Feds Allow Tribes On Reservations To Grow Cannabis

Does this mean you'll be able to smoke a joint at your local casino if you live in America now?

 

If an American citizen, for example has Indian heritage, say...four generations back, would I qualify as an Indian, thus getting to go legal? hehe

 

I must say it is very surprising to me that all Native Americans on the rez are not embracing the idea of growing and selling marijuana. I am aware of the constant struggle they have against alcohol and drug abuse.

However, I didn't see weed sales as being something they would associate with their problems...since it is a plant and actually nothing is required to do to this plant to "use" it...plant it, pick/harvest it, use it - smoking or make edibles. Plus they would or could make money!

With alcohol and all other drugs there must be some processing in order to use it.

Like I said, I'm very surprised.

 

live 50k from Mohawk territory...they have the best dispensary around...the elders had to ok first though

legacy420....look it up ....I am heading there in about 3 hours...they open at 8am

 

Pass the peacepipe!

 

I am going to admit that it certainly seems everything is better or more progressive in Canada. Maybe being surrounded by freezing cold and snow so much of the year has something to do with it (probably not )...but for whatever reason, Canada seems to have it much much better than down here in the states. People get along better, no diaper wearing liars for your PM.

Even the rez(es) up there aren't bickering about weed.

good grief I would think this would be ONE thing they could all agree on here in the states...looks like I was wrong, once again. smh

 

just returned...noticed a second dispensary sign which I will check out next time....I asked buddy at the store and he said they are a competing store...not affiliated

today they had at least 15 strains....all in jars for checking out and they just installed an industrial style magnifying glass on the counter for close-ups...they sell other things too like oils and edibles and several kinds of hash....I never get the concentrates though....out of my pay grade

 

I was on the 745 am ferry to here.....the dude talking served me this morning....when you see the counter you may start crying.

.or ...you may book a plane ticket

^^^^ :bigcry: :bigcry: :bigcry:


Why in the world can't the US have a speck of common sense across the board, from coast to coast???!!!

Oh! Wait a minute! that's right - there is this group called the bible thumpers that feels EVERYTHING is wrong, including drinking wine, which just happened to be Jesus's 1st miracle.

Now I'm going to cry some more...or not...I'm going to make some decarboxylated, soy lecithin enhanced weed firecrackers.

I still feel bad for the ENORMOUS good weed does and how it helps so very many different medical (and emotional) problems, despite how it is demonized here in the bible belt. smh We don't just have the nut-case bible thumpers; but, also Big Pharma to thank for making it so very very difficult to legalize a plant.

 

Weed gives me anxiety, if I smoke at a party I end up drinking to much cause I am now using the alcohol to try and shut down the weed feeling.

I think Marijuana use will go down after further legalization, teens are always looking for rebellious things to do. Hey do you want to smoke some illegal marijuana ? Yes, screw the system ! Lets smoke and be bad asses ! Just try and tell me I am not allowed.

Hey do you want to smoke some of this hemp I just bought legally at the store as easily a stick of butter ? No, not right now maybe later.

I bet usage goes down.

 

in theory at least, feds have no legitimate authority there to stop them.

 

What if they want to put a pipeline right through a marijuana field?

 

Tsk!

 

Like someone mentioned, why doesn't the US do more about this?

Politics, my friend...damn politics.
In my state, 58% were in favor of legalization. According to what I've read, Indiana is projected to be the second to the last state to possibly legalize.
It's not Bible Thumpers, its Politics.
Yes we have our share of bible thumpers. And among them is some of our share of potheads too. Don't be fooled...
We've got states all around us, showing interest in legalization.

BTW, that pipeline comes out of Canada, so it may well be passing through marijuana fields. Our Congress needs an animal prod, to wake them up and do their job. 28% of our oil comes from the middle east. Majority is from Canada. I say we get the hell out and let those five crazy bastard militant groups kill each other, and not trade with them. Fuck their oil.

 

isnt weed legal in america everywhere

 

Not yet, but it will be.

 

for the vast majority of human history, drinking some form of alcoholic beverage was MUCH safer than drinking plain water, even in Jesus's time.

cannabis has been identified as one of the ingredients in the anointing oil used in the temple in the OT., so....
what I always chuckle at is whenever a "thumper" starts going on about drugs and shit when most don't even know what the Bible actually states concerning it.
the only actual condemnation concerning drugs mentioned is in specific connection to divination/witchcraft/sorcery, other than that very little if anything is mentioned pro or con regarding drugs.
Nor does the Bible condemn alcohol, only drunkenness and excess.

what did Paul say....
New American Standard Bible
All things are lawful, but not all things are profitable. All things are lawful, but not all things edify.

King James Bible
All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but all things edify not.

Darby Bible Translation
All things are lawful, but all are not profitable; all things are lawful, but all do not edify.

World English Bible
"All things are lawful for me," but not all things are profitable. "All things are lawful for me," but not all things build up.

Young's Literal Translation
All things to me are lawful, but all things are not profitable; all things to me are lawful, but all things do not build up;


so there ya go.
