I wonder if I could get the Doc in a Box at Med Pharm Iowa to say I had anxiety from wokeism and that I need a 1g cartridge of 90% THC.
Do you have a working brain? The Netherlands has nothing in common with the U.S.
BTW the Netherlands has plenty of its own issues.
Why don't you smoke a joint and settle the F down
Hmmm....well since I was not referring to you...sure....
I saw the post about the Democrats proposing legalized marijuana in Iowa. It's definitely a super interesting topic! But it might face some challenges, especially with Republican lawmakers and Gov. Kim Reynolds not being on board. But hey, let's talk about it anyway, right? Missouri and Illinois have already legalized recreational marijuana, so maybe it's something worth considering for Iowa too. Rep. Jennifer Konfrst made some good points about the benefits, like keeping the sales tax revenue in Iowa and helping people with chronic illnesses. But at the end of the day, it'll be up to the lawmakers and what they prioritize. Rep. Steve Holt and Rep. Phil Thompson, both Republicans, don't seem to think there's enough support for the proposal among their colleagues. I'll definitely keep an eye out for any updates on the bill and how it progresses. And oh, by the way, have you ever been to Devine South Boston? It's a nice spot. Just curious.

I think it would be smart for Iowa to just sit back and watch the various experiments currently underway in surrounding states,.. this may turn out to be more trouble than it's worth.
The states that were going to make a killing were the first ones where people traveled to go see them and they could set the price floor. Now it's closer to the open market, as a central Iowan, I won't go to Illinois anymore unless I'm on the east side. Missouri is closer and 2/3rds the price.
Legalize it, sell it +18 or 21, send the money to the schools, find a way to DUI test foe anyone activily under the influence.

The only thing that could possibly make this site worse is a bot infestation.
We already have China Joe @Joes Place spouting Chinese propaganda. Ron's histrionic ass isn't funny anymore. Our Dinosuar coach is picked to finish second in a middling division, again, and now bots.
O yeah, and I'm the only one who occasionally post tits.
I agree with this and I’m someone who partakes in recreational use. I am perfectly fine with driving to Missouri or Illinois for a refill. Until we know what issues could arise from chronic usage, for both individuals and those around them, I think it should stay illegal in Iowa. Once there is a for sure method for testing those who are under suspicion for driving while high and we know what kind of long term effects it can have on people, then I’m game for legalization.
Weed has a distinct smell to it and I’m not sure I like the idea of walking down the street or going out somewhere and there being an unmistakeable skunky smell in the air.
Going on a decade here in CO and we're doing just fine. As for the smell, it's not legal to smoke indoors and who gives a sh*t if you're outside?
Colorado was smart to make a shit ton of money early in the process.
We still get a ton of out of staters, especially from Texas.
When I lived in Lincoln dudes would take off Friday so they could max out Friday, sat, Sunday and make it home by NFL Sunday night.
That was always kind of crazy to me.

opposition to this is completely illogical to me. No worse at all than alcohol or cigarettes, and we Iowans love our Busch Light, Hawkeye vodka and Marlboros.
Legalize it and profit from it, send the cash to the schools.

A very noticeable portion of Americans can’t handle drugs, alcohol, credit, or social media.
It is what it is but I doubt the money generated offsets the issues that come from making access to another Vice easier.
Yes, make it legal but there will be consequences.
You just wait and see for another decade, the end of Western civilization is just around the corner.
Illinois, Missouri, and soon Minnesota thanks all Iowans for their patronage.
No idea. I am sure opinions vary and maybe not enough time has passed.
I do believe making anything “legal” = more people will try it. Which increases the quantity of people in the “proven they can’t handle it” pool.
The good news is weed and chiropractors seem to be the cures for every malady known to man.
Purely anecdotal but I've heard some shitty stories about how weed morphed into "tweakers" stealing shit. I've posted the story of my buddies car getting stolen on here before.

As dumb as hillbilly Missouri is, its legislature can never lose to Iowa in a test.
