Well there it is, folks.
If this doesn’t push things over the finish line I just don’t know what will.

And here in a few moments we’ll hear how that’s bad or not a new idea or should have happened earlier from a bunch of cynical apolitical folks that don’t realize if the whole country would actually get off their asses and vote this could have been done a decade sooner if not earlier. If you think voting doesn’t matter, then why do you think Republicans are constantly doing everything they can to keep people from voting? Because voting is our number one power as citizens in a democracy, of course we have a representative democracy, but if voting didn’t matter, there wouldn’t be billions of dollars spent influencing how people vote and everyone would be registered by default.

It’s a bit tone deaf that she’s doing it to appeal to black men.
Well I hope she gets voted in and makes good on her promise. I’m about tired of feeling like a criminal for someone else’s stupid laws.

I don’t believe it until I see it, I feel like this is another ploy for votes and once she’s elected marijuana legalization will be an after thought.

legalize it…don’t criticize it!
i do not think anyone ever went out, got real fucking high on weed, then went home and beat their spouse. they may have said “i’m really hungry” and then went to watch tv though.
but if you replace “weed” with “booze” i would not support that statement.

Hasn’t every president since Obama promised this?

This will be an excellent economic boom. Ontario did two billion dollars worth of sales in one year. Legalization in USA will be 10 times that.

At this time, Trump is still saying that we should learn from China to ban cannabis.

New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy campaigned partially on this. It then went up on a constitutional ballot in the state. The sheer amount of comments on his Instagram saying “you’re the governor why don’t you do something about it?” Made me want to cry

Not sure why this wasn’t part of her campaign sooner, not when there is only 3 weeks left until the election…

Yea this will sway a lot of voters thats what happen in NJ the opposition stated they would only decriminalize it instead of legalize it and thats what costed them the election instead of just jumping on the bandwagon.

Canada went legal country wide over 6 years ago and not much has changed except for the windfall of taxes and the thousands of jobs for budtenders. It’s awesome. I can fly from province to province as long as I have under 30 grams.
