Spring is Bringing Rain, Floods and CBD Oil

I don’t think it’s a secret a good number of Americans have pushed for the legalization of marijuana for quite some time.

During my college (state university) days, one could sit in the student union working on homework and detecting the smell of pot wafting through the student union. That was many many days ago. Yet in spite of what appeared to be at the time a desire by the American people to use pot, there continued to be draconian laws penalizing anyone caught smoking or possessing marijuana.

Many lives have been ruined by the enforcement of these laws.

States are now legalizing (mostly via referendum) the usage of pot. Some of the laws only allow for some sort of medical use and others are making recreational use legal. States are moving in this direction, even though the federal government continues to be against any law liberalizing pot usage. 

I have often thought how could a government of the people on the federal level get it so wrong. The government and its various agencies continue to harass the very people who put it in power. State governments see the handwriting on the wall and are bending to the will of the people.

Now moving on to a product many folks believe is related to marijuana … CBD Oil (a dietary supplement) is taking the country by storm. Americans (young to old) rushing to use CDB oil for all kinds of reasons.

I can’t give you specific cites, but going from memory as the news articles fly by … CBD oil is becoming an ingredient in many products … I see it offered up in jelly beans, alcohol products, etc. The American people want it so badly that they are rushing to purchase products with the oil being a necessary ingredient. Plus, they’re even buying the oil and taking it straight. Imagine that? LOL

Maybe, it’s good for you, then again perhaps it's not. It kind of reminds me of watching old westerns where they feature a medicine man coming into town offering up a product that cures everything. As it stands now, the CBD medicine man acts a lot in the same way.

Be that as it may …

What we are seeing is that the American people want marijuana & CBD Oil so intensely they are running and jumping to the arms of anyone who satisfies this need and desire.

Hey, you government folks who think you are supposed to control our lives and force us to do what you think we should be doing … 

We, the people are doing what we want to do, NOT what you think is best. FREEDOM is something you should read up on.

SO BACK OFF!!!

the NFL & Money (No right or wrong)

Here is my take ... It has been reported that Athletes participating in the league will most likely be susceptible to suffering from CTE and other lingering injuries playing the game. Do note, that many parents are becoming less likely to encourage their children (unless it is the only way out of their socioeconomic status) to play football because of those injuries. The NFL is not expected to stop playing the game because of this harm. Could it be they fear the loss of money and status? Recently, the NFL was shocked by the trend associated with “Colin Kaepernick”  protesting American political and social issues by refusing to honor the playing of the “Star Spangled Banner.” Once again, money was and is the issue here. We have no idea of what the owners of the NFL are thinking because whatever they decided to do was to make sure fans continued to watch and attend football games. Revenue from ticket sales and television viewing is a pretty big deal. Recent relocations of several N

Our Current Political Leaders are a DISGRACE

This current batch of political leaders are most disingenuous ... thus, disgracing their elevated leadership status. Perhaps, referring to them as such is a little strong .... nevertheless, it may NOT be too far off the mark. If any of our elected leaders truly cared about a solution to the immigration problem, then at this very moment we would be talking about workable solutions instead of blaming each other for the lack thereof. The images we are being presented with regarding detention of children are simply put forth to elicit emotional outbursts as opposed to serving as a basis for generating solutions to the overall problem of illegal immigration and border security. Once again, the defenseless  (in this case the most helpless of all ... children) are getting hurt and are no more than political pawns. Hey!!! Washington ... these defenseless folks have families, breath, blood and emotions. Management types in business, will tell the minions ... that if we are not part of

Robert De Niro's "72nd Tony Awards" "F-bomb" Tirade

Pretty scary stuff ..... and I'm also a little shocked by the rousing applause to go along with it. The icing on the cake came with a comment by the playwright, "Tony Kushner" (backstage supporting and listening to Mr. De Niro) denouncing the Trump presidency by referring to it as "the Hitler mistake." Normally, the safest course of action when threatening behavior rears its ugly head is to move as far away as one can possibly get. At times it has been necessary for me to run in the opposite direction when faced with .... 1. Individuals in a state of rage (angry). 2. Those that exhibit racial hatred and/or hatred of any kind. 3. Unsavory locker room talk, and .... 4. Physical violence. In a free society, Mr De Niro has the right to express himself politically as he wishes. Perhaps that is the underlying message regarding the standing "O" ... not necessarily standing to support his opinion, but his right to have one and openly express it. LOL
