Teachers can bring guns, let the kids bring weed.
It’s the best way to keep everyone calm with all those guns around
When the shooting starts, the joints come out
Tactical spliffs
That sounds awful! If you're gonna bring something to class, you need to bring enough for everyone.
Maybe he's touting smaller class sizes?
True. Republicans famously love funding public education.
People can already bring 20 joints into a school if they want to. Has Ron looked at other states that have legalized it and observed schools bursting at the seems with pot?
prevalent odor of cannabis that he says would result from the reform
Oh no! Another smell to go along with car exhaust and low tide!
Don’t forget the stink of sprinklers spraying shitty hard water so it smells like diarrhea everywhere.
Ok so ban booze and guns.
Oh wait he's talking out of his ass politically, ideologically, and logically.
Ok, how about we compromise and have teachers armed with joints to protect the kids from the drug dealers?
The best defense against a bad guy with a joint is a good guy with a joint.
I remember the FUD that was spread when Colorado and Washington State legalized. None of it happened. A local TV News crew created an exercise where they would make different levels of cannabis user drive a course while traffic cops would evaluate their abilities to operate a motor vehicle.
Every driver considered themselves to stoned to drive safely even though the cops said they didn't drive like it. The Stoner girl said she was way to high to drive and wouldn't even try in real life but she passed the tests.
And the smell thing.... Pioneer Square in Seattle has a smell to it, if it hasn't rained in a while. Lots of pissing in the alley type behavior. I worked for a hospital that ran a clinic there. Usually the area stinks.
A long comes accessable cannabis for all. IDK if you don't like the smell of pot smoking.
It's by far better than the smell of piss.
We also have a drinking culture where doing it alone at home is considered taboo. You're supposed to go out to a bar and do it, and then get home somehow.
Cannabis use doesn't have that culture, not even in legalized states.
Those kids can find their own weed. I'm not going to give out my weed to a bunch of kids. Insert Any George Carlin quote here
Reminds me of the fear mongering a conservative family member was spouting when my state legalized weed. She was going on and on about how car accidents were going to “skyrocket” because everyone would be driving high. We’ve been legalized for about four years now, the first time I heard about any high driving incident was a couple of weeks ago when two people died. Now, obviously the number of high drivers is probably more than that, and any kind of intoxicated driving is irresponsible, but that’s the first time I heard a case make the news, meanwhile NHTSA says an average of 37 people die due to drunk driving per day.
well you can't stop people from bringing joints by making it illegal; that way only the bad guys would bring joints. instead everyone should bring joints to school because the only thing that can stop a bad guy with a joint is a good guy with a joint.
Pro Life Republicans: Legalizing weed will bring weed into Schools! Also Pro Life Republicans: ANY AND ALL REGULATION ON GUNS IS ILLEGAL!
Leary said: “LSD is a psychedelic drug which occasionally causes psychotic behavior in people who have NOT taken it.”
I think this applies just as much to something like the Devil's lettuce.
I can’t even imagine being a full-grown adult who doesn’t know what it feels like to have consciousness altered by drugs.
It’s like meeting someone who was born in a car, and they’ve just never ever gotten out of that car.
Like there’s a door in your wall marked “to alien universe” and you just walked by it for 40 years and never wanted to peek inside? What?
Ron. Ron, my guy. Do you know how much weed costs? Like hell am I bringing enough for the whole damn school, those little fuckers can buy their own.
Nobody brings that much marinuanans to an elementary school and even if they did they aren't giving that shit away free to the kids. Shit costs money.
Whats great is that elementary school kids can share a joint among like two or three of them so it is really cost effective
Wouldn't it be nice if Ron died a horrible, slow, painful death ?
Anything less than Rabies is better than he deserves.
20 joints?
That's not nearly enough to share with everyone.
Yeah, but what I want to know is what happened to the Taco trucks on every street. It's closing in on lunch.
Just think of how marijuana legalization would help the taco truck industry!
If you're going to bring weed to class, you better bring enough for everyone.
I mean not too big of a fan of Marijuana since it increases my risk of schizophrenia which im predisposed too but its hard not to find this extremely stupid when cigarettes are still legal their and they are 100x worse along with vapes and alcohol. I mean if you are gonna have some laws be consistent instead of favoring one cause you like it more and poisoning the air
Joints are better than guns.
But I guess DeShitStain hasn’t quite thought that through.
Everytime a person or group is against something, they pull out the ol' "what about kids and schools?!" Like they give a shit.
Oh, they definitely do care about schools.That's where middle age conservatives meet their wives.
Ron should try some weed
He probably does, but of course he has a persona to uphold.
Well, as long as it's not 19 or 21 then we're good.
I am confused. When I was in school, a third of the faculty smoked. I was surrounded by hundreds of cigarettes all day every day at school.
What do they think is going to happen? The kids will get high by osmosis?
This is the same clown that released a Neo-Nazi campaign video right?
And participated in a human trafficking scheme that backfired spectacularly when the people he trafficked were greeted with compassion instead of contempt.
20 joints? Bad!
20 guns? Go right ahead sir!
If only there were states that passed similar laws that we could look at to see how things played out.
Oh wait. We do. And none of this shit happened.
He smiles so so terribly.
Look, teachers gotta be able to wind down in the break room.
They'll do something once someone builds an AR15 that shoots marijuana joints into people's mouth. Imagine 20 joint extended magazines.
South Florida is turning into New Atlantis and this fucking idiot is complaining about weed. I hope he gets hit by a meteor.
I live in Canada where marijuana is fully legal.
Ron DeSantis is a fucking idiot. Anyone who believes his bullshit is an even bigger fucking idiot.
Just 20? Not 21? What if they are small, can I bring more? We have to have enough for the entire class, and kids are lightweights.
Yes,and then the trans drag queens will start raping children with those joints and their BLT BBQ agenda! And the sun will go dark, and the milk in cows' udders will go sour, and then banned books are going to rain from the sky, right Ron?
