Doesn't work.... two bad knees with multi surgeries. Doesn't touch it. Like TW I can take pain killers but won't. You learn to live with the pain. Note... no I wouldn't use pot either.

Never tried either. Don't intend to either. FP( Your description of the flavor kind of drove me away.

i'm sure if it was just an ingredient in some otherwise delicious brownies, you might not even notice. they sell plenty of edibles and drinkables that contain cbd already. even beer that contains cbd by some well-known craft brewers here in california.

I do like the brownie. Had a couple once, almost by accident. It was eye opening. thumbsup
 
A co worker of mine makes a cream with CBD oil. Seems to ease pain a bit. I call it Spicoli Sauce.

As an ex-cop, even back then, I wasn't too into the idea of arresting anyone because they had a joint on them. That's not the same as finding a junkie with a bag of coke, and 4 stolen TVs in the back of his car. Pot smokers aren't in to that. They're more like; "Dude! I got the munchies, let's go to Taco Bell!" That's followed by a 3 hour nap, not a crime spree in a middle class neighborhood.

It should be legalized. It has some very seriously good effects in the health field. People going through chemo, pain control, and so many effects that work. I understand it even has a positive effect on neuro diseases, which helps a great number of people.

Let's face it. If we really wanted to address a couple of serious problems, we should have started by outlawing sugar, then followed up with alcohol. Both of them probably have a worse effect on people than a joint.

What I'm referring to with Mr. Smith is that he screwed up. Accept the fate. Even guys playing for the Denver Broncos are subject to the rules of the NFL, which are based on a national playing field. There is drug testing once a year, and if you end up caught, you can end up going through their protocol.

Anyhow, that's my opinion.

Should it be legal yes. Will it ever be no.

#1 I don’t think any politician in Washington has the sack to vote on legislation to make it legal. It’s a political nightmare and won’t want to infringe in states rights

#2.Finding a way to tax and regulate nationally would be a cluster f%#*

#3. You would need national standardization on retail locations similar to Liqour stores. Yeah good luck with that

have to disagree with that. i agree that currently there probably aren't enough brave politicians in d.c., but as far as infringing on states rights, i don't think there's an issue. the way things are now infringes on states right more than if it were legalized nationally.

finding a way to tax and regulate is no more challenging than tobacco or alcohol.

you would not need national standardization on retail locations. there is no national standardization with alcohol. some states still have blue laws. other states sell alcohol openly in grocery stores and even drive-thrus.

i don't think the obstacles are challenging as you make them sound. everything is working pretty well in california's first year, and the main obstacle is that because it is not legal on a national basis, the businesses have found it difficult to operate on an all-cash basis. we had our local smoke shops bringing in duffel bags full of cash to pay their taxes.

I think the big tobacco lobby will make it very difficult to regulate and tax and Bible Belt states will be never be as progressive as California or Colorado. I do think more states will pass laws to make it legal or decriminalize pot but it’s going to be the exception not the rule

40 states have legalized either marijuana or cbd oil (or both) for medicinal use. i'm pretty sure that makes it the rule rather than exception. and while there are only 12 states that have fully legalized marijuana for all uses (including recreational), if you measure the percentage of population in those states i think we are getting close to the tipping point.
