What was the beneficial purpose of the 2A?

What would be the beneficial purpose of legalizing meth?

We have the 2nd Amendment for guns. There is no such thing for drugs. I'd prefer to leave it up to the individual states where the citizens themselves can vote on their drug policy.

I am and it is legal

making a tea of the blossoms is also legal

refining it is not

Decades ago if it were up to me I would have made pot legal IF , you grew it yourself and kept it on your own property and made it have zero commercial value make the act of selling it illegal , give the seeds to be transported in quantities of 50 or less but no transporting it.

the issue is in super concentration and making it for others consumption not at your home.

Of course selling someone something doesn't harm anyone. That is only a business transaction. But the consumption of said product has the potential to cause death.

How should all of these hallucinogens and narcotics be taxed? Who is gonna regulate the potency and production? Where will the Coca and marijuana be farmed? In order to be safe we should also make all the products used to make meth legal. Will we need to offer even more free detox facilities and free methadone clinics?

And the most important question. Who pays the taxes for all of this? The bureaucracy will be immense.

And to be guarded with zeal and the harshest of penalties. I could not agree more.

At minimum, marijuana should be reclassified. The very definition of a Schedule I narcotic is that it has no currently accepted medical use and lack of accepted safety under medical supervision. This is pretty bogus considering how many states have legalized it for medical use, and the proven medical benefits.

Personal example: I had a significant shoulder surgery when I was 19. Instead of taking the doctor-prescribed heavy duty opiates (which are proven to be seriously addictive) I just used marijuana instead. It worked just as well as the opiates, but also allowed me to have an appetite and sleep like a baby.

100% in favor of medical use. Wish my mom would have tried medical marijuana or THC of some kind. She was addicted to oxy and it was brutal. Still alive and sober now.

Bingo!!!

The sky did not fall with legalized weed here.

I coon hunted with a guy like that once….we treed on the side of a corn field and when I shined the tree, he said look at em all…there’s hundreds of em. He thought every star in the sky was coon eyes!

Not from my experience. A couple of months back, I took a single hit and could barely function. It reminded me why I never liked weed. The stuff they produce now is nothing like what they produced back in the day, which for me was in the 70s. I'll stick with beer and scotch.

When the government can tell you what you can put in your body you loose freedom and it has creap. I can't butcher a cow on my farm and sell a lb of meat to a neighbor legally becuse I'm not a licensed processing facility. Same goes for selling a quart of goat milk.

O but it's for safety. People are to dumb to be able to.chose what they deam safe for their family. I'm sure the Mexicans in the processing plant care about sanitation and quality far less than I do considering I'm feeding myself and family out of the same freezer.

But what can you say some people need to feel like the government keeps them safe and won't take responsibility to do that for themselves.

Ha! Similar. I took a hit from a friend a few months ago and it ruined me for the night and into the next day. I hit it hard though like it was 1999 all over again.

I do feel like a hypocrite though because I drink which I feel is more destructive.

Same here, but like it was 1979 all over again.

Make it federally legal than let the states decide then tax it Federally and lower our income tax. Right now its a joke that it is federally banned but all but six states make it legal. The feds found out long ago with booze you cant stop people from drinking, or gambling just as well stop the nonsense and tax it. I have never used it most likely because it was not around when I was a kid and never needed it in Nam the beer was enough.

If only there was a better way to have accountability for peoples bad choices the ones abusing themselves the most are supported by the folks making better choices. I see the handicapped van going down the road and they are smoking a cigarette and see zero accountability there and nothing will be done about it they don’t care!

No shortage of pearl clutching up in here. Lol

… one hand in here even seen somebody smoking a cigarette while driving

… must be a rough area lol

… I was hunting with wild ol hand from Crockett one time

.. I was tired and he said he had some truck driver pills …. I took one of those and you talk about being alert now lol

… I have no idea what that was but it definitely wasn’t caffeine lol

That sounds like either some laced weed, or you smoked the best ganja ever...Got a challenge for you...Haven't smoked in years, but bring the best weed you can find, and I will take 3 hits, talk a bit and walk off the porch with no problem.

Then, I'll pour you a glass of moon...You won't finish it....And I'll pack you off the porch, Lol

You can have the stuff. I also could not move when I tried it in the past. Stuck in a chair outside listening to INXS just blown away with the music.
Ate a whole bag of radishes and texted everyone I knew about radishes insisting that they try them.

While that is funny, I was really worried because I could not function whatsoever. If someone needed help I couldn’t do anything.
