Legalizing Marijuana in Massachusetts

from ssgmarkcr

   I ran across this court judgment today regarding the decriminalization of marijuana at the state level.  It seemed particularly relevant in light of Massachusetts being a state that has gotten a grade of A- from the Law Center to Prevent Gun Violence.  And this is something to be expected if recreational marijuana is going to be legalized. 

    It seems as if Massachusetts did a pretty good job of writing their law to insure that past offenses wouldn't be held against citizens for past offenses.

  1. This all this nation needs. Another state full of pot heads. Its no wonder this country is seeing a downfall. We don't need to legalize any more mind altering drugs. I don't care if it is seen as a loosing war, don't stop fighting it. Don't give in or it will just get much worse. Obviously.

  2. How many people have died from misusing pot? How many people have died from misusing guns? SS loves to use these non-comparisons to make his false points.

  3. Many people have died from using pot. Many people have died at the hands of pot users. Pot leads to harder drugs. More people die from the harder drugs. Just like beer leads to harder alcohol.

    Pot users are less productive. Pot users costs society more money. Pot users are in the same catagory as alcoholics. Staying stoned is the same as staying drunk. Pot heads kill from being mentally impaired just like a drunk driver.

    We have all the stats and facts to prove this. We dont need anymore mind altering drugs in this country.
