  1. Here in California marijuana is mostly grown by Mex & whites in Humboldt & Los Angeles county. They know more about the plant and take the time to spend the extra dough on the equipment & labor hours it’s a lot of labor in growing top shelve flower. They package it up and sell some off to the blacks and other Mexicans in street prices. If anybody should deserve getting money back is the laborers who put they’re time money and took the most risk of growing it. Not some ghetto mex or black kid on the corner selling dime bags.. 💯

  2. We get locked up for weed but yet not one dispensary is owned by a Black man or woman. They have monopolized off of us for way too long it's ridiculous.

  3. It's been the fucking answer for fucking generations. Making this herb illegal, fucking ruined so many people's lives. Normal people who just smoke weed have to get treated like coke heads. They get jailed, fined, etc. This jail system is what is going to create criminals and rebels. These selfish and corrupt politicians see weed as a taboo and it shouldn't. Putting taxes on weed and the people having a lack of control with pricing their product is going to make anyone sell on the street illegally. The fact the country is so divided is yet another contributor as to why the war on drugs is occurring. Half the people want to regulate weed, and the other half don't ever even want to see a dispensary in their neighborhood. The states where weed is illegal, the politicians just want money. Only 100 people can own a dispensary in the state of California, yet thousands of people (both normal people and gangs) grow and sell weed in there neighborhood which also gets smuggled country-wide. Before 1930, weed was legal. The Mexicans started bringing weed into the country through the borders and that's suddenly like when we were make weed illegal. Because of a fucking border make everyone think its heroin. It's only been looked bad in the past 100 years. Cigarettes are more dangerous and yet it was so regulated to smoke cigarettes not even 20 years ago right? It is a common pattern for people in the USA to be divided on beliefs. If no one can agree on a single damn thing in this country, it is going to fall apart until we can unite as Americans again and stop treating anyone who smokes weed like a gangster drug addict. I am thankful that there is a video touching the tip of the iceberg of our problem with war on drugs. We need to separate people who smoke weed from drug addicts who are physically addicted to dangerous substances.

  4. Im a recovering addict 14 yrs clean, Ive been smoking weed the entire time. (I have to have something). My sobriety is reliable, Easy, and it worked the first time.

  5. Where is my social equity? My father was arrested for conspiracy to traffic cannabis . When I was 17. I ended up graduating a semester earlier to get a job and help out taking care of my younger siblings didn’t have the opportunity or means to go to college after that had my car seized by the police never to be seen again. The laws are messed up and controlled by the medical side with monopoly stores

  6. Alcohol is the third largest cause of death in the United States….. Like this death number is bigger than guns it's bigger than covid it ruins relationships. The list goes on. Name one person that has died due to marijuana. Its all about money. It's not a war on drugs its a war on money. They can make money off of drugs. People need them so they charge. Its cool that people who follow the rules or law if you may are striving to fix the problem and that's awesome.

  7. government imposed lotteries on starting businesses is a bad idea, but lets use the government machine to dismantle capitalism?
    I have a hard time grasping why, if pot is legal, that you would need to win a lottery to open a store to sell it. That is not capitalism at work and is not good for minority communities. If these rules are imposed by the government that is trying to "help" these communities, i would start to question in what way they are actually helping

  8. Can’t be half the country still fighting state and fed laws!!! Brothers still getting locked down while whites making millions!!! Off of what they said was so bad!!! But locking up us blacks still!!!!

  9. I have no problems with this.
    As long as it does not disturb people's.im good.

    We have the detect to monitor gangs and organize crimes almost everything legalize but standardise.

    We must cooperate willingly.
    Then it's good.
    Simple

  10. Okay as long as it does not pose any level of disorder it will be fast and spread and the health care are affordable.

    We just want that drugs out illegally.
    And legalize it and make standards and everything..

    We don't stop people to be happy.
    Just don't cause problems
    Then it's good.
