aGENT Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 he was arguing why people would feel guilty.. funding people to kill one another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilduce39 Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 I for one think that general legalization is a good thing, decriminalization of course being just as good but without the cash windfall we could make. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
key2thecup Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 Actually if it is legalized you will see a huge rise in criminal activity of even larger scale grow ops. Major turf wars on who controls the legal pot distribution in the area. The home fires from idiots growing at home etc. Decriminalization will slowly lift the veil of ignorance and maybe we can even convince major industry to start using it again for everything under the sun.

Mr.DirtyDangles Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 I don't agree with the increase in gang violence from legalization. I believe it'd be the opposite. The fire thing makes sense, but then grow op supplies will be more readily available allowing people to grow safely in there homes. Hell you can buy that stuff now as its sold for indoor 'gardening'..... also those major fires you see at grow ops are the huge 1000+ plant grow shows.... not someone having a handful of plants. Yeah there are soo many uses for the plant other than the bud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr.DirtyDangles Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 I agree 100%... I'll admit I didn't always but it makes sense.. legalize it, tax it, educate people about it, put the THC amount on the front of the pack. Better than keeping it in the hands of the bad guys.

TOMapleLaughs Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 No more a guilty conscience than when any of us break the law by speeding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inane Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 Esp. when you don't even see the young women being gunned down. Everyone speeds. Doesn't cause people to want to stay in their homes for months. There was a spray of bullets in a mall parking lot just blocks from where i lived. For weed? Yup, weed.

Mr.DirtyDangles Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 Your first sentence what? Speeding kills more people than weed. So what's your point? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey, i guess the Cons can try and spin JT's admission that way too. "One puff? Somebody died for that, y'know..." lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

inane Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 The questions weren't needed though, as the points were made well enough. But here: "First sentence what?" Context of previous discussion involving gang wars around here and how young women were killed. If you don't 'see' them being killed, then how can you feel guilty about it, right? Anyway... Sar-ca-sm. "Speeding kills more people than weed" Around the time of the 2009 gang wars relating to marijuana, people were certainly more afraid of dying in public due to getting sprayed with bullets, not due to speeding, which, yup, everyone does, negating the importance of speeding when trying to make an argument of what creates a valid guilty conscience. If everyone smoked weed, then perhaps there would be an argument there though. Fair enough? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TOMapleLaughs Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 More people smoke weed than you think. I still don't even know what your overall point is. Seems that event scarred you and now you're scared. Legalizing weed would avoid that kind of gang warfare. Of course there's still all the other drugs but...

inane Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 The point is weed smokers have a valid reason to have a guilty conscience here, while speeders do not. The comparison doesn't work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
