How has legalizing weed in some states worked out for America?
>>74165869
They flaunt the additional tax income without knowing what it will cost them in the future.
>>74166002
Aren't you doing that with immigrants already? Except that there isn't income in shitskins.
>>74165869
Its degenerate and haram, intoxicants have no place in a healthy society. 'Dude weed lmao 420' culture says enough about how corrosive it is on youth.
It's against Islamic culture. I hope such kaffir ideas come to the UK.

Cheap labor maybe, but they don't create any new jobs.

It'll result un hashshashin, just wait for it.
>>74166122
>'Dude weed lmao 420' culture
Literally a goddamned meme that you scroll past on the way to the other memes that are your only window on reality.
Slap yourself, kid. Fuckin' snap out of it. And if you're staying away from weed because you think it might adversely effect your mental faculties, I've got news for you: you don't need to worry about that, you are already stupid on your own.
At least on weed you might be stupid in a funny way.
>>74165869
Really well. It's been good for tourism and the local economy. It pulls a lot of the black market back into the official tax-earning market. And people are more tolerant and chilled out now. It's only a question of when all the other states will finally catch up.
>>74166122
Weed is way better than tobacco and alcohol, and should replace it.
>>74166218
No, you're the politician's bitch.

>>74166122
Outlawing weed doesn't stop people from smoking.
If I were to say that guns need to be banned because a few people get shot, you'd tell me that I am crazy and people will get guns anyway from Mexico.
Weed is even easier to get. It doesn't matter how illegal you make it, people will still smoke it.
The question isn't whether or not weed is good. The question is whether you want to simply deal with people who smoke weed, or do you want to deal with people smoking weed, illegal immigration, people hopping the border to sell weed, gangs, more violence, more crime, paying for jails etc.
they over valued the tax income of weed based on black market values. when something becomes legal the costs go down dramatically so the taxes collected from weed have been far below then what they thought.
>>74167001
Caffeine isn't an intoxicant.
>>74166161
i thought weed was halal since Morrocans smoke hasish.
>>74167162
Got news for ya buddy.
>>74167162
everything is toxic in certain quantities. Alcohol is a suppressant but caffeine and cocaine are stimulants. THC in marijuana or shrooms is a hallucinogen.
>>74166826
lol, ridiculously high rent where? In the big cities maybe.
Anybody who comes to Colorado to live in a fucking big city is a goddamned retard.
They got big cities all over this country, bigger and better in every way than fucking Denver or Colorado Springs.
The only fucking possible Earthly reason to come to Colorado is to move to the mountains.
All these little mountain towns have got pot shops too, just like the big cities only cheaper and usually higher quality as well.
But don't get me wrong, I'm glad all the idiots gravitate towards Denver. I hope the Mexicans eat them alive.
And I am Mexican and I have family in Denver and guess what? They're gang-bangers. And they tell me all the time about how they knock out white people just for smiling. So go ahead, move to Denver, dumb-dumb.
>>74167303
I mean depressant not suppressant.

Says the country who sat idly by as niggers burned down their towns.
>b-but it was their towns so it doesn't matter

I've heard that because pot is still federally illegal, the companies can't actually use their income for a lot of shit since it gets into messy tax-limbo.
Someone explain how this works.
>>74165869
Everything is horrible. There is anarchy in the streets and fires everywhere. It's the end of the world.

You must be one of the dumb Californians yourself, because we've been getting massive influx of Californians since the 70's.
Doesn't have a fucking thing to do with weed, you people are just cancer, you can't stay in one spot, you've gotta spread out and turn the next place into a tumor too.
What are you, literally 20? The fucking 70's are just a fairy tale to you. Like most shit that really happened.
>>74166002
You won't state what it costs in the future because you're argument is already full of shit

Please cite the # of deaths directly related to marijuana in a year.
Please cite the # of deaths directly related to alcohol in a year.
Please cite the # of deaths directly related to prescription drugs in a year.
Yup. Got any more anti-capitalist propaganda you wish to peddle?
>>74167098
Oh what crap. The tax revenues fluctuate wildly during the year, some months it's quite in excess of projections.
And oh by the way, there is literally NOTHING else going on in Colorado to prop up the fucking state economy. Nothing.
So if you like having jobs and a government and rule of law, you should get down on your knees and suck marijuana's fat cock.
>>74167026
This. Thanks for being rational. It really isn't even up for debate anymore. Weed should be legal and every day it's not is nothing short of tyranny and stupidity.

okay weed stoner guy. Let me guess, you also have a job making 300k a year and a hot gf, and you smoke just on the weekends
degenerate trash.
>>74166122
Your fucking stupid and probably have never smoked weed, weed is fucking amazing and helps with mental problems so much, much more than alcohol because unlike alcohol it fixes the problem it dosent just hide it. I had severe depression before I started to smoke weed, when I first smoked it I felt the happiest I've ever been in my life, and I continued to do it and my quality of life has since improved greatly. Not only are their mental benefits it also benefits the economy. It is proven to encourage brain cell growth as well. Weed is the master of all drugs. You can even drive while high on it
>>74165869
It killed the business of 2 pot dealers that I knew and makes getting edibles/drinkables easier now. I don't use thc due to my federal gov job but I think its great. Weed was common here with all age groups before legalization and the only new users were people like 50+ that just wanted to try it out once. Getting weed in high school was much easier than getting booze. Hopefully this will work towards changing that. Plus the tax money is good too.

Hell, most Muslims are flaming queers who like to fuck little boys, that ain't fuckin' halal neither.
It's all just rules for thee, not for me. The religious aspect of Islam is such a sideshow to what's really going on, it's all about extending sharia zones.
Eventually they want the whole world under Sharia except them. Just like any other tyranny, there's a ruling party that's above the law.
Their rules are for everyone BUT them to follow.

back in new jersey it was a serious crine even for a joint or a gram

>>74168156
Actually yes, I make ~250k a year, have a wife with big fake tits, 2 kids in middle school and a 3200sq ft house in one of the most affluent neighborhoods in the USA.
Furthermore I vote Republican and have epilepsy, which marijuana's anti-convulsant properties keeps me from flopping like a fish.
So stfu you trash leftist scum. Stop trying to stop the market with your draconian nonsense regulation.
Fucking moron.
In Washington state pot is of much better quality and price the cartels smuggle it southward with the guns and cash.
>>74166122
Weed is literally better in every way in comparison to tobacco and alcohol, both of which are perfectly legal and are much more likely to kill you by a huge margin. If anything the stuff we legally consume is degenerate and marijuana is the patricians choice if they need to do a drug. I would argue that all drug/alcohol use is degenerate, but almost everyone barring Jesus Christ needs a vice of some kind. Might as well give them one that is better than the alternatives.
>>74165869
I'm fine with weed but I hate people that won't shut up about how great it is and how it fuckin cures cancer like nigga what type of cancer you have

>And they tell me all the time about how they knock out white people just for smiling.
Niggerspic.
>>74165869
Every place it's decriminalized or legalized, there have been pretty near-zero downsides. Colorado saw drunk driving stats plunge by something like 30%-40% almost overnight. And, of course, a drop in prohibition-related "crime" to near-zero levels. No longer destroying lives and careers for smoking a joint in about a dozen states.
Now that we're heading into year 3 in some places, the tax revenues should be stabilized at somewhat higher levels than pic related.
>>74168414
exactly what I meant. all these young bastards shouting 'weed lma', 'no harm', 'no side effects', 'helped me out of depression'. totally cranked out of reallity.
>>74168132
My cousin Juan knocks out dudes like you weekly, bro.
And if he doesn't think he can knock you out, he'll fucking shoot you instead, so you can forget about UFC shit. If you knock out the first guy, you better grow wings and learn to fly, because the next thing will be carloads of armed vatos driving up and down the neighborhoods all day and all night looking for you.
If you think you can escape on foot, I can almost guarantee you no you won't.
Stay the fuck out of Denver, you are definitely one of the ones that would not know how to stay out of trouble. It's the guys like you, guys with your attitude that always get fucked up.
>>74168132
kek get a load of this effeminate 98 pounder.
My friend has a med card in cali.
He's depressed cuz a girl he liked died, was depressed before and that made it worse. Now he's in a total rut from only smoking weed and playing video games.
Weed really is not helping him any more than his anti depressants, and if anything keeps him in the rut because he doesnt feel like doing anything while high.
I'm not against legal weed, but I'm not for it because it fucks with my friends life.

Massachusetts is currently in the last signature-gathering phase, after which it should be confirmed to make it onto the ballot in November. We recently saw a poll come out that showed the initiative losing by 3 points (margin of error was 4.4 points), but that poll was clearly an aberration, as every other poll from 3/2014 to 4/2016 has had the initiative passing with anything from 49 to 57% of the vote. At the end of the day, when the votes actually get counted, I expect a victory for legalization in the state.
>>74168521
What about jobs related information?
What's the employment rate like? Even if it's legal I doubt many employers want their employees stoned at work just like they wouldn't want their employees drunk at work.
>inb4 HURR U CAN DO THANGS BETTER WHEN UR HIGH!
>>74168302
I got a free can of dope at the dispensary, it was fucking awesome.
So great, because it kept the money out of the hands of all the squares who fought weed. And those motherfuckers can't go broke and have to move out of state too soon.
>>74168761
of course you can, it is stoners knowledge and logic that everything is better then.

You need to re-read my post.
Most employers have a zero tolerance policy in effect - i.e. they don't want their employees to be able to pass a drug test in the case of accident/injury.
So instead of spouting off hyperbole and calling me a retard answer my question
How has the legalization of marijuana affected the unemployment rate?

accident. :DDD

>>74168761
I smoke and I have a good job, but I only smoke on the weekends or at a time where I know it won't affect me at my workplace. You can be just as responsible with cannabis as you can be with alcohol.
>>74168850
Good question, not sure. I've been driving while on weed for a few years but never really had any issues for a cop to pull me over. Cops will only pull you over if you're doing something illegal or appear suspicious like swerving on the road while drunk.

>>74166002
News flash, retard: anyone who has ever wanted to smoke weed already smoked it, the money just went into the wrong hands. It's the easiest to get drug and legalizing it won't magically create a big explosion in the number of stoners.
>>74168977
People are smoking it anyways, so no, it makes no difference. People who smoke it despite putting their job at risk are going to continue to and people who don't aren't going to start to just because of legalization. RETARD.
>>74168474
I hope Denver gets nuked.
Wish it was legal in my country, so people can just shut the fuck up about it. It's literally smoking just with weed instead of Tobacco. If you want to waste your money and time on it thats fine with me. There's just no need for people to be thrown into jail for it, alcoholics aren't thrown into jail.
>>74167098
You're such a fucking faggot talking out your ass. Legal weed is often double the price of black market in colorado. Ask me how I know.
>>74169057
here you get swiped and loose your license. it's very hard to get it back (toally sober for one year or so) and extremely expensive.
>>74168586
Fuck you, you dirty spic faggot. I've known so many Mexicans in my life. You're all pusssies. I'm not even a little afraid of you subhuman fucks.
>>74169147
>>74169160
Let's intensify the legal repercussions, then.
How about making a drug test every three months (and immediate layoff in case of THC positive) mandatory for every employer across the US and EU?
>>74169057
As did I when I used to smoke, however, that was over a decade ago.
I know people to this day who still can't hold down a job because they smoke constantly and come into work stoned. In the current scene of the pot smoker the majority of people don't have the gumption and responsibility to be able to handle immediate legalization.
More people would be coming to work stoned and it would be very difficult to test for that/detect it because of the lack of a reliable and quick test method unlike alcohol consumption at work. This is what keeps most employers from lifting any type of zero tolerance policy as keeping it in effect protects them from any liability if their employee is found to be under the influence of drugs/alcohol while under their employment.
>>74169160
Your mind is so warped and burnt out that there is no reasoning with you.
You're part of the problem bro, not part of the solution. Fuck off and go watch more CustomGrow videos like the filthy degenerate you are.
If more "stoners" were like >>74169057 then perhaps the road to legalization wouldn't be so rocky and full of obstacles but you exist and your existence is an impedance towards that end.

This guy already did the definitive breakdown on why you're dumb:
>>74168854
>>74169293
Why would they test you for something that's legal? THC stays in the body for weeks after consumption, being positive on the test wouldn't mean the person is under the influence at that given time.

I'm certainly not Mr. Amazing, but my work (or my wife's) hasn't suffered, and my wife and I still are active in our hobbies and social life. I guess if you smoke all day, it could derail your life, but it literally makes no difference in mine except it makes tv shows a little funnier, foods a bit tastier, and sex feels a little more intimate.

Underrated post
Weed intoxication is weak, if you're a retard stoner chances are you were a retard before.
What many never realize is that the smart and decent people who smoke manage to avoid ever having anyone find out. So they lead good healthy lives and smoke weed, but as its viewed negatively, anyone with half a brain cell one can avoid being caught quite easily.
>>74169611
This has always been my issue with the rules regarding it. Even after you're no longer under its influence you can still be punished after the fact weeks later from a simple urine test. Even if you were like me and responsibly using it at your own home where your employer has no jurisdiction over(or anyone else for that matter, its your domain) and coming to work the next day while not on it, an employer can still fire you.
There needs to be a distinction like people drinking at home but not drinking at work. But that's easier said than done. This whole employer restriction thing is a big can of worms that most marijuana users fail to consider. I'm lucky that my workplace does not demand periodic drug screenings, they'll only demand a drug test if you're under suspicion(like when a workplace accident occurs). Others are not so lucky.

We already voted. And then they tried to repeal it and we voted it back in again and voted out the people who tried to repeal it.
So go to Kansas or Nebraska or New Mexico or Wyoming or Arizona or Utah or even Okla-fucking-homa if you don't like weed.
But don't come to Colorado. We're the weed state. And we're full, fuck off.

How about it's real simple, you fire shitty employees even if they're sober, and you don't fire good employees, even if they're stoned.
Is that simple enough or should I take a crack at dumbing it down more for people?

DUI - driving under the influence. It's not restricted to alcohol, sooooo... Also, don't tell me most people don't drive like shit when stoned. I spent a few years doing some stuff, and rode with probably near 50 different people when they were stoned, and while they may not speed or drive intentionally recklessly, alot of them DO miss things. Like not noticing stop signs, stopping then going at red lights as if they were stop signs, leaving the car in drive then getting out, etc. These are just a few examples I've seen multiple times from a handful of people

I've tasted ciggarrettes and alcohol and I'm not longer using them because they bore me as fuck.
tobacco is nothing more than a flavoured smoke in your mouth, boring as fuck.
alcohol and beer is nothing more than becomming dizzy and losing the fear of socializing and doing dumb shit.
wow, so scary.
It's been proven that substances don't produce adiction but is rather shitty human trash who get addicted because they're shitty human trash anyway.

The epidemic that the USA is now witnessing is due to the heavy marketing of opioid pain medication as "non-addicting" years back, which caused many middle-class people to get addicted and eventually switch over to the cheaper, more intense high that heroin provides.

Each employer gets to set their own drug policies, and there's a thing called "performance review." People who are fucking up in the workplace get the opportunity to find a new job. Whether they use cannabis or not is unrelated.
Employers have long known that some of their best employees are the ones that can handle their intoxicants, be they alcohol or caffeine or THC or whatever. Testing is a forced activity by insurance companies, which is based pretty much entirely upon right wing religious fascist "feelings" and not any science, statistics or reality.
Your post is blanket fascism and nothing less. I could just as easily decide that everyone needs to be genetically tested for German ancestry. Any who test positive need to be executed to cleanse the gene pool, because Auschwitz. We can't risk having that sort of contamination in the human gene pool anymore because they are all mentally damaged at the genetic level.
It's just making you phenomenally butthurt that every day the proof keeps piling up that prohibition is a thousand times more damaging to society than people living their own lives. Every single country and state that legalizes just keeps rubbing your face in your own shitpile of stupid.

Recently did a small report about this;
Essentially it's had the same effect that Portugal's decriminalization has had except just in terms of Cannabis. Both the Colorado Dept of Health and federal HHS noted a significant decrease in youth usage (especially in comparison to other states), there's a decent amount of general savings from reduced enforcement and then theres the added tax and tourism revenue, and use in general has been declining since 2012.
There's also probably a really strong case in terms of job creation as well, with more dispensaries than there are Starbucks already you can imagine how fast this industry is growing.
there have been downsides such as metropolitan areas like Denver seeing a significant increase in homeless populations, but it's not because they're smoking themselves homeless like a crackhead though.
So largely it's been good. People aren't being harassed by law enforcement for choosing to do something to themselves so I view that as a big win for civil liberty too. All that's really left to do is see the long term results.
Also I would provide sources but I'm on my phone
