I love you President Joe Biden. How I wish Buhari could see the light. Hopefully, Akeredolu of ondo state will push harder when that vegetable finally becomes president

Marijuana mainstreaming is here to stay. Societies are dynamic in the way they make and update laws. The use and possession of marijuana were criminalized in response to the social-economic realities at the time when those laws were made. Today, our reality is different, and laws must be updated to reflect these new realities and scientific discoveries.

I wish Nigeria had such a dynamic legislative process. We continue to perpetuate laws that were made when the world was different. Some of our laws are not in synch with modern realities, and anyone who tries to question this becomes the political enemy of the cabal that benefits from retrogressive policies and laws.

WHAT DYNAMICS IS HINDERING LAWS AGAINST POSSESSION OF ARMS? OR YOU MEAN TO SAY THE U.S.A CAN'T OUT GROW IT'S BARBARIC CULTURE IN THIS MODERN REALITIES?

Big pharmaceutical companies won't like this. They'd rather have you on opioids and other shit that breaks down your body systematically, silently.

Marijuana is probably one of nature's best cures (extreme nausea in cancer patients, insomnia, parkinson's, depression, pain management, etc) but we'd rather turn a blind eye to alcohol and cigarettes which have zero beneficial value.

I see people confusing synthetic products like loud, Arizona, etc with cannabis. Some even say it's a "gateway drug".
It's no more gateway than blaming coca-cola for an alcoholic problem because you learnt how to "drink" from soft drinks.

Look up the demographic of people targetted by the drug war.
And the disproportionate harsher sentencing for black people for marijuana possession and use compared to other racial groups.

Nothing to do with dems or GOP.
Lots of states are already legalizing recreational use of marijuana.
Arizona and Alaska are Republican states and recreational marijuana is legal in those states.

Britney Griners is serving 9 years jail term in Russia for being in possession of this substance.

He has no jurisdiction in Russia


I think it should be regulated by the government, otherwise people will abuse it.

Who is govt to determine what ppl want to abuse?
Why not regulate mini skirt as well.?


But I believe biden took this decision after a painstaking consideration.
Yeah.
He needs black Votes



But guys, Joe biden and buhari are of the same age and biden is doing well in America, biden's stamina and brilliance can't be compared to our own clueless president.
You don't live in America do you?
What has Biden done? Let's start there
Watch how you will perambulate



And for those calling me US bootlicker, I'm not, I just admire their greatness since there's nothing to admire here in Nigeria.
I like biden because of his compassion and tolerance, he embraces everyone regardless of race, gender and creed.
compassion and tolerance is how tyrants disguise

What socio-economic realities are you referencing? The clampdown on marijuana use in the US had its roots in racial prejudice. Black and Hispanics who, white people believed, were being morally and physically distorted by marijuana use. Look it up,

What do you understand by the compounded word “socio-economic”? It appears you have a simplistic understanding of it because everything you’ve said clearly have both social and economic bases.

The interplay of social behavior and economics. This was no interplay but based wholly on social prejudice. You do not have the talent to match your ambition. When you're corrected take it on the chin like a good lad and lay down.

It’s legal in many states but Russia is not United States. One needs to know the laws of the country they plan to visit.
