    Can’t believe the sentencing for weed is still so strong. Like who gives a fuck, just legalize the shit already. I think that most of us can agree that alcohol has just as much of not more potential for harm than weed does and that’s legal.

      Not only is alcohol legal, it was made legal again after its own failed prohibition.

        Yes, but have you considered that if we legalize weed, Satan might get your kids?

      That’s because Jesus drank wine but did not smoke a joint.

          I agree. Christians should rethink interpretation of that passage.

        Or maybe he did - who knows? I know there’s a burning bush in the Bible - maybe it was a metaphor for smoking that good stuff XD

      Anyone who tries to argue that weed is as or more dangerous that alcohol is not doing so in good faith.
