Pot cures allergies by making you really dig that homemade pizza with the smoked mozzarella and chopped green onions. You know man. The one we made for the hobbit movie. No, the second one. Did I ever tell you that my uncle looks like Gollum? Yeah, you can totally see it if you look at him from the right side. From the left side he just looks like a skinny Jabba the Hut from the original Star Wars--before the CGI crap was added in.

Hey, is anyone hungry for some pizza?

I bet the delivery guys get really tired of that "Dave's not here" shtick.

Papa Juan's delivery?
extra shrooms

if they deliver beer and pizza too......

If I could legally get some nice pot, I would smoke it.

It's been 20 years since I had any.

This is where you were supposed to tell us all that pot makes you into a rage zombie from 28 days later. Because that's the government's official line on what cannabis does to you.

i'm high as fark right now, so i'm really getting a kick out of these replies.

well, not so much a kick, more a nudge.

Damn hippy farks in CA are driving up the price of good weed allover the country.

As it should be. Fortunately, it's hard to justify spending the money to lock up pot-heads in an economic crunch. When push comes to shove, the lawmakers have to grudgingly accept they'll have to settle with going after murderers and rapists instead of easier targets.

And freedom will come rolling back all because uncle Sam just can't afford the alternative. Guess the economic "crater" has some positive sides.

Hey guys! I've got this really funny headline. It's a quote from an article with part of an irrelevant meme at the end. It's gonna be hilarious.

Weaver95: This is where you were supposed to tell us all that pot makes you into a rage zombie from 28 days later. Because that's the government's official line on what cannabis does to you.

No, no, no...pot makes everyone who smokes it lazy and stupid. I learned that from the Fark "I've never tried it and if you attempt to tell me anything different than what the government says about it I'll stick my fingers in my ears and scream 'LA LA LA LA LA' at the top of my lungs" Brigade^®.

"More and more, having premium pot delivered to your door in California is not a crime. It is a legitimate business." Serious business

Serious business? Sounds like...RISKY BUSINESS!

the thing about pot being illegal, and thereby completely unregulated is that it actually makes it WAY easier for kids to get it.

i know a lot of teenagers who smoke pot all the time and have no problem finding and buying it, but whenever they want alcohol or cigs they need someone else to buy it for them.

if it were legal and regulated like alcohol it would drive the gangs out of business (out of the pot business at least), cuz noone would want to buy some home-grown weed from some dude if they could go to a liquor store buy a pack of Marlboro or Jack Daniels or Newport Joints.

those tobacco companies would have their scientists engineer the best weed imaginable.

i don't smoke it, but i don;t care who else does, and it seems to me that if it were legal and regulated it would be a lot harder for kids to get their hands on.

Well, somebody should've told this to Robert Parish before he got his weed delivered by Fedex.

TheMadChaosopher: those tobacco companies would have their scientists engineer the best weed imaginable.

heh. no, if they had half a brain they'd mix weed with nicotine so that it'll become addictive. then they'd deny it in court (cuz you know, nicotine isn't addictive), pay off the congressmen and voila.

"Tell Sampson I said hi."

Either legalize pot on a federal level or do away with alcohol sales. Smoking pot is probably safer and helps you get through a Dominoes Pizza easier.

TheMadChaosopher: those tobacco companies would have their scientists engineer the best weed imaginable.

Why would they do that when they can buy seeds from Canada or The Netherlands that already are some of the best strains that growers have to offer? Some of the strains out there now will knock your dick in the dirt. There are several varieties that are consistently over 20% THC content. And if you make kief or hash from them...holy crap!

In order to cut out the black market, the government will have to keep the price so low it's cheaper to buy than to grow your own or buy from someone who grows.

I agree to a point, but there is one huge difference. Cigarettes and booze are a lot tougher to produce than pot. Even if legalized and regulated you will still have people growing their own and selling it. That really weakens the comparison as enough people have to stop producing/selling to truly make it harder for kids to find. The bigger issue will be if the legalization lowers prices enough that the profit margin for the dealers move on to something else.

the Government doesn't have to "keep the price low", the competition between the tobacco and alcohol and whatever companies who sell it will keep the price down.

Ever heard of taxes? Put too many of them on pot and no one will want to buy what is legally produced.

even if it costs twice as much, i think most potheads would much rather buy quality product from a reputable company, instead of from some random guy growing who knows what in his basement.

i REALLY like beer, and i dont mind paying for Guinness cuz I am garranteed what i'll get.

buy pot from just anyone and you never know what to expect.

when i was a teen and i bought pot, it was like crap shoot, sometimes it was brown seedy crap, sometimes it was green and great.

i cant imagine its any different now.

they'll just go back to smuggling it again. Same as we do whenever liquor prices/controls get too much. Hmm....we do that with music as well, now that I think about it.

Smuggling - it's an American institution!

SharkTrager: The bigger issue will be if the legalization lowers prices enough that the profit margin for the dealers move on to something else.

Heh. I seriously doubt that street level pot dealers think about profit margins. It also seems unlikely that a grow house is going to go into business producing meth instead of growing because of profit margins.

You don't know too much about marijuana grow operations, do you? They have several places like this in Canada and Europe. Lots of people buy from them. Most people aren't gonna grow ditch weed because they'll never get repeat customers.

Yea! POT thread!

Once they start collecting taxes on something, it becomes a necessary source of revenue. A source they won't easily give up once the real revenue potential is realized.

After the Revolution, the fledgling government started taxing Alcohol as a means of revenue to help pay down the war debt. We tried Prohibition and it failed. The loss of revenue from alcohol taxes and the subsequent rise of the criminal element that catered to the demand for alcohol doomed Prohibition.

I see this as the first step in a process that will eventually legalize pot. Once the Government gets a taste of that tax money, there is no going back.

Which is the exact reason why all drinkers have a still in their backyard, a home brewing operation in their kitchen, and all smokers have an allotment of 10 tobacco plants in their garden. Sure, right.......

Pot will become legal. I quit this year because I need to drop 10 lbs. I miss my smoke, Oh well enough about me, Smoke it if you have it.

Dave? Dave? DAVE?

/Only to those w/ proper paperwork
/email is in profile

I'd bet every penny that I'll earn in my lifetime that pot will not be legal within the next 20 years

/wants it legalized

Same thing is available in NYC sans perscription.

/and cash only.

So are companies still allowed to do drug screens before hiring? Or are you given a pass on it if you got a script?

Is this the end of pee tests?

What is not a pseudoscience is the fact that the gov ha no right to make it illegal in the first place, you fascist.

The_Philosopher_King: So are companies still allowed to do drug screens before hiring? Or are you given a pass on it if you got a script?

Nope, pee tests will still be legal. In fact, at least in WA, an employer is not required to accommodate MMJ patients at all. Just because it's legal for you, it doesn't mean you can force your work to let you do it there.

/THC in food FTW

It's not. I(and many of my friends) would gladly pay twice what we do now if we knew exactly what we were getting beforehand. In the black market, it seems there is never one single dude who can always get similar quality stuff. Sometimes it's good, sometimes it's bad, and sometimes you question whether there was ever any THC in it to begin with. It's very annoying.

The bottom line is very, very simple:
Those who wish to smoke pot... do.

Sorry, that article was mostly bullshiat.

Example:


Oaksterdam University's main campus is a prominent fixture in revitalized downtown Oakland.

All without legalization.


lol wut?

fuzzwell: If I could legally get some nice pot, I would smoke it.

Same here. Waiting eagerly for legalization. Will buy ASAP.

Husband will be pissed -- he's a "Friend of Bill". Will have to see if the marriage survives. Apparently, I'm not allowed a choice.

/make the bulk of the income

Is there any way to convict lawmakers of murder? They made pot illegal , therefore expensive , hence gangs are murdering citizens in drug wars.......... connect the dots..........................

Anyone willing to do the research (and assume the inherent risk of getting busted) can grow high quality weed.

Potency is 95% genetics and 5% environmental. Once you understand the environmental aspect, all you need is access to quality genetics.

It's a weed. It flourishes in an amazingly wide environmental spectrum.
