JUST IN - U.S. drug control agency will move to reclassify marijuana as a less dangerous “Schedule III” drug.
Recreational is on the ballot this Nov. In my State. This cant hirt its chances for sure!
Congratulations on getting that on your ballot! That is probably a huge stress reliever.
If it passes. Fingers crossed
I’m sure it will. It’ll definitely boost tourism, from the surrounding states. I’ll get there someday. I’ve never been.
Hopefully this will get done and they learn the millions of people it has helped ease many different health problems
Awesome! WhaT state do you call home in?
We went legal in 2018, now days if ya like growing you going to have lots, hard to get rid of, cause everyone that smokes pretty much grows, trading baggies does not lessen the stash, not complaining just saying, hash has become my stash reduction.
Florida.
Me too @Audiofreak, on the left coast. I’m hoping it passes. Anybody can carry a concealed firearm but you still can’t smoke weed. Go figure…
I move to reclassify cannabis as tomatoes
Interesting to see cannabis put into the same category as testosterone.
Would be even cooler if it wasn’t happening with the current… how can I say this… hm… oh never mind.
Thanks for sharing @Covertgrower
@Skydiver
Do you think if we reclassified tomatoes as cannabis we’d have better tomatoes? LOL I do think there would be many more options.
Fingers crossed my brother’s…
That’s great news.I’ve been waiting to hear this.
Sorry guys, but this is very bad for us. This opens the door for big pharma. They will immediately lobby the gov (buy the rules they want) and personal cultivation will be hammered.
Big pharma will produce studies with whatever results they want and paid for politicians will tow the line. It wouldn’t surprise me if even states with current recreational legality back track those laws. Disguised as safety.
Any time big pharma or big tabacco get involved… we get screwed.
On the surface it seems like a step in the right direction… I believe it’s all just smoke and mirrors.
If Florida passes, I’ll move there ASAP!
Pretty much. At least I believe that’s how a lot of people feel about it. It’s also being used to wrangle some votes. We will see what happens.
I think we’ve all been raised to expect gov deception on some level.
You are preaching the gospel my friend. I hope for no shenanigans, but this is what pharma, anheiser bush, Phillips morris, and Amazon wanted. And Monsanto/bayer are giddy for GM seed stranglehold in us.
Delisting cannabis, it would have been the best outcome. Biden was the only dem not running on a federal legalization platform. So this is a big step for him, a leopard can change its spots. I am optimistically hoping for a good outcome.
Quietly making sure all my seeds I need are in the stash fridge just incase my gut feeling is correct.
Sorry to rope you in, @Spudgunner, but I cannot help think about the last thread we hit upon this topic. Your closing comment has been on my mind. That Canada and the rest of the growing world won’t be subject to US laws. It was an excellent point. Upon months of simmering, I think the 80s and 90s proved that the US loves influencing world drug policies thru nato, aid stipulations, and big business. Ask tic toc how they feel about us influence to business right now; forcing them to sale to us investors or be banned. Just think if it was cannabis instead of tic toc. Bad example, but it makes the point.
They also love influencing the world thru your military power since the end of WWII, and look where that’s gotten you!
The answer is more cannabis for sure. That’s all I know. Glad it’s not my job to figure it all out. Ha
And all levels @Low we living it now!!!
