One on the border, and one 90 miles north

Why is the US so retarded when it comes to drugs, especially with soft drugs such as Weed

2019-02-02 19:23:52 UTC  

It's several things

2019-02-02 19:23:57 UTC  

most of the world is, tbh

2019-02-02 19:24:37 UTC  

Which drugs are we talking about, because they have different reasons for the way we treat them

2019-02-02 19:25:37 UTC  

tobacco and alcohol industries lobbied against weed at one point, iirc

2019-02-02 19:25:43 UTC  

didn't' help the image

2019-02-02 19:26:03 UTC  

heck, they probably still do

I see awful studies from both sides of the argument for soft drugs regularly

what's going on here? you guys talkin weed?

2019-02-02 19:27:26 UTC  

No.. we're not talking about chimpanzees

2019-02-02 19:29:38 UTC  

@Fitzydog soft drugs like Weed, which are heavily criminalised in the US... which is baffling

2019-02-02 19:30:03 UTC  

and asian countries will kill you for it

2019-02-02 19:30:07 UTC  

your point?

2019-02-02 19:30:27 UTC  

I'd like to imagine that the US is a more liberal and modern country to the asian ones

2019-02-02 19:30:28 UTC  

according to joe it's a capitalist conspiracy

2019-02-02 19:30:40 UTC  

@Capitán Alatriste Because blacks, the cotton industry, the tobacco industry, and pharmaceutical industry

2019-02-02 19:30:45 UTC  

even in japan and south korea, they don't tolerate that shit

2019-02-02 19:30:54 UTC  

and they are pretty modern

2019-02-02 19:31:03 UTC  

they're pretty conservative too

2019-02-02 19:31:06 UTC  

also criminality depends on state

2019-02-02 19:31:07 UTC  

Oh, and teetotaler busybodies

2019-02-02 19:31:21 UTC  

colorado is fine with the devil's lettuce

2019-02-02 19:31:26 UTC  

utah isn't

2019-02-02 19:31:37 UTC  

and there's a lot of bad science out there when it comes to cannabis

2019-02-02 19:32:43 UTC  

Overall it's a good thing for the world that the US is allowing studies to be done now

2019-02-02 19:32:48 UTC  

or soon

2019-02-02 19:33:07 UTC  

Most of such science has either been debunked or hasn't been proven yet, and remain as mere speculations

2019-02-02 19:33:26 UTC  

drugs are bad

2019-02-02 19:34:39 UTC  

There is a lot of bad science on the pro and con debate tbh

2019-02-02 19:35:02 UTC  

But tbh im fine with it. Americans are banned from canada for traffic violations.

2019-02-02 19:35:57 UTC  
2019-02-02 19:36:01 UTC  

Yep

2019-02-02 19:36:01 UTC  

it's been "debunked" in the sense that most people who can read and understand a scientific paper, and understand certain elements of organic chemical and biological science, will be able to tell you that the research design of a lot of the studies are poor

2019-02-02 19:36:09 UTC  

DUIs will get you banned

2019-02-02 19:36:12 UTC  

fuck the leaves

2019-02-02 19:36:25 UTC  

they're still being circulated and even remade, regularly

2019-02-02 19:36:43 UTC  

there are a lot of interests involved
