    Biden is going to handle this like the Covid checks. Make a big promise hinging on the election and then under deliver. Then waste a couple years and make some executive memo bullshit that gets tied up in the courts. If he lives that long.

    I want legal weed and more. Just saying Biden isn’t the guy to deliver.

    Making it schedule III still doesn’t help people who are arrested with it for federal drug charges, and makes recreational harder. Like someone in the article said, this feels like it’s a giveaway to big pharma. It’s not like there are recreational ketamine or testosterone dispensaries.

    Oh well, I’ll just keep doing it illegally, getting more and more used to laws being stupid and overbearing, and hating the government even more.

      If you have the option, maybe look @ moving to a blue state that is doing all it can to keep the crazies at bay and create human-centric societies.
      Personally, it isn’t the most important thing to me, but I did vote for it to be legal and I am proud that I’m aligned with the majority of my neighbors on the issue!

          Yeah, the federal law needs to be fixed.
          In the meantime though, it is pretty unlikely that they would go after anyone.
          Keep on following state / local laws and vote where you can to improve things at a federal level!
          That is my plan anyway.
