Jerry thinks that making it harder for us to grow Cannabis in California, which produces 40 billion dollars worth of Cannabis per year.. is going to deter the Mexicans and Canadians from smuggling it in? What?!?!
The best wee in the WORLD comes from Cali! Everyone knows that.

“By the way, most abusers of Schedule 1 drugs began with alcohol,”

You hit the nail on the head, Russ!
- Alcohol strongly reduces inhibitions to
trying OTHER hard-drugs, (e.g. cocaine),
and then cocaine,
(by neutralizing pre-existing alcohol-buzz),
allows one to drink more.

(FYI: By inference, in the above description,
ALCOHOL is ALSO a “hard-drug”).

I can’t wonder if he’s making an even cheaper argument than the gateway theory.

“nearly all studies show that most abusers of Schedule 1 drugs began by using marijuana.”
Well, yeah, Considering marijuana is a schedule one drug itself (and use = abuse, right).

Yeah, We’ve done a terrific job of 1)reducing the demand and 2)reducing the supply over the last 70 years. And so shall be the same plan for the next 70 in his eyes.
