Of all the folks on the planet, you'd think the pot growers would be able to get along. I'd almost always rather burn one with somebody than argue. There was a day when I could really get into argument. Looking back I think I was wrong about half the time. Truth is I have few answers and when I stake a claim it's based more on emotion than logic, facts or objective truth (if such a thing exists). I do believe things. Like history can be a guide to us. At the most basic level, your own personal history must be remembered lest you keep grabbing hot stoves. We should all remember the hot stoves we have burned our hands on.
lets see what sessions has up his sleeves. i like spicer, didn't care for his pot response yesterday. sessions is a states rights guy, and trump admin is pushing very hard that way which i absolutely love.....but lets see if hysteria is being made over the recreational use, or if trump admin is going to have it's first hypocrisy moment...and a big one at that. see SuperMo, you only had to wait a few to get me on board, still not on board yet as I want to see if they withhold funds like they plan on doing with sanctuary cities. honestly i see trump and sessions rescheduling marijuana in a couple years or just prior to the next election cycle. it's going to help with reelection, and also it will let sessions keep his hard right stance without being a hypocrite
You're dreaming bro. And you thought Sanders was wishful and full-o-shit? Sessions rescheduling.... Where in his history do you even come up with such crap? That speculation alone has no basis in Sessions record or statements concerning cannabis. It's a nonsense wishful statement with no bearing in reality. My brother.... You and I disagree on much, but please, stop putting your personal hopes out there as possible realities under these guys. The two aren't even close.
You obviously didnt see spicer yet, see mg thread. Fed just made distinction and acknowledged medical marijuana and said it helps people. Sure as hell didn't hear that the previous 8 years, but did hear cbd is schedule 1 now and fda never even acknowledged it as a drug, just supplement
I posted this elsewhere. It answers this question too. "Spicer made it clear the Administration intends to respect state MMJ laws, but intends to increase prosecutions for recreational use. That means more cops looking to cash in on government $$ to bust cats like me. Not an improvement in my book since state MMJ laws are already being respected and have been for the past two Administrations. Spin bro, that's all it is."
Just wait for the boot up your ass.... Gestapo bros. State laws HA HA HA HA HA HA He's practicing on the Mexicans and ferners. Next it's PRIVATIZED JAILS and all the z"criminals". the bbbbaaaahhhhdddddddd criminals law and order Nip. Ainlt you been listening?
Oh and no oversight over those private jails. Like really small government. Just big enough to fit in your basement.
I do like a really small government, I don't understand the big government issue. I just don't, nor do I understand the jackboots. The county with the highest rate of incarceration in a zero tolerance state....one that 6 months ago would have jailed you for a roach in the car just stopped making marijuana arrests unless its sizable anounts and you're complaining. We may have actual federal medical marijuana and you're complaining. Guess life would be better if we're nuking russia. To be honest, disappointed in dnc, they had a chance to ensure trump 8 years and pence another 8 after that yesterday. They didn't do the slam dunk but we're getting close. Because you have an irrational fear of freedom, so you want to usher in those that support sharia law with their pink pussy hats and new found love for Islam with ellison. So instead of rejoicing about people that actually risk prison to seek treatment now man be able to get help without prison, let's hold that party line....and support way a group that has thrown us in prison. In the end, I'd rather be legal and help sick kids then help the dnc take the white house, because I'm a terrible person because of the color of my skin, and the fact that I have a penis.
Nip, I dig ya bro...but you've gone off the rails. Are you reading what you type? Who's talking Sharia? Who said you're terrible because of your ethnicity or gender identity? Pink pussy hats? We don't want tech training? Colleges are drunk playgrounds? Wtf man. You're assuming much and actually saying very little. What I see is posts about politics of division, hate, fear and punishment. You're actually defending private prisons now...private prisons....think about that. Private, for profit, prison centers that over the past 20 years have made billions in profits by lobbying for escalation of drug and cannabis penalties. That's called throwing your fellow growers under the bus because you really really like a politician. Thanks man....thanks a fuck of a lot. Glad you got my back...or maybe not. One of us is conflating, projecting and speculating about crap nobody is even thinking about. And it ain't me.
Have you seen who put on woman's March? And who is organizing next? Cmon, don't play for an idiot. You agree sharia is just misunderstood and it actually will be beneficial because woman can't get charged interest? Where you been, white males created every social I'll known to man. And my daughter is on break for college, don't act like it's not a huge party for most.....and the overwhelming number get a useless peice of paper. Site anything other wise. Teach trades and co op is far more useful in my eyes. But same as my daughter, she'd have to be adult if that happened....kudos to you for raising a girl not like that, mine is, all her friends are, every one I know that age are...same as we were And ellison, almost number 1 man in dnc, but number 2. You're cool with that? Wtf, trump raked over the coals for David duke saying he liked Donald, nothing more that that....hell came to earth for that....but you're cool with a card carrying member of a hate group leading you? You serious man? Oh private prisons...really res? Dnc just voted to allow big money again....from the fucking unions that run the other fucking prisons. Oh that's right it's just the corporate donors to rnc is bad, totally ok if the union, the f7ckers making life hell for people pay dnc right? It's same as immigration, both sides want em, bignore money for cheap labor, dems for more votes and power...you actually think there's other reasons we haven't fixed it yet? That's right, if we put our hopes in a man that sold out for a shitty lake house and private jet wed all be saved. Now we should put our faith in a man that admires one of the biggest racists of modern time...that this country has ever known. Good luck with that. I'd never throw anyone under the bus, my ass been in the trenches for to long. Reality will hit me in a few months when I realize I didn't pay the right guy enough money for my plan even though I'm sure it's superior to go legit and I'll be back in the trenches. And I'm off the deep end? Shit, we just got a golden gift to the industry but it's not cool to like anything Donald trump does, so let's cut off our nose to spite our face...SuperMoChombo and you talking about jackboots and private prisons like fema camps...when we just got a golden gift for millions of people. You know you both always welcome in my house, we just see this vastly differently.
Got to be. Nip, much love man, but that's the most incoherent stuff I've ever seen you type. Your support for Session's is throwing me and every other illicit grower under the bus. You can't support a long time Prohibitionist while telling your friends he's going to good things for weed producers. It's called intellectual dishonesty.
nah, just calling out the hypocrisy. that bothers me more than anything. democrats have done as much for marijuana industry as they have for inner cities. their policy creates the biggest divide, the biggest income gap, it's just the worst thing and after 8 years i think most of us agreed to that on election night the same fight this is nationally that we are arguing over about weed is the same exact fight my state had over the past 2 years with dems wanting recreational but of course only a handful of rich guys got super rich...oh and you get longer prison sentences for lesser of charges....and the republicans wanted strictly medical no recreational. by 2 to 1 we choose the medical over recreational. I fought against outright legalization in my state sponsored by dems because it would have sent me to prison....while making their donors (actually most were part of hillarys state operation) billions upon billions upon billons and that could never have changed, not even by law. and hear you guys are, calling me the dumbass when we are about to get what my state just passed on the national level. because we designed our law to be the national standard. to think there will be a time when you can have it sitting on the porch, yea, i look forward to that. But how many families you going to hurt along the way? how many people come here to GK to learn a trade to feed their families? you ever think about them people. or do we get jobs for the rich guys on their farms, like migrant labor for migrant labor pay? its like the troll we had that was a hard core bernie guy, he never wanted to grow weed, never wanted a job or a company producing weed, just free shit, and free weed. how many people have grown weed to support their families??? you guys hate trump more than you care about them i'd at least like the opportunity to make a living, not beg for hand outs for a rich donor to the industry....must be that indy streak i have in me
Sessions is a Prohibitionist, always has been. You support Sessions. The math is simple. Rationalize all you want.
Sessions isn't president, and the president stated his thoughts on the matter And for record, Id stand without a doubt with a prohibitionist way before a racist. Ellison is a racist...free pass though because he's dnc I guess
Who gives a fuck about the DNC or Ellison? He's not President or Attny General. Typical misdirection while pretending to address Session's lifelong hard line position on cannabis Prohibition and how supporting him negatively affects growers and expansion of recreational legalization. Again, support for Jeff Sessions as Attny General hurts your brother growers in illicit states and hurts legal recreational growers in legal states. Period. It does nothing for MMJ since the previous Presidential Administration already recognized the Right of State's to allow access for medical use. Maintaining the status quo on MMJ while going after recreational use/supply with greater intensity hurts every single person on this board. Rationalize all you want, the truth is still the truth.
Actually Congress not a previous admin did no raids, Obama still raided, I really don't know where you getting info from. Congress withdrew moneyes against medical...not obama. To say he did a single thing for marijuana is a lie, flat out. Obama made an otc supplement a schedule 1...fucking cbd is schedule 1 because of obama and you praising him? And fed government recognized medical does more for all growers than anything...wtf? It removes funding to kick down our doors. I just highly disagree with you on this, join the opposition, hate the honkies, it's all good, still welcome in my home but it's crazy in my opinion. Someone offering a golden gift and snubbing nose because it's not exactly what you want meanwhile it helps millions is crazy in my opinion. But hey, let's stand behind people that hate whites Christians and jews...because it's popular
