Reply to comment by Sirhc978 in Why is New Hampshire the last state in New England remaining that still has not legalized weed yet? by throwawaypdtm
Right, but the talking point is that it can’t be legalized until the feds legalize it because ‘they’ have to make it sold only through state liquor stores because ‘reasons’.

Totally odd, they have the mirror image of what actually happened. Thanks for doing the research.

I agree that her cautious centrism is awful, and she did in fact veto pot. So what about Hassan when Sununu is slammed is a fair criticism. But the ‘can’t legalize because liquor stores’ is just made up nonsense.

Yeah she sucked on that issue. I voted against her in the primary because she sucked so much on this.

it is apparently a talking point intended to excuse the moralistic bullshit that is the GOP these days.

Because we decided that, with respect to weed, you have to be dying to live free.

And Vermont where it is legal. Also Canada but it would be foolish to transport across that border. We are a prohibition desert in a pot oasis.

The bill does not put pot in state stores, it put the liquor commission in charge of regulating cultivation distribution and sales.

So kind of a ‘free will of the gaps’ argument?

Yup lots of Nazis in GB and in the US.

Hitler probably could have gotten a peace deal if he hadn’t started his war in the east and convinced the Japanese to not attack the US. But then again the Nazi were basically clowns who got their hands on power so blundering was inevitable.

Well it made me very uncomfortable, but yeah I want a government at least nominally elected by the people in charge of real weapons of mass destruction. Again, opposition to the current regime is not the same as opposition to the institution itself.

Ok you have conflated criticism of a specific administration with opposition to government in general, but I’m sure you knew that.

The oaf creepers got hit pretty hard. A lot of people had no clue what they were getting into, so I agree with serious, as in felony, but lesser charges for these idiots.

Because we insist on a lifetime of punishment, a felony conviction just follows you around forever and really messes up trying to be a normal person.

Reply to comment by drivermcgyver in How can I help New Hampshire legalize recreational weed? by cat-gun
Regulation isn't a problem. Every legal state also has a state regulatory agency controlling the market. That is actually part of the informal agreement with the DEA.
There is a theory, pretty clearly intended to deflect from Sununu's veto last time, that 'the state' must sell pot through the state stores. So who is this 'the state'? It obviously isn't the House.
