It's about time! :thumbs:The DEA said it will likely decide in the first half of 2016 whether to reclassify cannabis in a category other than Schedule 1

Regardless of how you feel about the marijuana issue. I always thought that pot should not be a schedule 1 drug.
It was always silly to me that pot, LSD and Peyote are schedule 1 and Meth and Cocaine are schedule 2.

Makes sense, and it gives the DEA cover to not pursue prosecutions of pot users.
What does the DEA say about cigarettes?
Not much I suspect, however cigarettes are the most addictive substance on the planet and kills millions every year.
It is legal...
But a drug that calms people down [you never hear a pot user say anything like "leave me alone, I am fine to drive." More likely: "sorry, guys but I'm am way too loaded right now to go anywhere."] is schedule 1.
One product cannot be grown without massive amounts of chemical fertilizers, huge corporate farms, polluting drying sheds, the other will grow anywhere, and makes fine linen that will last for years. So, here's the punch line. I have two shirts made from hemp. They are wonderful, never stain and never wear out. If I wear either of them south of the 49th parallel I am committing a felony.
Now that's tight assed!
Yea the DEA should be focusing on drug traffickers not users.
I'm not a pot smoker myself. I mean yea I smoked some in college etc.. but I haven't in many years. But I'm amiable about the legalizing it. And as far as this article yea... pot should be maybe a schedule 3 drug . certainly not schedule 1

It will be legal here in some fashion next year. What remains to be seen is what kind of access they allow.
Here, the courts have ruled that Marijuana, THC and the other "oids" it contains are a legitimate medicine, and that the no government can prevent access to that medicine. So as it sits, we have a very confusing situation. Here in Vancouver there are 300 dispensaries and I have five within walking distance. The city, has chosen to "back door legalize" by establishing regulations in a new specific business license.
However, up river in Chilliwack, the Mounties are still busting people.

Legalization will be on the ballot this fall in AZ, of course the local politicians (who recieve a lot of $$ from the liquor lobby) are already trying to pass laws to severely restrict and delay anything that we vote in. They did this with medical marijuana, and lost every single court case. Too many bad politicians on the take from the alcohol folks.
Especially considering the us government holds the patent on CBD as medicine.
The drug they claimed has no accepted medical use.
We had to fight Stephen Harper for eight years. With a Supreme court ruling saying no government may intrude upon nor restrict access to medical bud, the SOB tries to regulate who will grow it, making it illegal for anyone to grow their own. Two years in the courts and he was voted out before the court ruled again in favor of open access, and struck down the law. As it stands right now, police can and are making arrests, however I doubt any of them will see the light of day.
Personally I think some of our judges use it, they're best friends pot users ever had. Two years ago they brought a guy up on charges, police say he had 123 plants in various states of growth. He pleaded personal use, the judge agreed and tossed the case.
125 plants would translate into about 250 to 300 ounces. personal use?

industrial hemp is legal in the U.S., but growing it isn't.
