Phil Murphy for Marijuana

[Bushmaster]

 Phil Murphy wants to legalize marijuana in New Jersey. We may not have any gun rights but we can all smoke weed.

All I have to say is that he has serious issues!

[Psehunter]

He's smart, you can convince a stoner to do anything like vote for him

[not on the rug]

Probably the only thing sensible that dipshit has going for him.

 

The only downside is that rather than using the money weed will bring in to help defray budget concerns, it will probably line the pockets if the politicians in this corrupt dump of a state

[Wallew]

Legalize weed. Brilliant!!!

 

Then we need to create a whole new segment of government. We need a a director of weed. Then a commissioner of weed. They will need at least like 20-30 assistants each, then there assistants will need assistants. We should only sell it in state run stores like PA sells liquor. That’s at least a few more government employees. Of course they will have to also be unionized because it would only be fair to add them to the already bankrupt state pension system.

 

If we are lucky we will make at least enough profit to cover half of the cost this state cost to regulate marijuana.

 

Don’t worry. As long as Murphy says that” it’s for the children” it will be fast tracked through all votes and approvals.

I would never vote for this idiot but marijuana should be legal, along with all other drugs.

Heroine? Oxycodone? Cocaine?  Guess we need the tax revenue more than we need normal functioning humans.

And being illegal accomplished what exactly?

Murphy plans on requiring all NJ residents to register their guns, take a safety training course before being permitted to purchase any firearm, and tax gun and ammo to fund other things. He is going to win, so, who here is going to go register their guns and take the training course first?

Making something illegal doesn't stop people from doing it. It just creates a black market and multiple levels of crime around it.

I'm far from a Murphy supporter, but this I do support....States that have done this taxed it to help pay off state debt, treat it like alcohol 

 

if not then fully allow it for medical reasons without restrictions, like California......NJ has limits on the medical aspect

And being illegal accomplished what exactly?

A deterrent that prevents the problem we have now from being tremendously larger. No law nets 100 % compliance but if it was legal, just how big of a problem with addiction, and the ills that come with it, do you think we would have? 

 

As for legalizing pot, that's another bad idea. Plenty of problems come along with that for the same reason stated above: it removes the deterrent. More people walking (or driving) around doped up, burnt out and stupid is not a good thing. Of course, politicians and pot heads love the idea. Pot heads, well, that's self-explanatory and politicians love it because they can tax it, and dumb down the population and continue to get them to vote away their prosperity and freedoms... A Liberal/Progressives wet dream.
