I’m one of the four in ten I guess that isn’t surprised, just disappointed.
Surprised is the wrong word. Angry is the right word.
It was legalized federally in Canada in 2018, so it’ll probably be around 2028 when it’s legalized federally in the US, just like it took a decade for the US to legalize gay marriage after Canada did it.
Lets see how long we’ll get to keep it with a MAGA SCOTUS majority. Kim Davis already started the process to get it up to them and Thomas will definitely be a no.
How would SCOTUS even be able to rule that marijuana has to be illegal, when Congress repealed the law making it illegal? That is not how law works.
Different culture. Canada is far more liberal than the United States.
But with the ongoing migration crisis and continuing stupidity of Trudeau administration, I’m afraid that the momentum gained for the Canadian right to eventually become mainstream.
Don’t worry, when we eventually get basic human needs down such as universal healthcare and other social welfare, worker’s rights, and liveable non-car dependent infrastructure, I’m sure everyone will start moving to the US instead of Canada and you’ll be saved. I give it… a few decades, when the climate catastrophe starts becoming apparent.
There is absolutely zero reason to think that cannabis makes you more “woke”.
I have met no shortage of shitty assholes who smoke weed.
It doesn’t make you an asshole either, mind you, but don’t kid yourself into thinking weed makes you a better person. The people you smoke weed with are good people, not because they smoke weed, but because you don’t hang out with shitty people regardless of context.
Kamela is a prosecutor that loves private profit prisons. She aint going to legalize shit.
So beyond her being a prosecutor and a kinda hardline AG, but where does accusation of the love of private prisons come from?
I’d be interested to see a map showing the states where weed is illegal, crossed with one showing where child marriage is legal.
