Re: How do you feel about Legalized Marijuana?

http://tribuneherald.net/2013/06/03/texas-legislator-drops-marijuana-cigarette-while-speaking-on-floor/ Fake story, there is no such legislator or town. They is a semi-famous book that has that town in the title. But there was a City Prosecutor in Louisiana or Florida from a few years ago, that dro...

Re: How do you feel about Legalized Marijuana?

Ask a teen, any teen, if it's easier to get marijuana or cigarettes or alcohol. I know its hard to believe but I was a teen once. I knew plenty of potheads.... I knew more smokers.... and even more that would drink. I never went to a party that didn't have lots of alcohol and cigarettes. Although n...

Re: How do you feel about Legalized Marijuana?

If weed was legalized the use would go up. No doubt in my mind about that. However I don't really have a problem with that. It would cause an increase in pay for jobs that do not allow use of Marijuana so that would be another good part. Would it? I don't see how that could be done legally if weed ...

Re: How do you feel about Legalized Marijuana?

Cigarette use in this country is down even though the addictive nature of the chemicals in them have been compared to heroin addiction. Yeah, you might want to back up a step there. If you want your ideas to be taken seriously, don't compare cigarettes and heroin. I'm not saying heroin and cigarett...

Re: How do you feel about Legalized Marijuana?

Portugal has legal marijuana, and it's use is not up, by teens or any other group. The Netherlands with decriminalized Heroin doesn't have a higher rate of use or addiction than here or before it was legal. New Zealand also doesn't have a higher instance of marijuana use with it legalized. Their use...

Re: How do you feel about Legalized Marijuana?

As long as it is only Marijuana then sure legalize it. But I draw a firm line there.... no harder drugs. I agree with you, although I voted for Gary Johnson (and his VP candidate spoke, some Judge named Gray) they are for legalizing everything. During one of the presentations they said teens are mo...

How do you feel about Legalized Marijuana?

I went to a 2 day conference this weekend in Ft. Worth for the Texas Region NORML group. NORML stands for National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws. Although I don't smoke Marijuana myself, I found the topic very enlightening and informative. Did you know Texas spends more to imprison a...

Re: Something about electric motorcycles....

It looks wicked cool, and I like not giving Big Oil any more of my quickly devaluating cash. But 100,000 miles at 40mpg times $3.50 a gallon equals $8,750.
One final thought: they never mention how much it weighs, not even on their web sight.

Re: Another Matt

Low 90's indicated or actual? Isn't it single cylinder FI? Curious cause I've ridden the piss out of kawi 250's, never been on a hunda Actual. While the European, Australian and SE Asia speedometers seem to read about 10% optimistic, the US versions as checked by GPS seem to be spot on. That top sp...

Re: Another Matt

How do you like that CBR250 so far? I like it a lot. FI, with ABS, for $4700 OTD new. And like upper 60s in mpg riding it really hard. Light and maneuverable with nice ergonomics. Very good build quality and fit for a Thai built. Kind of susceptible to wind gusts but not too bad, wind protection ju...

Another Matt

So, my name is Matt. I've have been to a couple of Bike Nights, I've picked up trash in Aledo, and I've been on a Beginner Ride, and I realized I should have joined this forum before I did any of that. I'm 42, one 11yo daughter, girlfriend, and I have a 2012 CBR250R ABS in red/white/blue. I took the...
