Hello, first of all I'd like to say that I really enjoy discussing the politics of marijuana, but I suppose it is impossible to talk even about marijuana, an issue that the right and the left both generally distance themselves from, without getting neck deep in partisan bickering. Which is why I propose we add a section to the politics area known as "the partisan bickering hole" and try to not involve us vs them democrat vs republican lines of thought in the marijuana politics section, but still have a place to go and get all of those angry words out of our systems
The problem with that though is people posting loaded, unfair threads that are obviously partisan biased in the first place, but I suppose it could be moved to "partisan bickering" if enough people want it too be moved.
That brings me to my next point, it's almost like that recent study they did that found that American's think they are better in math than most people in most countries, but are in fact not as good at math as those kids in other countries that don't think highly of their math abilities.
Stoners, like the hippies, feel entitled to a sense of getting shit done even though they get nothing done. People are screaming about how Obama failed them as if there is some huge movement among the people for change in marijuana law, there isn't, the pro life movement has 1000x more organization and political sway than any NORML or whatever else people got going, most dispensaries are just trying to make a buck, are these people even fighting for change in the federal law? No, and there the ones making the money off of it, so where does the marijuana lobby money come from? (nowhere)
There is no weed movement, as far as I'm concerned, outside a couple of festivals in Colorado and California where maybe 2,000 stoners might go find out about the injustice of the law regarding marijuana that they were already fully aware of.
I have a topic for the partisan bickering hole when its up
