This is probably one of the best ways to fight against the American opioids addiction crisis and long overdue.
Big pharma and big alcohol will try to sabotage it as they have done before.

Great, with the out of control crime, NYC will have the Walking Dead roam the cities. Best of luck to them.
And the exodus continues….

Marijuana is now legal or decriminalized in far more US states than illegal. This trend will only continue. Even in Texas and Florida. Texan voters have already backed repealing laws. That’s Democracy at work.
Exodus? Are they all coming to Japan?

Even former POTUS Clinton smoked, but ‘didn’t inhale’. Gotta love them low life politicians.

Yeah, that is not how that works. The words of someone who learned about pot by watching "refer madness."

So did Prez. Obama. And W has two DUIs in his life story. Which is worse, or dumber?
It's legal in all of Canada. I smoked it there but there are restrictions and responsibilities that come with it.
Just like hemp farming is revitalizing the Native Canadian/First Nations reserves, this should boost the income of those Iroquois reservations in New York State as well. Gas, food, gambling, sundries, tobacco and now marijuana. And when you shop at a Native reservation, you pay no tax! The Native/'Red' folks get it all, the state or province doesn't get DIDDLEY.
