There is good news and bad news according to my educated prediction. First I will tell you the bad news so then I can tell you the good news so you will have a more positive mood when you leave.

The Bad: I don't think marijuana will be legalized for at least 15 more years. Maybe federal decriminalization(only fines), but I highly doubt that before say around 2017 will we ever achieve legalization of marijuana.

The Good: The good news is that I am very confident and 99.9% sure that marijuana will be legalized for medical use within 10 years if not before or at 2008. Polls overwhelmingly support the legalizations of medical marijuana, and actual marijuana not Marinol. Unfortunately the polls for complete legalization even for small amounts of marijuana is slightly in favor for No, but only slightly. About 38 to 57 I think and rest undecided ,38 for and 57 against. Though I am hundred percent sure it is in the late 30s for and mid late 50s against, I saw the polls but am to lazy to check again. The polls FOR MEDICAL marijuana is about 75% for marijuana for medical use, about 17 or 19 against and rest undecided. If it is legalized, which is almost garunteed in my view (for medical purposes ofcourse) it will probably be between Schedules 3-5. Not that bad. Medical patients get what they need easily and is loosely treated somewhat .

So yeah, thats what I think will happen unless there is some radical event or change. What do you think? Am I about right?

 

Sec

Do you have a split personality?

Just 5 minutes after you posted this thread, you posted in another thread about pleading "guilty or no contest". That post has misspelled words and bad grammar

This post has no misspelled words (that I noticed) and very good sentence structure.

If there are two of you, one of you should get a new identity.

When I see a post by Zubi420, before I open it, I wonder whether I will be able to understand it without reading it over 3 times, or if I will be pleasantly surprised by the content.

Yes, definetly.

One would think that the articulate Zubi420 would not want the immature Zubi420 to discredit his/her rep. and would get a new "handle" or change his/her password to prevent the young one from posting in his/her name. That hasn't happened tho, and for the life of me I can't figure out why.

 

Zubi420

No, sometimes im just lazy and tired, sometimes im not. Usually when i start a thread its of good grammar. When I respond (especially short responses) I just do it fast. Spli personality lol

Zubi420

And guys, about the "stupid pot head" thread, it wsnt a really wat i ment. I just wanted to see the kind of responses all of you would give so I could gather em all up and combine many thoughts into one .

TheUnseenTruth

Interesting, though for further reference it didn't fly very well ; and you made no mention of your little peeople watching experiment in the paragraph. It brought alot of heat to you, did it not?

I feel like a studied rat, or was that Kas ko breathing down my neck?

Anyway, interesting theory on dates and such.I find the 15 year idea odd ; why fifteen years ? If the "polls" are as positive for MedicinalMJ ; and almost as positive for complete legalization ; don't you think change will come a bit swifter?

Actually there is a big difference between 75% agreement and 38% agreement. Latter being only for medicinal use. Some people just arent informed about the safeness and made up bs about marijuana. Though for medical uses, they think that if physicians allow it, it should be allowed, and there shouldnt be restrictions on terminally ill patients who need there medicine. the other 25% are just evangelical republicans lol , but its true . About the 38% who support marijuana fully, it includes us guys, liberals, and moderate-orsemistrong liberals. They think that people should have freedom to do whatever they want, and they probably "know" or think that marijuana is not harmful and just makes you lazy. Some of them might actually know the real truth. But still, as you can see there is a reason why so many people approve of full legalization of mj. Not because they want it themselves,(which I respect), but because they think people should have freedom if it doesnt harm otherrs. Still most are uneducated about it.

It think that we are in the middle of a period of desensitization. There are a ton of factors in legalization. If the government just came on tv and announced that marijuana is now completely legal, that wouldn't change the public's perception of marijuana. Smokers would still be persecuted by society and law enforcement. The effects of one hundred years of false propoganda will not go softly into that good night. Marijuana smokers would still be thought of by square society as stupid, lazy, unreliable and even dangerous. Mainstream media (television, radio, and print) is playing a huge part in desensitizing the public's view on marijuana and reversing the century of lies. As we have been shown in recent elections, it seems that the majority of the "voting" american population tends to be ultra conservative, religous, and easily frightened. For example, look at how the fear of a terrorist attack sways voting, even in towns whose entire population is equal to the number of people working in two New York high-rise buildings. These places wouldn't be in danger even if the war was being fought here on US soil. But these people are scared, and they're going to vote for whatever the right-wing tells them will make them safe. This demographic is the social road-block on the way to legal marijuana. The finacial aspect of the problem lies within the employment that has been created to combat marijuana. There is a large portion of our population who make a living from marijuana being illegal. If marijuana was made legal, all of those people would be out of jobs. There is also great amounts of money being thrown at the government by lobbyists for the tobacco companies, the pharmecuetical (sp?) companies, the alcohol companies, religous organizations, privatized law enforcement agencies, and the list goes on and on and on. These corporations have extremely deep pockets and stand to lose quite a bit of money if marijuana was to become legal. The government is not going to support legislation that favors a group that contributes very little money to them and opposes groups that can single-handedly fund their entire campaigns. Things that I have seen in recent news that points to the possibilty of legalization are the growing popularity of the Medical Marijuana Movement, the attempted decriminalization measure on the ballot in Colorado, and the measure on the ballot in Nevada. Also the measure in California to legalize the production of industrial hemp (which was denied by "The Terminator"). Even though few, if any, of these measures actually get passed, the fact that they are even being voted on is a step in the right direction. Legalization is not going to get any attention if it's not on the ballots and forced into the face of the govenment. Unfortunately, the current state of pursecution that marijuana smokers live with prevents the majority of users from even admitting that they use, let alone publicly supporting legalization.

I know that I've rambled, but I hope that I've made some sense and got you thinking. We're never going to get what we want if the givers don't know that we want it.
