Bill that would decriminalize marijuana at federal level passes House vote

A divided U.S. House committee approved a proposal Wednesday to decriminalize and tax marijuana at the federal level. The House Judiciary Committee approved the proposal 24-10 after more than two hours of debate. It would reverse a longstanding federal prohibition by removing marijuana from the Controlled Substances Act, while allowing states to set their own rules on pot.

A Guide to Being a Licensed Marijuana Producer (w/ Justin Dhaliwal)

The legalization of marijuana is just around the corner.

The market has been projected to be worth more than $10 billion. For some, that suggests the marijuana industry is going to be a gold rush – that is until you look inside.

It is a labyrinth of rules, regulations, background checks, banks that won’t give you an account, a reliance on investors and there are no guarantees you’ll get a license. The government won’t be propping you up; in fact it will be watching you very closely to ensure your products meet exacting standards and that everything you do conforms to the law.

There are, however, entrepreneurs who think it’s worth the risk. And risk is the operative word. Just because marijuana and the production of it will become legal in Canada, it doesn’t mean it’s legal anywhere else except Uruguay. The United States has already stated that if you work in or invest in marijuana you could be banned from entry to the US for life.

We invited medical marijuana entrepreneur Justin Dhaliwal to join us for a Conversation That Matters about the process, the risks and the benefits of obtaining a license to produce cannabis.

Simon Fraser University’s Centre for Dialogue presents Conversations That Matter. Join veteran Broadcaster Stuart McNish each week for an important and engaging Conversation about the issues shaping our future.

Chris Christie To Overturn Marijuana Legalization

Chris Christie’s on the warpath against pot. He appears to think hating marijuana more than other GOP candidates is his ticket to the nomination. He is likely incorrect. Cenk Uygur, host of The Young Turks, breaks it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.

“AT A TOWN Hall meeting in New Hampshire last night, Republican presidential candidate Chris Christie had a message for recreational marijuana users: enjoy it while it lasts, kids.

“I believe it should still be illegal,” he said. “If you’re getting high in Colorado today, enjoy it until January 2017, because I will enforce the federal laws against marijuana as President of the United States.””*

The Facts About Marijuana

Incase you didn’t know,
society has brainwashed all of you
into thinking Marijuana is a drug, when it’s not.
Yes, it alters you.
No, it’s not a drug.
Loratab, Xanax, Soma’s, Aspirin, Tylenol, those are drugs,
and drugs can KILL you.
If you take more then 10 Tylenol, you are a goner.
If you take more then 5 loratab, your a dumbass
AND a goner.
Incase you havn’t noticed, Marijuana GROWS.
Nothing is DONE to it.
It simply grows, just like a tomato, and an apple.
It grows.
Have you ever heard of someone overdosing on it?
No?
I didn’t think so.
Let me, also, give you the scientific comparison
of Marijuana to other things.
Marijuana compared to a beer:
One beer is equal to 35 grams smoked of Indica, or “Chronic” or “Funk” or “Kush” whatever you want to call it. 68 Grams of Sativa, or “regs” or “reggie” or “schwagg”.
You can go research that if you want too,
because I have multiple times.
Marijuana is also not addicting at all,
it’s more than 100 times healthier than a beer.
It’s also a lot safer than smoking cigarettes.
Marijuana does nothing harmful to your body,
it’s not like a cigarette.
When you smoke it, nothing sticks to your lungs.
I used to think that Resin did,
but I researched it, and Resin,
or the residue that marijuana smoke leaves behind,
can’t stick to our lungs
because of what they are made of.
It’s not strong enough.
Tar in cigarettes, however, is.
Marijuana isn’t a drug.
If you think it is,
you have successfully been brainwashed
by the government,
congratulations.
