So if I get it I won't know what I could do with it when I do?

Is this some kind of zen?

I thought I got it, but now I can't be sure.

let me rephrase...if you dont get it, you know what you can do with it when you DO get it...me being really high and not being able to type probably threw ya off the fact i was telling a certain group of people to take thier views and attitudes and shove them up thier :moon:...sorry for the confusion...:)

That's a bold fucked up thing to say that nobody is going to remember the dudes that fought for you to smoke weed!

what "fight"?
they hid behind sick people as human shields since 215 passed and actively fought against legal recreational use.

with friends like that....

the dudes that fought for you to smoke weed!

bro please....im tired of everyone making these growers out to be some fucking saints. yeah i know alot of really cool people up north that grow. but they aint doing this for me or you or some greater good so that nobody ever needs to go without weed. they are in it for the money. its an easily lifestyle that requires very little work or effort for a pretty good pay off. now i got nothing against people making money. but when they start campaigning against mj legalization so that they can continue to put out as little work as possible and still make a comfy living, i say FUCK EM.

why should their easy life style up in the hills be put on the burden of the everyday citizen? do you think i like living in this urban shithole? of course not. but unfortunatly residing up in the hills isnt a very reliable soure of living and i find it asinine that we should keep marijuana illegal so that the growers up north dont have to face real world scenarios.

yeah industries fail. sorry the logging business went under. sorry that your whole town is based off illegal sale of mj. maybe its time to move on to new places or step up your game and grow more

i cant make decisions for these people. but i will not be suckered into sympathy for them because they choose to live off in their own little paradise....

Common sense that people who's lively hood depends on marijuana's illegality wouldn't want it legal.

I'm curious, have you ever bought seeds, or a bag?

Not much (a),, and ,, Yes just a few times (b).. lol.. (that's the most honest answer) :D

(a) We c0-own an organic seed co. so we usually get seeds sent from fellow breeders to help test for them ,, havent bought a seed pack for 5 years of more :friends:

(b) was buying bags of erbs before the other kids knew what it was,, but that's not the point,, these days we'd sooner support a medi user than a commercial grower 110% ,, that's all we are saying . and dem folks dont want legal nothing,, too many $$$ to loose if we can all grow it at home fro free.


Oh, and if by "drug dealers" you mean people who sell weed ...

.. yeah like cars sales ppl,, they are only as good as the price (deal) and the product (deal) they are selling at that time of year,, otherwise they become useless,, just a bunch of dealers the lots of them.. lol :D

Gone are the days of a 'fair deal' ,, or even an honest one..lol

(please take 5% tongue in cheek) the rest is deadly serious :bandit:

yea and big tobacco buying up land and putting patents on "purple kush" etc....

yea yea people wont end up in jail, but maybe you shouldnt have been speeding down the freeway with a joint smokin and an ounce in the glovebox.

its not a good trade off in my opinion. give control to the government, big pharma, and industry heavyweights like Harborside and Richard Lee.

YOU KNOW HARBORSIDE AND RICHARD LEE ALREADY WANT A MONOPOLY IN OAKLAND...legalization aint about feel-good "lets all grow and be free"..ITS ABOUT MONEY AND BIG BUSINESS TAKING AWAY THE INDIVIDUALS RIGHT TO GROW AND MAKE CASH IN THE BLACK MARKET.

look at the bigger picture....to me, legalization is basically the government and big business saying .."alrite guys, you have had your fun, but now its time for us to get our hands in your 100 billion dollar underground industry, no more power for the people!!"
couldn't have said it better, nothing can be worse than something that is run/controlled by the government.

whats wrong with living in the hills making a living growing? thats the life of paradise...what most of us should dream to achieve. instead you want to kill their economy so they all have to move back to the cities or starve? its not like any of them can suddenly quit growing and find a job up there...ENTIRE CITY ECONOMIES WILL COLLAPSE when the grow money dries up...sounds like you have the haterade...

i hate commercial growers who are out to merely make a profit and operate like gangs so i try not the support them...but regular ol growers like KB and the dozens of other ICmaggers who are happy to give advice and strive to grow good product that they smoke themselves are not "living the easy life"....those guys put in work..shit just setting up my tiny 5k bedroom has been a huge undertaking..how is this "barely working"...i have to make a shitload of sacrifices and put alot energy in to grow good herb...and why should i grow if i cant afford to pay my 2k PGE bill off because mega corps get cheap rates and flood the scene with their cheap unloved garbage...yes 4k a LB is highball...but cant we just settle at 2500 and call it a day...as long as the people can still make reasonable wage off marijuana il entertain those forms of legalization..

the second it becomes your idea of legalization it becomes a "rich get richer while the poor stay poor" kind of scenario. theres only so much adapting you can do before mega warehouses put everyone out of business, then thats hundred thousand more people competing in the job market, and hundred thousand people no longer spending 40-50k a year in business costs, bills, and luxury goods stimulating local economies....

not from what ive seen...

Great!

That takes a lot of stress off of my shoulders.

I was worried that wanting people out of prison wasn't prohibition.

I also thought hemp shouldn't be classified as an intoxicant.

I really don't get it... and that's okay!!

:whee:

That's a bold fucked up thing to say that nobody is going to remember the dudes that fought for you to smoke weed! Cali has the best weed in the WORLD been proven time and time again. I'm going to help the consumer when nobody is helping up with gas priceket.ily get by without the assholes who want to see people go to jail so they can own the mars and the cost of living.. It's funny to me all you cry baby's want weed cheaper while everything else is going up makes no sense....

No, those boys have no ownership on cannabis. We would easily get by without those assholes who want to keep cannabis illegal so they can be filthy rich. Good cannabis in Canada. We would totally survive without elite California. FUCK any grower from california or anywhere who thinks they own the market. We don't need assholes like that!
