Hey Tim,
Very well said and from a very interesting pov. Kinda makes you wonder if some of our brilliant politicians have given thought to your view already. Problem I suspect we’re having is they cant figure out how to regulate it to their advantage. Thus u and I get penalized when caught without a card. Just a thought ” may be cheaper not to legalize”
Just learned about two weeks ago I could have cancer PA please legalize soon for people like me who may actually need it!
you can get a medical marijuana card in every state you just have to know where to look.

I love smoking weed! Its more of a life style for me. I use it for good use. When I can’t get to bed at night I’ll roll a joint or pack a bowl and I’ll be to sleep no longer than a half hour to be passed out til morning. I wish I didn’t have to hide it as much as I do so put the good word out for the 312, Illinois, Chi-town you know where’s it at!!
When I was in school i experimented with marijuana and contrary yo published expectations my GPA skyrocketed.I used for several years. but eventually gave it up,due to random drug testing for employment.
I have since been seriously injured,and currently take hard narcotics legally.I often wonder if by returning to marijuana use I could reduce and or eliminate the need for vicodin and or percocett,unfortunately I am not in a liberal or even a compassionate state, in fact from what i understand my state Florida, is the worst.
I believe Marijuana should be legalized taxed and used to provide better education. Current laws prevent someone that may have a problem with addiction from seeking help! it is most likely that a lot of addicts started using drugs for fun and or in defiance.Americans are first taught that this is America and we can do anything,we then are told you cant do that,as Americans our first thought is yes we can. We are (Amer I Cans) Not (Amer I Can Nots).
Addiction to drugs is a serious problem not just here but everywhere. Addictions kill a lot of people and also finance Black Markets legalization would take away the Black Markets and also reduce the world wide addiction problems; An addict with an unlimited supply of “dope’ will do one of two things, die or get tired of whatever substance they are addicted to and quit. This is a harsh reality, but nevertheless a reality!
yay for az one more step to legalization for rec use
