one.
I smoked weed for the first time with my brother (I’m 25, he’s 20) and his buddies. I’ve never laughed so hard. And the best part was I slept amazing and had awesome dreams. Then woke up super thirsty but no hangover so that was amazing!
First time i tried it i was 10-11 yo. I caught my brother smoking with his buddy (they were 16-17 at the time) and his buddy was telling my brother: ''Let him try, let him try!'' My brother was hesitant and didn't let me try, but that only made me wanna try it even more so i started persuading him. I told him i will snitch to our parents if he doesn't let me try lol.. He had no other option haha.. It was a good deal for him though, i couldn't snitch if i tried it as well.
Legalize medicinal and recreational cannabis 21+ ONLY. Tax and regulate it like alcohol/tobacco. Please! It’s 2021, and cannabis is still illegal and in the same class as Heroin/Fentanyl/Methamphetamine etc.
Democrats have Supermajority and if they can’t legalize marijuana while being the entire system, there’s no reason to vote for them at all in the future, because they’ve proven they can’t accomplish anything. Joe signed 17 executive orders on day 1. Marijuana could be legal tomorrow if Joe Biden would get off of his fat ass and just do it already
@@EazyIbra Yeah, that’s called a partisan issue. The exact same reason why Democrats oppose immigration reform despite that being an actual problem. They oppose it solely because Republicans are for it, so Republicans respond by being opposed to things like weed. They’re objectively wrong for it, but that’s why politicians are worthless. Democrats have been pro weed for decades and had Supermajority with Obama whom was supposedly proweed, yet did not legalize it for absolutely no reason. Democrats have yet another Supermajority and there is once again no reason to not legalize weed. If they cannot accomplish it a second time around, do they really deserve a third? Actually, you’d be very surprised at how liberal a lot of Republican states are on weed. Louisiana is actually pretty close to legalization. I don’t know, if the Democrats can’t accomplish it, Republicans might just take over legalization and get it done faster. That is, unless Democrats stop being lazy

You try to take your kid into a medical dispensary, you'll get CPS called on you. Regulate it like alcohol, my ass. MED is a bunch of morons- it took them 6 years to start testing for heavy metals.
Yeah, the guy who supported only legalizing for medical use didn't have any sound logical arguments. Really, the government shouldn't be trying to encourage or discourage use. They should just allow adults to make their own decisions and stop throwing people in jail for activities that don't victimize anyone.
Neither substance should be promoted and recreational use should be discouraged. Sick of people thinking that marijuana should be used for anything but medical usage and that substance use of any kind doesn't create a dependence that cuts into the bank accounts of users.

See the thing is, it being legal doesn't increase it's consumption. Just public consumption. The same number of people will be smoking it illegally as they would if it was legal. Legalizing it will not change anything.

Seeing the changes in points of view on marijuana in just the last 5 decades is astounding. Anyone who has smoked it in this lifetime knows that the stigma against it is unjust and unwarranted. It makes me so happy to see that we can now (in most places) be able to smoke a pipe at the end of the day in peace and use it in a medical or recreational setting to help with ailments. or set & chill Just goes to show how your government can spin a narrative for their own agendas.

It goes to show that with "recreational" adult use legalization, access to the medical benefits of the plant are significantly expanded.

As some one who has lived in CO for the last 3 years, it's so strange when I travel to somewhere that it's still illegal. It's comical at this point that people still think it should be illegal.
I am a rock-ribbed Republican. Yet, I FULLY support the LEGALIZATION of marijuana. The question to be asked is "Do we own our own bodies?" If the answer is "Yes," pot must be legalized.
The first time I tried it. My first thought was, "I've been lied to." I only had alcohol to compare it to. Cannabis was not even close to being as debilitating and inebriating as alcohol and I felt better in general. Also, America had a shortage of manpower due to WW1. So America let Mexicans in to work. When our veterans returned our government had to figure out how to send the Mexicans back. So they criminalized cannabis because it was commonly used among the Mexicans (or at least it was strongly implied to the American people as such.)
It was a man in the 1930s that owned paper mills and forests to chop trees to make paper out of. He found that Hemp was way cheaper and a better way to make paper so he started lobbying since he was one of the richest people in the world at that time. He started lobbying and gave money to Politicians to make Hemp illegal and he told them to say it was the crazy Mexican people that do it. See Mexicans used to smoke it before war because it helped them not be as scared or have anxiety or feel the effects of injuries from war and they would chant when they were going into battle. The Government decided to say to the American people if you smoke Marijuana which is a racial Mexican word for Cannabis you will become delusional and start yelling things like the Mexican people do. Then latter after the 60s and all the hippies started promoting Cannabis, in the 70s the Government started the war on drugs. What they did was gave poor Black and Hispanic neighborhoods Cannabis to use and sell in their communities. Then the government went on to say if you smoke Marijuana you will be a poor lazy person like the Blacks, and Hispanic people that don't do anything and are in gangs and just do violent acts. They also got other drugs introduced into those communities and told people if you smoke Marijuana you will eventually do harder and worse drugs because Marijuana is a gateway to harder substances. Now we all know that is all crap, and the Government is starting to agree with that it all was lies feed to the American people. The old saying, can't teach a dog new tricks works here for the old 70, and 80 year old politicians that will never want Marijuana or the proper right name Cannabis to be legalized because they still believe it is bad and also have their pockets filled by not only the Pharmaceutical companies but even Big Tobacco because less will smoke addictive killing Cigarettes (The Weed of Death). It shouldn't be a war on drugs it should be a war on Racism. I don't think we will ever be a great nation again until our leaders and Media sources stop using Racism to get what they want. It is not as bad as it used to be but we all can do a lot better at just loving one another if they are a good person. Cannabis helps people to love, and what does the Lord Jesus want us to do more of. Love thy neighbor as thyself. Never got into a fight smoking Cannabis. I have when drinking or having a withdrawal from Cigarettes.
Part of the problem, is the government tells you it is so bad, dangerous, addictive and so on, then you try it and feel relief and realize they were unquestionably lying to you. This makes you question what else they are lying about. I suppose in a way that is beneficial, but I would rather the government just be honest, instead of making people realize they are untrustworthy liars. Keeping cannabis illegal, is a way to prove that we can't trust the government to be honest.
That's not true. For one thing other people are on medications that interact with marijuana. So far I've never seen a dope smoker concerned about how the side smoke is harmful to others and interacts with their meds. You say just leave the atmosphere. I have. I've missed buses etc because I needed fresh drug free air. Aside from the issue, everyone also deserves fresh air. In life I've learned that people who are dead set on doing whatever they want will always make excuses to do it. They have to lie to themselves to quench their consciences.
@@dallasw2465 I get your point, but if drunk people can cause mayhem in society and drive while drunk, so can we smoke and bother your nose a little bit.

It's probably big alcohol lobbying which is preventing decriminalization of Marijuana. Data shows that in states where recreational use was made legal, alcohol consumption dropped significantly.

Actually, pot is a ready made "mom and pop" business. People that cannot raise a healthy lawn can grow pot- they just need access to seeds.

So if you have a plant that grows easily and whose product doesn't need to be processed, along with regulations that allow for DIY grows and small-time growers, Big Marijuana becomes impossible.
@@lozoft9 I think you understood my thesis perfectly. Only the draconian enforcement has kept this from happening in a larger sense already.

Do you think I should take a break for a while from the market and focus on other things or return whenever I have free time or is it a continuous process? Thanks.
I'm terminally ill and Marijuana would greatly help ease my pain, help me sleep, calm my anxiety, fight my disease, and help me take less pain medicine. It also would greatly help my neurological problems. It's so unfair that I cannot have this as an option solely based on geography. I happen to be living an an illegal state but other sick people can get it. It's unfair. Im not allowed to illegally use it because I get drug tested for my pain management contract. That's so idiotic! They can give me heavy opiates and benzos but I cannot smoke Marijuana- does that make ANY SENSE AT ALL? No! Isn't our government supposed to represent US? We want it legalized let us vote on it, and do what we want. This is OUR country. Not communism.
@@SamiAlSharabi If you're asking either of us, I personally use use throughout the day. It's 5:40am, I just put my bagel in the toaster then took a hash oil dab to calm some back pain and a headache. For myself I find THC works a lot better for mitigating chronic pain than CBD, so yes I am high regularly.
@@SamiAlSharabi I choose "strains" or cultivars that produce uplifting effects. I have a moderately high tolerance and so I have an easier time of regulating between medical and inebriating dosages. I like to stay educated and so I enjoy to learning even when I'm high. At a certain point you just get used to working and functioning with THC.

It's hard to discourage use of alcohol and tobacco when they are in every store on every corner. At least allow cannabis to sit beside them on the shelves for a healthier option
or how about in a free country the people in suits stop telling us what we can and cant do
What are u talking about its extremely cheap
Kickin' chicken you couldn't have said it better. I was an alcoholic and an opiate addict for years and it's all because those two were so readily available and a variety of quality marijuana wasn't. I m from Florida so the bud was there but the pills get pushed so hard that I couldn't avoid them. If I could ever just make it home with marijuana once I got high I would stay home and be happy but if I didn't smoke I was out drinking and soon as I had a good buzz I was looking for pills. My point is if getting marijuana was as simple as stopping at a store and picking your favorite strain I would have never got on the alcohol or pills. Buying marijuana off the street eventually got me to stop those things but it needs to be easier to get ahold of so I don't have to get it illegally and risk getting in trouble. Also that way there's a big variety and there's edibles and cartridges. It angers me that they won't just legalize it, it's the least they can do because I can't get those ten wasted years of my life back now I'm so far behind. If they hadn't let all those pills out into the streets and just legalize marijuana it never would have happened.

I use cannabis to help me sleep, and for that it is better than any medication that I have been prescribed before. That said, I try and use the minimum possible to get the effect I need because I don't like the out of control feeling that I get from being high (in fact, I try to avoid weeds that get me high). I avoid alcohol for the later reason as well.
Weed is not far worse than alcohol. That is fact. However, it is not without risk or issues, and can be abused, just as any substance can be.

@@dreel37 The scientific consensus you see in studies etc. suggests Cannabis to be quite a bit safer than alcohol. Some people actually go as far as to expect a financial relief of medical insurance companies in Canada due to people switching from alcohol to cannabis following the legalization. Whether or not that turns out to be true remains to be seen.
But obviously it being considered safer than alcohol doesn't make it safe and for some people cannabis can still be more problematic than alcohol. It simply depends on the individual.
I just want to be able to smoke it without worrying about being rejected from a job because I smoked it a week prior.
This is by far the most frustrating thing that hopefully will change sometime in my life , it’s crazy a high functioning alcoholic can get a job just fine but if some smoked a joint 2 weeks prior they can’t get the job to provide for there family.
Even if it was legal you might still not get that job. Depending on the company they wouldn't a hire a alcoholic even if it was legal.

I smoked weed for the first time with my brother (I’m 25, he’s 20) and his buddies. I’ve never laughed so hard. And the best part was I slept amazing and had awesome dreams. Then woke up super thirsty but no hangover so that was amazing!
First time i tried it i was 10-11 yo. I caught my brother smoking with his buddy (they were 16-17 at the time) and his buddy was telling my brother: ''Let him try, let him try!''
My brother was hesitant and didn't let me try, but that only made me wanna try it even more so i started persuading him. I told him i will snitch to our parents if he doesn't let me try lol.. He had no other option haha.. It was a good deal for him though, i couldn't snitch if i tried it as well.
I tried it when I was 17 and it helped me with anxiety and stress I now get higher then a kite on the weekends lol

Democrats have been pro weed for decades and had Supermajority with Obama whom was supposedly proweed, yet did not legalize it for absolutely no reason. Democrats have yet another Supermajority and there is once again no reason to not legalize weed. If they cannot accomplish it a second time around, do they really deserve a third?
Actually, you’d be very surprised at how liberal a lot of Republican states are on weed. Louisiana is actually pretty close to legalization.

Marijuana has NO business on Schedule 1, and it never did; it seems to me that this is the easiest answer to marijuana reform at the federal level... move it elsewhere on the Schedule (or off of it altogether).
It needs to be removed from the schedule system altogether and be treated the same way as Alcohol/Tobacco(This does not apply to medical use)
Seeing the changes in points of view on marijuana in just the last 5 decades is astounding. Anyone who has smoked it in this lifetime knows that the stigma against it is unjust and unwarranted. It makes me so happy to see that we can now (in most places) be able to smoke a pipe at the end of the day in peace and use it in a medical or recreational setting to help with ailments. or set & chill Just goes to show how your government can spin a narrative for their own agendas.

Also, America had a shortage of manpower due to WW1. So America let Mexicans in to work. When our veterans returned our government had to figure out how to send the Mexicans back. So they criminalized cannabis because it was commonly used among the Mexicans (or at least it was strongly implied to the American people as such.)
Same here!
@John Doe You also don't get hung over on weed.
It was a man in the 1930s that owned paper mills and forests to chop trees to make paper out of. He found that Hemp was way cheaper and a better way to make paper so he started lobbying since he was one of the richest people in the world at that time. He started lobbying and gave money to Politicians to make Hemp illegal and he told them to say it was the crazy Mexican people that do it. See Mexicans used to smoke it before war because it helped them not be as scared or have anxiety or feel the effects of injuries from war and they would chant when they were going into battle. The Government decided to say to the American people if you smoke Marijuana which is a racial Mexican word for Cannabis you will become delusional and start yelling things like the Mexican people do. Then latter after the 60s and all the hippies started promoting Cannabis, in the 70s the Government started the war on drugs. What they did was gave poor Black and Hispanic neighborhoods Cannabis to use and sell in their communities. Then the government went on to say if you smoke Marijuana you will be a poor lazy person like the Blacks, and Hispanic people that don't do anything and are in gangs and just do violent acts. They also got other drugs introduced into those communities and told people if you smoke Marijuana you will eventually do harder and worse drugs because Marijuana is a gateway to harder substances. Now we all know that is all crap, and the Government is starting to agree with that it all was lies feed to the American people. The old saying, can't teach a dog new tricks works here for the old 70, and 80 year old politicians that will never want Marijuana or the proper right name Cannabis to be legalized because they still believe it is bad and also have their pockets filled by not only the Pharmaceutical companies but even Big Tobacco because less will smoke addictive killing Cigarettes (The Weed of Death). It shouldn't be a war on drugs it should be a war on Racism. I don't think we will ever be a great nation again until our leaders and Media sources stop using Racism to get what they want. It is not as bad as it used to be but we all can do a lot better at just loving one another if they are a good person. Cannabis helps people to love, and what does the Lord Jesus want us to do more of. Love thy neighbor as thyself. Never got into a fight smoking Cannabis. I have when drinking or having a withdrawal from Cigarettes.
Part of the problem, is the government tells you it is so bad, dangerous, addictive and so on, then you try it and feel relief and realize they were unquestionably lying to you.
This makes you question what else they are lying about.
I suppose in a way that is beneficial, but I would rather the government just be honest, instead of making people realize they are untrustworthy liars.
Keeping cannabis illegal, is a way to prove that we can't trust the government to be honest.

“But what about big tobacco and alcohol??” That’s what regulation is for. Big tobacco can’t take over if they aren’t allowed in in the first place
Actually, pot is a ready made "mom and pop" business. People that cannot raise a healthy lawn can grow pot- they just need access to seeds. More than a few state police departments are unhappy at how much manpower they use to "clean up" scattered grows, often just seeds criminal pot users scatter about. Alcohol had much the same problem during Prohibition, with many people, literally, distilling in a bathtub at home.
@@fredericrike5974 This is the part that doesn't make sense to me. Big tobacco is a thing b/c on one hand tobacco is a large, resource- and labor-intensive plant that you can't easily make something usable out of. On the other hand, tobacco regulations created Big Tobacco in a way by raising barriers to entry for new companies. So if you have a plant that grows easily and whose product doesn't need to be processed, along with regulations that allow for DIY grows and small-time growers, Big Marijuana becomes impossible.
@@lozoft9 I think you understood my thesis perfectly. Only the draconian enforcement has kept this from happening in a larger sense already. The penalties for growing Marijuana are even higher than possession in many states, so "wild grows" from randomly distributed seeds is most of what we have sen except the clandestine grows for commercial sale occurring in our National Parks and such. The State of Kentucky even has a group of state police trained to repel from helicopters so as to drop on grows in mountainous areas of the state- all trained up and "certified" to do these Special Forces" sort of "insertions.
