Tucker Carlson: Marijuana legalization is a socialist conspiracy to dumb down America

[Origanalist]

I only say it because the reefer madness propaghanda has indoctrinated so many people because so many special interests make money off marijuana. Probably the most positive thing I saw it do is when my dad was on chemo therapy he could smoke it and actually eat and enjoy meals, he didn't have to go on a feeding tube.

I have nothing against it, I just get a bit amused when people sing the praises of it while condemning everything else. I have a daughter that does that, not much different than someone who drinks condemning pot smokers.

I don't condemn other stuff, I just speak to my experience and what I have seen of it. I don't mean to even sing it praises, I posted a critical comment on how its bad for people who have addicting personalities, even though I think it could be a much better addiction than even excercise. I have seen people get addicted to excercise and it was bad for their health.

I think pot should be legal along with every other so called drug. To me having to have any type of license or permission to be able to possess it makes it not really legal. So in essence making it so called legal is very much a socialist program.

Fair enough.


She sure is one hot wench, tough to forget.

I have seen people be self destructive with marijuana but those people tend to have addictive personalities who could be self destructive with anything even food, or sky diving, and even than those people would be better off a lot of times smoking something that is known to be not very harmful than drinking or smoking tobacco.

Oh,,that was me..

Depression and suicidal tenancies... Though I stopped trying to kill myself in 1980... and everything else started trying.

You are 100% correct about Coke.. As it matches my real world experience.. and I worked for a couple long term Coke users. I have avoided it personally because I liked the effect too much.. saw the danger..

I have been an occasional Cannabis user since the 70s,, and a regular user for a few years.
and though I may still enjoy an occasional beer... I am no longer drowning my Depression with Alcohol..

It certainly should not be Scheduled 1,, and as a "drug" I consider it between Aspirin and Ginger Root.

Why,,

Phuck the Dumb $#@!..

Cannabis is not an Opioid... and in Every place that cannabis has been legalized so far... Opioid scripts drop,,,deaths drop,, by 25% according to statistics..

It is far healthier pain relief without debilitating side effects.
Came as a surprise to me too.. and cut my daily Aspirin intake to 0.

It is a Gift from God.. Prohibition and Propaganda opposing this gift are Pure Evil.. and the results are easy to see..

Oh Yeah,, Phuck You.. Some of us have been in this fight since the 70s.

You guys need to learn to read. Why do you suppose I split opioids and cannabinoids? I KNOW they aren't the same thing.

What then would cannabinoids and opiates be?

 

[pcosmar]

He may be on to something. Legalization and government involvement aside, Marx once said "Religion is the opiate of the masses."

What then would cannabinoids and opiates be?


You gotta stay aware of what's going on. Doping yourself up doesn't help.

Lets try that with the WHOLE STUPID quote then.

What would they be??

and quoting Marx for effect.

How about you stop being such a Phucking DOPE.
Cannabis is a Gift from God with still unknown potential.. It is food, Medicine , Clothing and had industrial applications..

It is Beneficial for Human Consumption. and 100% Non Toxic.

And is proven to be beneficial for the Brain.. you dope.

If you want to believe that, fine.

Cannabis stimulates the regeneration and growth of new brain cells, so whatever your goal is it sounds like you should probably smoke more weed.

I mean, any time the body takes damage it tries to repair itself, or limit the damage.. You're probably not wrong, in a way.

Cannabis doesn't damage the brain, science has found it is the opposite: a neuroprotectant.

Alcohol damages the brain.

Lemme guess.. you drink?

 

[pcosmar]

If you want to believe that, fine.

Science is proving it with every test.

As far as a "drug" it is about the same level as Caffeine.

No. I had a father who did. I determined that I wasn't going to be the guy who focused on vices to avoid responsibilities.

Quoting Marx as an argument ,,, a few drinks too many.

 

[pcosmar]

It has nothing to do with avoiding responsibilities.

Why do People who are Totally Ignorant of a Subject insist on arguing it?

if you can't blame alcohol,, what do you blame your utter stupidity on?

 

[dannno]

Do you realize that alcohol and cannabis have completely different, almost polar opposite effects on people?

I'm not saying you have to do it, I'm just saying you should probably be less judgmental of those who do.

Toking herb doesn't make you stupid, it makes you more open minded, creative and better able to solve problems. It increases your body's ability to experience various sensational inputs.

Drinking doesn't make you more open minded, it can make you more sociable, though. I enjoy alcohol on occasion, usually at night. In moderation. I don't use it to avoid responsibilities. That is what alcoholics do.. people who have to drink all day, or when they drink they have to drink to excess. Alchohol is an intoxicant and should be treated as such. However it moderation it can also have longterm health benefits. Cannabis is not an intoxicant, because, as pcosmar likes to say, it is not toxic to the body in any way, shape or form.

Look. I see this is a touchy subject for you. We can at least agree that government shouldn't ban the stuff.

Should have never... The entirety of Laws was based in Lies..

The truth is so far opposite,, and should be vigorously defended.

Negativity toward use does nothing to heal those most in need. and there are many.

yeah,, a little touchy.
