Marijuana Legalization/Decriminalization Efforts

[Yabby]

I live in MI so i'm really pumped about it being legal here, but then i remember I work for the Feds and I've already been warned that it being legal doesn't mean you can't still be fired for using it.

So that's why ND voter #s are up for young people...

[Roranora]

A lot of the regional news over the past few months had been pretty negative. I see within the past couple weeks it has turned positive, but there is no clear consensus that it will pass.

Yeah the polling data is.. almost non-existent and yet all over the place. I'm the least confident with ND out of today's ballot measures.

MI ought to pass, and the UT/MO medical permissions are just baby steps at best, with the Missouri ballot measures seeming pretty convoluted and spread across three separate propositions.

My boss doesn't check/test but he auto thinks anyone that uses it for anything is a loser. Me? I don't care who uses as long as they aren't a tool.

Speaking of weeeeeeeeed. Went to the doc today about my anxiety. Getting off Paxil by lowering and then leaving it. Have Ativan for emergency situations. Will be switching to Wellbutrin. Pretty excited. Hope it works well.

It looks like there are efforts to decriminalize, but it looks like there is a movement to link marijuana use to mental illness.

Well, good luck with that because no real link exists.

At least... it doesn't exist directly.

[Yabby]

Yea, good luck with that movement. People are already skeptical about any bad press that hits marijuana because of the reefer madness and the massive amount of bullshit that was done in the past. Honestly, if they did find something, I doubt anyone that doesn't already believe marijuana is the devil now, would trust the study.

As long as they can remember where their card is.

New Jersey vote to legalize is coming up next month, popular thinking is that if it looks like they're voting yes New York will try to beat them to it or do so immediately afterwards.
