Legalize it federally. No fucking reason alcohol and cigarettes should be legal while weed isnt

Based on how much you see and smell it, you'd think it was legal already. Might as well make it official.

Might be news if someone came out against it.

I don’t want anyone to go to jail for having it, selling it, or using it, especially considering how long weed arrests have been used as a cudgel against minority communities but I’m gonna be honest with y’all, I’ll be damned if I don’t absolutely hate the smell of it and wish people would just switch to edibles. Weed had to be one of the most unpleasant smells and it just permeates a ten foot radius around any smoker.

Really think it’s a worse smell than nicotine cigarettes? I think both are awful. But yes, long overdue to legalize at the state and federal level. No chance it’s worse than nicotine or alcohol.

Would this still take 5 years to implement like gambling?

Man, this doesn’t even need an editorial. It’s simple: legalize marijuana, tax it, sell it via licensed businesses with age restrictions, purchase with quantities limited for individual sales. Profit. Forgive, pardon and remove incidents from past criminal activity from an individual’s record. Stop the stigma for use and acknowledge the drug war failed. I’m 41. I’m tired of seeing people hassled, stigmatized for use or past use and want the US to keep studying any potential benefit or harm it may cause.
