    I don’t use cannabis, but the people should vote on it. On a more serious note, the feds screwed this up by allowing states to legalize it but keeping it illegal under federal law. They either need to crack down on the states or decriminalize it at a federal level.

    The way it is right now is just stupid.

  While other border states have done the right thing, legalized, and taxed it to increase revenues and ensure a minimum safe quality, you can always rely on Texas to do the opposite.

  Makes sense, conservatives pretend to hate the “nanny state,” but they LOVE telling other people what to do.
