Legalizing Grass

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer really likes to talk about marijuana.

Schumer has been making waves on cannabis policy since he first introduced a bill to legalize marijuana in April 2018. It was part of his pitch for voting Democrat in the 2020 election, and now — with the majority in hand — he is putting together new federal marijuana reform legislation with Sens. Cory Booker (D-N.J.) and Ron Wyden (D-Ore.).

More than 40 percent of Americans now live in states that have embraced full legalization.

President Joe Biden has been a conspicuous outlier among Democrats when it comes to supporting marijuana legalization. But Schumer said Biden’s reticence won’t deter the Senate from taking aggressive action to loosen federal restrictions.

“I want to make my arguments to him, as many other advocates will,” Schumer said in an interview with POLITICO this week. “But at some point we're going to move forward, period.“  SOURCE:  POLITICO

PERSONALLY, I want the damn stuff legalized and I want all the people currently in jail for selling or buying marijuana to be immediately released.

AND, I don't give a damn if it leads to stronger stuff because that is the responsibility of the individual NOT THE GOVERNMENT.

PUFF the Magic Dragon 1965 released...

LIVE in 1986

Twenty One years later...

The lyrics of this song can be easily found on the Internet and if you were to do that like I just did and read them thoroughly and digest their meaning as you do, it will be obvious to you that the song is about SMOKING WEED...  and, as one gets older one no longer needs to SMOKE WEED...  one out grows youthful thoughts as one GETS OLDER...

Of course, I still know people who in their 70's and 80's are still SMOKING WEED because of the relaxing feeling it gives them...

BUT, the fact remains that a majority of people AGE OUT of younger thoughts, feelings, attitudes, and actions as they grow old...  sometimes, this transition is difficult and sometimes it is relatively easy...  but, the transition happens nonetheless.

GROWING OLD IS SAD...
