Weed legal in NJ

Marujuana should be legal. Anyone that disputes it just has a stick up their ass. And no I don't smoke or use it. Marijuana use is already so wide spread. It has been proven time and time again, that sin crimes just do not work. Whether it is drugs, gambling, alcohol and prostitution. You would be shocked at how many professionals use it to calm them down after a long day at work. People would rather smoke pot than take prescriptive medicine for pain. Hall85 already talked about the benefits of taking away money from the drug cartels. And a true discussion about legalizing all drugs needs to be talked about. Without the need for a huge law enforcement in drug enforcement, lots of money can be saved and be diverted to treatment and educational needs.Also, the medicinal uses of mushrooms and LSD are now being revealed as a real help for patients with dementia.
With regard to DWI, if a person's eyes are glassy and their speech is impaired, that should be enough for a field sobriety test. If the person fails the field sobriety test, DWI can be sustained just by those observations which would be captured hopefully on a body cam. A blood test shows active metabolites in the system for up to 6 hours. Will it be more difficult to prove? yes. But it really is nothing new than what is going on now.
However, I have to take a closer look at this bill. I have been hearing some thing with regards to underage and the restrictions on law enforcement that may have gone too far.

I think many would agree with you. The "will of the people" was for legalization. This bill, however, threatens POLICE with prosecution for charging those who are underage by using the telltale signs of usage (of drugs and alcohol), and prevents them from contacting parents in cases where they find an open container or paraphernalia.
Typical NJ. Garner support for one thing, take almost 3 years to get it done, then ram this social justice bullshit through at the 11th hour in the run up to Murphy's re-election run.
Some people are seriously concerned about the impact it will have on global warming. You're not going to believe this but smoking one joint is worse for the environment than eating 1 hamburger. Complete insanity for some.

Global warming is the next boogeyman the elite will use to control the population. Or is it the "climate crisis" now? LOL.

depends are we talking 5 guys or white castle? or the leather pucks spk eats at smashburger?
No. The globe is warming.
Texas being cold today is not contradictory to that statement.
The earth was once covered with ice. In order for the ice to melt the globe had to warm. Most likely the globe was warming before any fossil fuels were being used. To think we’re just going to stop the globe from warming now that it’s at an ideal temperature for our lives is crazy in my opinion.
Yep. The belief that we can do anything about global warming is the height of human arrogance.
The view that we can treat the planet however we want with no repercussions whatsoever is a far more arrogant take.
The hypocrisy of legalizing marijuana, private jets, cigarettes, and the million other things while calling for taking better care of the planet is the most absurd thing going. I’m all for taking better care of the planet but don’t have a group of people tell me what I’m doing wrong while that group is doing ten times worse than I am.
I do believe we have the ability to slow down the rate of warming.
As with most things, I say err on the side of caution.
The comedy is we’re talking about this in a legalizing marijuana in NJ thread. There is no way, shape, or form that legalizing marijuana in NJ and how it will be grown in NJ will help the planet. If you care about the planet and limiting the impact this should be a travesty in your eyes.
I can't also want them to establish more energy efficient ways to grow it?
Actually would be very beneficial if that is something they figure out since vertical farming is really still in it's infancy as well.
Just my opinion. The most basic way to grow the plant is best. Anything created by man is probably worse than natures way. I’m not one who goes crazy on these things but I find it funny that my views like growing it the way nature intended is probably better for the plant than what climate change proponents want.
this couldnt be more false ask any farmer in history. mans way has grown crops a whole lot better
Man just has more disease than any time in history too. The soil isn’t as good and the vitamins and minerals in the crops are fewer than they used to be.

Hard disagree with that. You think we can feed hundreds of millions of people in this country without the advancements from man?
I think we would have a lot more farmers and less unemployment that’s for sure. But I guess you’re not overly concerned with the destruction of the earths soil and maybe that impact on global warming.
Can Soil Help Combat Climate Change?
Soil naturally absorbs a huge amount of carbon. Some scientists think we can use it to our advantage in the fight against global warming.

Yeah... if only humans would die at 40 like they did hundreds of years ago. Then we could have more nutrient dense foods.
If we solve a food shortage problem with better farming methods, that's good. If those farming methods create issues with soil, I am all for figuring out methods which will make the soil more nutrient dense.
I am pro-advancement.
That’s cool. So am I. But I’m not saying save the earth, limit our impact, and praising mans advancement in farming at the same time. They kind of don’t go together if you follow the science.
this could be said since the beginning of time. "advanced" farming techniques have been going on since man discovered maize. probably what got us this far. now we have the ability to figure out how to help the soil too
I won't disagree, but I'll come full circle here, the techniques that will be used to grow marijuana in NJ will be another obstacle for those extremely passionate about climate change and limiting our damage to the environment. I really don't think that is debatable.
It's funny how recreational marijuana is legal in NJ, but you can't actually buy it. At least, that's how I know things work other there. My friend who lives in NJ would always see his family in Canada and buy seeds from there and bring them back to NJ and grow them himself. It's kind of a pain in the ass that he always has to travel back and forth to get the seeds. Anyways, he's actually quite happy with those he buys from https://farmerslabseeds.com/marijuana-seeds-quebec/buy-cannabis-seeds-montreal-qc/. I don't know if this is legal, like traveling with cannabis seeds from Canada to America? Do any of you know cause I'm kinda scared for him doing all this, ha-ha!
