DEA Agrees to Reschedule Cannabis

I haven't consumed it in the past 40 years, but I did consume a whole lot of it during the preceding decade, and I can say it's about time.

Like tobacco or alcohol, we shouldn't encourage minors to use it. Smoking anything is bad for your heart and lungs, and it's an anti-motivational drug if ever there was one, but if an adult who is educated, gainfully employed, and not caring for an infant or toddler, nor driving a motorized or non-motorized vehicle wants to consume a bit, the federal government is now in agreement with many states.

The medical uses are limited and over-emphasized. It's always been mainly a recreational drug, but it is important for researchers to be able to study it relatively unfettered, which has been impossible until now.

I wouldn't give Biden too much credit for this. There have always been those in the DEA and FDA who wanted it re-scheduled. Biden, in his diminshed state, seems like a poster boy for what excessive marijuana consumption can do to the brain, but if he took a break from a wrinkled skinny-dip to sign-off on this, I can say: "way to go, Joe."

I'm mildly in favor. Those greatly in favor should take a long hard look in the mirror when they have a grandson or grandaugher who doesn't want more in life than to sit on their parents' couch, smoke weed, and play video games for the rest of their lives.

There, but for the grace of God and its Shedule I classification, went I as a youth.

 

A quarter of all federal prisoners are still harmless potheads, but this is the first real step, and proves that money can buy relief from the courts.

Sometimes, justice is simply being left alone.

 

Oh, thank you daddy Your decision may be 70 --80 years late, but thank you so much. Good thing no one had to go to jail because of weed, daddy. Thank you for your all-knowing magnificence. ( curtsies and backs away slowly)

 

Why is the story "DEA agrees" who makes the laws the people or these 3 letter agencies?

 

Well you people complain...........i live in the Netherlands and weed is still illegal........*sigh*

By law it is "tolerated"(smoking/growing).......and mostly get thrown out of courts........but if they really want screw you they still can.

Also for shopholders they abite by laws(age/ect), pay taxes...............but have to buy there stock/merchandise illegally, with all risks(ripdeals)
