I never said that cannabis has a public relations problem; the sh!t practically sells it self. But the fact is that each plant is a specific strain and has a name. It's tantamount to going to the grocery store and asking the workers to help you find
"Food."

You only end up paying $50 so you can be carded and tracked how much "pot" you (not you specifically) smokes. So the push to legalize is only a push to strengthen big business' profit margin, an oppressive government and the industrial/military complex. Glad to see what side you're really on.

Stop trolling, you're better than that. Legalization / decriminalization isn't going to put your local dealer out of business, but it IS going to open the market to people who generally would not have access to it. You know that I am against corporatism, and the patenting and trademarking of sh!t. 75% of the sh!t on my website violated copyrights.
