Marijuana for recreational or medicinal? Dont be shy?

Well... California just passed legalizing marijuana. I love it. Would you say you would grow it for medicinal purposes or recreational purposes?

I wish the legalization bug would bite the whole nation. It looks as though today Sessions is taking steps to fight legal users.

It's all medicinal, either for your body's health, or your mental health. The recreational aspects are a bonus.

I am 100% in favor for recreational and medical use, as a man of 70+ years, it has been a mystery to me why this hasn't happened decades ago. I am 100% in favor of marijuana being used for all purposes.

I favor full legalization as we have enough people in jail already. It’s ludicrous to put someone in jail for using pot. I do favor cracking down on people for dealing bad addictive drugs like meth, heroin and the opioids. After the 3rd offense for those drugs they should be shot.

It's medicine. Not a drug. Our bodies are developed evolutionary to utilize the compounds in cannabis. It's a no brainer. If the planets human habitats were carpet bombed with pot smoke all of society would change real quick. Sooooo much bullshit would be done. Not practical at all but a fun thought.

My health insurance had run out so I got an MM card. I was amazed as to how many of my ailments it helped, sometimes more than the pharmaceutical drugs prescribed.

But it should be legal regardless. And hemp industries should be encouraged. Corporate interests have a long, sordid history of kneecapping such ventures.

Legalize! !!!

Either is reasonable. Marijuana has unlimited potential as an alternative to prescription drugs. I don't use it myself, but I fully advocate it's use, medically or recreationally

Legalize it! One hubby was an abusive violent alcoholic, the other smoked dope....who do you think beat the crap outta me regularly

In my lifetime I have used marijuana but I no longer do so. I support legalization because I think it is absurd that we arrest people for using and smoking something that grows wild out in fields. You can have laws that apply to excess usage, but not laws that prevent use of something growing naturally.

Not my thing but I am all for both...

Im all for medical marijuana, actually I don't mind it being legal for recreational as well. Its not my thing, but I believe some people are better off smoking that than they are drinking alcohol.
I have seen a few people ADHD, who completely calm down after smoking, though give them alcohol and its a horror.
I have also met a few people, with missing limbs, who get the phantom limb pain and they say the only thing that helps is if they smoke.
They are trying to get it legalized here, I hope they do. As I said not for me, but it works for many.

I support full legalization. It's time to stop jailing people for smoking flowers.

It should be legal . I once grew it for a couple of years

Legalize it across the board. I would use it both medicinally and for recreation.
I'd love to grow my own legally. I'd do it in a heartbeat.

2

I doubt that I would use it now -- did plenty of that in my youth. However, I absolutely believe that it should be legal everywhere.

I know a couple people that grow it for medicinal use, and it seems really finicky to me, based on the attention to environmental requirements. Kinda like how beekeeping is for those who enjoy giving attention to details. So would I grow it? No... I have someone who gives it to me!

2

It will probably soon be legal in all states because of tax revenue potential, but it never should have been prohibited. Also... medical and recreational aren't the only uses. Mind altering substances have a long history of use in spiritual practices, which I realize is a dirty word here but... maybe I should say creative imagination enhancement.

Did so much prior joining the military. Did once with a daughter after retiring of military. Don't miss it. Not appealing right now. Don't really do medicines... Pretty strange. Those who do for recreation... Enjoy... Those who need for Medical Purposes... Get it and get Cured. Totally Neutral. But support the use by others.

i would for sure

Both should be legalised. There's no moral reason to prevent people from having access to a drug that can help them live with debilitating diseases, and no logical reason to allow criminals to make huge amounts of money from one people clearly want.

Marijuana/cannabis is the most important plant in the world. The US military complex and Justice created it illegal in every country in the world except one, Uruguay. The war on drugs has lost to a score of 1000s the to 1. The cost to ruining lives is greater than the Holocaust.
