  1. Instead of just dropping this tripe off on this site, why don't you explain why you are dropping off this tripe on this site?
    Meet pharma producer numero uno, Jose Mujica. He tells you he wants to rip the market away from cartels. He tells you you'll get it at a pharmacy. He tells you that it is highly addictive.
     
    He sounds totally, completely trustworthy. Plus, its on CNN, so it MUST be true.

    Just wondering, why are you so against any attempt at decrim/legalization...is it because you feel it will have an effect on your making a living?

    Why do folks like you take to insulting insinuations when someone has any well-founded opposition to special interest gravy trains?
    Been on this site for years. Have medical issues. I'd benefit from a true legalized landscape. So forgive me if that is exactly what I am fighting for. And every example put forth as "legalization" I look who wrote it, who funded it, and whom it will ultimately benefit, and have yet to find an initiative that doesn't follow the special interest gravy train path.
     
    What is Jose Mujica telling YOU in this oh so informative video?? Tell me what I'm seeing then if I'm so wrong?
    This socialist dictator has it all right in the world, does he? CNN isn't a joke of a prohibitionist media organization? Since when? Since they started telling everyone what they wanted to hear?
     
    I'd like someone to point out, just once, why an iniative IS valid. Why the persons behind it have no conflicts of interest. See, persons like yourself never seem to have these answers, but you lend your support to all this stuff.
     
    WHY? It SOUNDS like what you want?

    Well, keep up the good work, I can tell you're really for legalization...
     
  5. why do i have to give you anything? 
    take the information and do what you want with it.
     
    thought you would not bother me and i would not bother you anymore? it's pretty annoying to have you pop up in every thread and demand everyone to comply with your opinion. 
     
  6. I comment in threads because I am well informed. I don't demand anything. I try to make people THINK. And to date, a few people seem to have issues with that concept and instead lend their support to every bill placed in front of them. I won't stop doing what I am doing here, as I fully believe in my analysis and my observed outcomes to date have not invalidated ANY of my analysis of the "legalization" movement we see before us.
     
    Everyone likes to get butt hurt if someone makes good points which invalidate their own. So go after me with all you have. Tell me how I am totally wrong. Provide the examples you kids are always crying for me to spoon feed to you why I SHOULD believe in these proposed laws.
     
    Two way street, junior.

    It isn't your "good points" and your heart felt analysis that is annoying, it is the constant negativity you bring.
     
    The approval citizens have with their government will never be ideal. But, the voters have slowly but surely started to think for themselves, and are approving and demanding change in terms of how we perceive this drug.
     
    If you disagree, I recommend less typing, and more speaking and doing. If you are a true and genuinely active activist, which no one for sure could verify, then i apologize. 
     
    Also, consider putting your deep analysis to work on more important issues, such as clean water in Africa, as opposed to a drug that is already being used and enjoyed by a good chunk of america, regardless of the legal classifications. 
     
  8. Never mind the message, so long as its a happy one.
     
    Go to sleep. Go to sleep. It will all be over soon, dear.

    Classic Floating By.. saying a whole bunch of nothing.
     
     
    Dearest, why project at me that it will be over soon? It is you who is laying on the chemo bed.
     
  10. I'm not interested in making sure my words are syrupy sweet for every fragile ego out there. And to make light of someone with medical issues is pretty much in line with the general lack of compassion we see from the prohibs and now everyone that wants their easy weed access that they'll never get in the end anyway.
     
    So like the rest of my fan club: show me a bill worth supporting and lets discuss it. I read, interpret, and point out the shortcomings of these bills. Its REALITY. Sorry you don't want to deal with it, as yes, it is pretty grim a lot of the time. Man up.
     
  11. I agree with floating_by on this one. I mean, OP, you could of expanded on why you posted this video here and what it means to you.

    I get this kind of weird vibe from all this legalization movement; I might not be the best informed, so please excuse me. 

    I just have this feeling that we will take the weed out from the people, and into the hands of the big pharma. And how about reparations for the peoples who's lives have been fucked up by the drug war. We have been exploited by this ''war''; and now, we will turn the page as if nothing happened. The guilty expertly jumping wagons; onto the legalization bandwagon!

    I want to read more about it before talking more of this subject; but we should not be so aggressive towards each other. Gotta spread positivity :smoke:
     
  12.  
    i don't think you've followed floating dog's posts too much... 
    yeah i could've elaborated... but for what? i just shared the link to the interview. (must've missed the rule where each link to an article or video has to be pre-faced with some personal poem).
     
    if you honestly want my personal opinion then i feel completely indifferent about this one way or another. 
     
  13. In all actuality, I have never really read any other posts he made; so I am agreeing, from what I have read here.

    I mean, no one is forcing you to write anything. It is just of my opinion, that If I were to share a video, I would explain my point of view, in an attempt to start a discussion of some kind.

    You could of elaborated for your own sake. Even if there might not be many people replying to this thread, just the act of putting your thoughts into writing can be of some relief.

    :smoke:
     
  14.  
    good suggestion, but i was on my phone so i didn't feel like typing  :smoke:

    Come on. You know how the (D)ouch bags feel. If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all ( unless it's part of their agenda). Lol.
     
  16. Relax, I will do nothing of the sort.
     
    I am not asking you to sugar coat anything.. I get that the system is rigged. Just leave your paranoid conspiracies to yourself.
     
    Unless you actually know what is behind the curtain, stop implying that it is all bad.
     
    Because, really, who the fuck knows? 
     
    All we know as the people, is that the movement is at least giving us something that we desire that we did not have before. 
     
    Yes, it will be taxed. Yes, they benefit. BUT SO DO WE! So just leave it at that.
     
    If you disagree, identify something specific that the government is doing, which you think is wrong, and debate it.
     
  17. Ahh yes. More tinfoil hats.
    Who knows what's going on?? It's right In front of your face. How can you not tell what is going on
     
  18. I am not talking about this fucking marijuana issue.. in the grand scheme of things who gives a fuck?
     
    What I am saying, is no one has the ability to foresee the governments actions.
     
    Money gets paid, minds change, oh, and by the way, these sociopath politicians are well aware of what image they are projecting, and most likely have a totally different agenda.
     
  19. posting a link and only a link gets the thread closed...
    threads are discusions, please start the discussion with the op.
