Thinking About Growing Commercial Marijuana...

[zghorner]

Right, I agree. But that has nothing to do with what I said. I dunno about illegal vs legal numbers. Point remains that IF weed was a gateway drug, the epidemic we see now would be considerably worse, and the pot demand lower.

oh that sweet sweet logic: music to some, nails on the chalkboard to others.

No they won't LMAO.
There is too much money to be had. The left and right want it as much as anyone who uses it.

So you're saying that big brother will allow it as long as he gets his share?

In both senses of "his share." It is not just about taxes. The swamp dwellers want to break out of the closet about their ganga usage. Lawyers and bankers always have the best dope. "Lawyer Bud" is actually a term in the dictionary for the highest grade of weed. They want to proudly come out and smoke pot in the streets with the masses blowing billowing clouds of herb in celebration of legalization, man.

The myth that just won't die. Pay special attention to the 3rd paragraph.

https://www.drugabuse.gov/publications/research-reports/marijuana/marijuana-gateway-drug

That paragraph does nothing to disprove or even refute his statement (the specific statement you quoted). Using that paragraph to try to disprove the use of marijuana as a gateway drug makes me question if you really understand what it is saying at all. lol

And opiate addiction almost always starts with your Dr.
That's changing as we speak though and I've seen it. I've spent a fare amount of time in the hospital last year and getting a good pain pill following surgery was impossible. No opiates at all. 1 Tylenol every four hours was all I got with my last ordeal.

First sentence of this is so true. I had surgery late last year and i got all the Oxy i wanted whenever i wanted it. Also got some to take home with after the surgery. I used it minimally at the hospital and destroyed the new bottle that i took home with me. I guess we had different Dr.'s. Lol. Its scary how addicting this stuff is. Check out Dr. Phil on the Joe Rogan Podcast. He quotes some super scary statistics on how addictive opioids are.

Yep

They absolutely are... there is no doubt about it. But see how far you get with a couple of joints after someone cuts your gut open to remove something, or your knee replacement, or whatever. Just sayin'... everything has its place.

So, when are they going to pass "constitutional growing" and cut big brother out of the money loop?

Never, money 's Big G's lifeblood. Remove money and it dies along with those ........... with it.

This part caught my eye in this bill

H. No person holding a medical marijuana license may unduly be withheld from holding a state issued license by virtue of their being a medical marijuana license holder. This would include such things as, including but not limited to a concealed carry permit.
