Good. I hope it doesn’t take us much longer. I’m sure it won’t be too long before all of the data showing that their society didn’t implode comes out.

Oklahoma is so conservative I thought it would be 1 of the last 5 states to legalize it. Medical was approved in the last election and they started issuing medical cards last month. I caught a big whiff of marijuana last night as I got out of my car in my driveway. Apparently I have a neighbor that just received their card. The times they are a changing...
I have a few SIGs.

It’s not a question of society imploding; it’s more of the next generation having less impetus to excel. And the argument that people are going to smoke it regardless of legality is flawed. More people will smoke it and limit themselves.
Modern high potency strains are practically narcotic in how they affect people. When you talk to the folks that smoke it, there is a clear reduction in mental faculties.

A friend of mine who travels to Colorado quite a bit told me that after the legalization of pot, he has yet to receive a food order correct at any restaurant, sit down or fast food.

If Canada implodes it won't be because of legal pot. It'll be because they enthusiastically adopt every dumb ass idea (e.g. bring in unvetted refugees of supposedly Syrian origin by the planeload) that sends Europe further into the abyss. Even worse, due to their inferiority complex to the US they even decided to elect someone less qualified than 0bama.

Your friend is likely full of shit. I've eaten three meals a day in CO since it became legal - many of them out at restaurants. Not seeing it.
