Thanks Bill, what a guy.

State Representatives Fail To Block It
because they got high
- That's because the opposition of the drug legalization is having world's biggest drug festival in Munich right now.
- 🎵Went to block the bubatz bill, but then I got high 🎵
- And also because hopefully people just laugh when Bavaria of all drug-guzzling states wanted to block it.

Germany's gonna need it considering the far right are on the verge of consolidating power again
- Learned nothing from history, I guess.
  
  Denazification really failed in the GDR.

I mean, it’s the half-assed draft that was announced a long time back, but still, better than nothing
- I actually like it. Legalize it but make it non-commercial so nobody profits from other people's addiction.
  
  Wake me up when they also update the traffic laws. Positive drug test because you smoked a week ago? There goes your drivers licence.
  
  I don't mind people making a bit of profit off of it. Gambling, tobacco, alcohol and all sorts of other addictive things are for profit, so why exclude cannabis?
  As long as the money is moved out of the hands of career criminals and moved in to the hands of people that can use that money to benefit society via taxes and such.
  
  Not familiar with german politics - would you mind giving a quick tl/dr of how it is supposed to work?
  
  nobody profits from other people’s addiction.
  Then how in the world does that work for beer and other alcohol sales in Germany??

Finally some good news. Even though the draft is a little shitty i can not wait to grow my own weed 🤩
- Im quite interested in how fast they can release the Law...
  
  I hope soon but i am not too optimistic.

Honestly, with all the shit going on, nobody really cares anymore here.
- Speak for yourself bud. I do care.
  
  Heh, you said bud.
- People care. Other stuff is more important for sure, but people can care for more than one thing at a time.
- I care and literally everyone I know in my age +/- 10 years cares.

This is the beginning. Soon weed shall be legal in all of Europe. And I won't be able to enjoy it because I live in the UK 🤦‍♂️
- Somewhere there must be a benefit! I don't know where or even what but atleast somewhere right? Right?
  
  I sure do hope so

I'm glad that Germany is doing this. Marijuana is better for you than tobacco and no worse than alcohol, people should have the legal ability to decide whether or not they want to use it.
