Did it find any LSD-analogues? Asking for a friend...

Four people arrested in connection to OD death of actor.

Good, I guess? How about the thousands of other ODs? Are we looking for all of their killers or only for the killers of famous people?

If only there was some way to not purchase and take illegal drugs that are laced with poison.

None of us are safe.

I've never been pro-heroin legalization, but maybe it should be. I dunno.

Kind of a self-correcting problem.

A lot of parents don't know the difference between CBD and marijuana.

That's not shocking. Most states and the federal government still consider it illegal so why would they be teaching people about it?

Really simplified:

CBD is the medicinal part.

THC is the narcotic.

So if a Cadbury Creme Egg was marijuana, CBD would be the chocolate shell and THC would be the gooey center. The CBD products you sell in stores everywhere are just made out of the chocolate shell.

I've heard people say they still can feel affects, but I wonder if that's just their mind playing tricks on them.

Pretty sure that's more like crack cocaine, but yes.

As a Cadbury Creme Egg fanatic, I agree. Although, the prices on those things are fucking outrageous anymore.

If you buy them by the dozen (at Walmart), you can still pay $.75 each.

That's why I always called bullshit on medical weed. CBD, the medicine part, wasn't in (trace amounts) what they were smoking. If you wanted the medicine, you just buy the oil and use that. Everyone that smoked weed for 'medical reasons' just wanted to get high.

I don't need a medical reason. I think it should be legal because I like freedom and don't need a nanny.

I'm all for freedom, but when I have to pick you up because you can't handle your shit, I'd rather you weren't allowed to go down that road. If my tax dollars weren't going to support people who have ruined their lives, I'd be ok with it. Until then, I'd rather keep it off the shelves. Freedom should include freedom from correcting other peoples' mistakes for them.

I do know that there are studies that clinically prove marijuana inhibits cancer cell growth and improves appetite, which is key for those getting chemo. I do not believe CBD oil has that same effect, but I genuinely do not know.

If you're doing it responsibly and not hurting anyone else, I totally agree.

I know way, way too many people who use marijuana a lot to blanket condemn them or say marijuana will lead to worse drugs or is a life-ruiner.

I'm all for alcohol and marijuana being classified as the same type of substance, but also increasing the fines and penalties for doing things under their influence. This is especially true with the various forms of marijuana that cannot be easily detected by odor and whatnot, like edibles.

I know VERY few people who use weed, who have not also tried, or continue to do, more/harder drugs. I feel like once people cross the line into illegal (used to be) stuff, they figure 'what the hell. What's next?'. So does weed MAKE you try harder? No. Does it open the door to drugs and experimentation? I believe so. Now that it's legal, the line has moved, so will it have the same affect? Not sure yet. Because since it's been legal, I know people who have never done it, have tried it, and nothing else. So. . .

I just don't like the argument of "it should be legal because of freedom" because it costs us too much money. Freedom comes with responsibility, which people just don't have here. When my tax dollars are used to feed/house/treat addicts, I don't want there to be addicts, so, illegal.

I feel like alcohol is step one for most people. Then weed, then other things.

I smoked pot back in the day, but never tried did much harder. I drank cough syrup once, that was gross. I took pain meds one night as I had some left over, that was kinda fun, but also kinda not as my friend and I just got really tired. And, LSD/shrooms. No coke or heroin.

How many tax dollars do you spend on police + jails?
