Why does it have to be this way?

[Title]

You like seeing good people getting fucked by the law just for smoking weed?

I never said that. Good people are going to get fucked over all the time. That doesn't mean a bill needs to be passed.

hi im title.

liberals want to legalize weed therefore i'm against it hurp durp

Totally dude. You've got me all figured out. Considering legalization of weed really has very little to do with political standpoints and considering I'm about as socially liberal as you can get, it's totally logical to assume that I'm against legalization because liberals are for it. There are a shitload of conservatives for it as well. Herp derp.

It's not right for the Government to be in control of  the prices for anything, and that includes weed. See how much fun you're having when you're paying 50 dollars per gram just in taxes. Trust me, as long as you're smart about not getting caught, legalization will do nothing but hurt the stoner community.

Legalization may... but would decriminalization really hurt?

It does when the only benefit to criminalization is protecting corporate interests of:
1. Private prison industry
2. Tobacco Industry
3. Corn industry (corn ethanol)
4. Oil industry
5. Previously DuPont. Not entirely sure if it's true anymore (Hemp fiber directly in conflict with nylon)

What are actual legal benefits of criminalization other than "oh durrrrrr i will have to pay more somehow for it". That isn't going to fly in the senate.

It's not right for the Government to be in control of  the prices for anything, and that includes weed.

You're an idiot.
No serious debate would include "lol weed is going to be more expensive" as a reason to keep it illegal. That would only condone illegal activity.

See how much fun you're having when you're paying 50 dollars per gram just in taxes.

Where are you getting these figures?

Currently in Oakland the tax on medical marijuana is 18 dollars per 1000 dollars. At 20 per g that's about 50 sales of a gram each.
50/18=$2.77 tax per gram. Slightly higher than the tax per box of cigarettes in the northeast.  Factor in that the high cost of weed is due to risk (why charge close to production costs when getting caught can lead to life in jail when you can charge for the risk of that) and the cost will remain abut the same, give or take a few dollars.

Trust me, as long as you're smart about not getting caught, legalization will do nothing but hurt the stoner community.

How about you pass laws based on what's logical and not what's "omg my weed is more money". No one cares about "the stoner community". You're condoning an illegal action as a reason to keep something illegal.

I would enjoy mindfucking my teacher, as well as getting all enthusiastic about it, like: "Holy shit...so when you put this fuckton of energy on the electron, you can't actually get the velocity to go faster than light, even on the electron...meaning that kinetic energy as we know it is fucked up and wrong...and implying that there is such a thing as the contraction of mass at high speeds, relativistic mass. let me be the first to say: holy shit spacetime"

diphenhydramine "high" is not like that, it's like dry shitty delirium, and not even enough to feel dissociated

also you need at least like 300mg probably

[Daddy]

Benadryl works better when mixed with DXM or alcohol.

[Daddy]

also i've never tried that

however

do not mix dxm and alcohol it makes you silly
