It's illegal so that more people want it.

munki · 05-26-2005, 09:46 AM

Mostly taxation reasons whenever me and the homies get into this debate.

It's a very versatile plant, that will grow almost anywhere, with minimal effort, sure if you want the dank you gotta groom it and baby it, but just trying to get a crop, you could drop a see anywhere. How do you tax a weed? Literally???

It is slowly making its way back into legality though.

Bravo to every 215 card holder in cali. I had the wonderful experience of being with a friend in court a few months back for traffic school. He busts out a sack during break, and rolls up a canseco size joint... and to my shock starts puffin right in front of the bailiff. The next few minutes were the best of my life as I watched them take his sack, cuff him, yell and scream a bit, and then let him go as he shows them his 215 card allowing him to posess and use his medicine as prescribed by a doctor.

Good times

jacked · 05-26-2005, 09:52 AM

cause they can't tax it, they make more money off the drug dealers and all the citizens of this country who are arrested every year for possesion.

in new jersey for possesion under 50 grams minimum fine is $1000 and 6 months - 1 year of probation

whoah whoah, please clarify yourself you said "possession under 50 grams" so what you are saying is if i have 10 grams or 40 grams it makes no difference i am paying $1000 and serving at least 6 months?

you can have 1/2 a gram and your getting arrested and charged with the exact same thing if you had 28 grams on you

1st offense $100 fine no jail time or probation
2nd offense $200 fine no jail time or probation
three or more offense and it's $250 fine and 15 days in prison

VirtuMike · 05-26-2005, 10:17 AM

It's illegal because Jesus said it was evil.

MarkTiarra · 05-26-2005, 10:51 AM

I don't smoke but I always assumed that the reason it's illegal here is that too much money is being made under the table by those who could make it legal. If it's not something to do with money it doesn't make sense that it's illegal and alcohol is not.

Marijuana is Schedule I and Cocaine is Schedule II

DEA is on both schedules.

topbizucksMark · 05-26-2005, 12:23 PM

Its illegal because our government is run by a bunch of bigots.

All of Americas drug prohibition has been based on racism. when marijuana crazed mexicans began rapping our women, the plant was made illegal.

The US also could not stand by and watch brown people become rich that would be a sin

eroswebmaster · 05-26-2005, 12:32 PM

check out http://www.norml.com and find your state and applicable laws.
It's not 100% illegal in every state.

escorpio · 05-26-2005, 12:36 PM

it's illegal cuz george bush is like a total nazi, dude

cigs are legal & they contain POSION that kills millions every year, and yet, weed is still illegal.

it started out as a thinly veiled racist policy to attempt to push immigrant mexicans back to their own country. since then the government has demonized, mis characterized, and downright lied to the public every chance they get. giving up now would be admitting a wrong, and they wouldn't want that now would they?

Anyway, is wicked in Netherlands (I live in NL) - went to Amsterdam today :D

sextoyking · 05-26-2005, 02:34 PM

It's because drug companies can't make money off of it right now. Taxation would be a good thing...

aico · 05-26-2005, 02:56 PM

Because it is so easy to grow that our money hungry Gov't wouldn't make money off of it because anyone who smokes it, would probably grow their own shit, and lots of it.

The "Anointed Ones" Covered themselves in Hemp Oil.

It is Illegal, because it Opens Gateways and many levels of conciousness.

WHO wants to argue about HEARST CATSLE and the real reason why William Randolf Hearst had several paganistic Actors and Actresses visite the Hearst Castle In San Simione California.

Besides the Native American Indians were growing weed in North America long befor it was even the United States.

Because Tobacco is harder to grow, needs to be cured, and a bunch of other shit that the average everyday joe can't do for himself, which lets the Gov't control it and make money.

Weed just head out to Home Depot, You can do it, and they can help.

In that case, why is it so illegal in Mexico, and pretty much everywhere else in the world, except holland...

The Puritans LEFT England because they didn't like how "loose" they were... The Roots of America's uptight attitude is a little thing known as the Bible.
