Carlos Santans wants Pres to legalize pot

[RobTheDrummer]

I think more people would do it if it were legalized. Simply being legal would create more users, and also being on store shelves would create more users.

it's not legal now and i think i know more people that do smoke it than don't. i'm not saying docters should be tokin' up. but there is an easy way around that.


anyone here have to pee in a cup at work? i've had to take drug tests for jobs before. i'm sure some people here have.


just because it's legal on a federal level dosn't mean states would legalize it. likewise, just because it's legal dosn't mean companies would quit drug testing their employees.


i just want people to be respected enough to make their own decisions about drugs. you show me a stoner sitting at home watching full house and i'll show you a lazy prick staying out of trouble.

I've talked to a few people about this and they came up with the point that legalizing it may not mean they will make a profit from it. I mean there's many people who grow their own now, if it's legalized others might learn how to grow and "harvest" it, and seeds are certainly a lot cheaper than pre-rolled cigs/joints.


There's a penn and teller Bullsh*t show that had a little thing about weed. i guess in the 70's (or earlier) they had a program where the federal government would grow it for medical purposes. They had a good bit of people, maybe 20 or more before it was shut down. There's about 7 left and these people are still and will still get medical weed, grown, rolled and shipped to their door from the federal government.

Also states that legalize medical use have to hide their plants from the Federal Government, since they can get "shut down" by them as the Fed still sees it as illegal.

Personally I don't care either way, as I don't smoke, but there are certainly worse things people can get into than weed.
