Biden only supported legalized medical marijuana, and to his credit, he did actually start the process to do that. He order rescheduling to schedule 3 which basically legalizes medical marijuana. It should go into effect around December as the DEA has dragged out the process

    Don’t follow what you are saying? Legalizing recreationally is also legalizing it medically

    Even Biden supported medical marijuana and he already started the process to legalize that (via rescheduling)

      What he’s saying is that a lot of the forces against recreational legalization are also against medical legalization, and moreover that a lot of the “moral crusade” against it is actually just cynical anti-competitive business tactics.

      Or, [sigh], maybe that’s just what I’m reading into it and he had no deeper point to make.

      but legalizing medically is NOT legalizing recreationally

        Yes? Harris is saying she wants it legalized medically and recreationally. She’s supporting full legalization here and she has earlier in the campaign

        I still don’t follow what you are trying to say? Unless you are just concuring with Harris?

            Sorry it’s hard to tell over text sometimes. Have had plenty of fully genuine conversations with people saying things like this who are not being sarcastic
