“there was one question that ranked very high…”
Oh, the verbal irony.
At President Obama’s March 26, 2009 virtual town hall meeting, Obama announces that legalizing weed won’t improve the economy. Sorry Mr. President, but the sales of these EZ Splitz indicate to me that there’s a lot of people still blowing trees. Get that money man.
In other news, Obama sides with the RIAA, supporting possible $150,000 fines per track.
I’m starting to have mixed feelings about all this Black President ish. Let’s hope a stimulus check arrives in my mailbox soon to help sway me back.

Then what good is he?
j/k
LOL @ Macho Man’s “Rap” album in the Strays.
*DL’s “Be A Man”
That sucks.
On a different tip, Terrace Martin is dope as hell. I just got around to listening to his Gangsta Grillz and can’t stop bumping it. Major thanks to TSS, and TC specifically.
My question… is anyone holding any of that stuff untagged? I really want ‘Bounce, Rock, Skate’ without a DJ to play at parties and shiiiit.
and Amp, don’t sleep on that Macho Man shit. I bump ‘Perfect Friend’ on the regular.
i feel like i got bait & switched lol
I don’t like a few things Obama’s fingerprints are on. You want to bail out the auto makers, but then you want to increase the environmental standards far enough to hurt them financially at the same time? Do you wanna lose that bailout money to R&D that goes nowhere and still have GM go bankrupt?
Can’t just blame Obama though, gotta blame all of congress.
Nate James could have came a little better on Revival…I give it 2.5 cigs
@Be Lund
I got you my man, just gimme some time to upload..

Terrace Martin-Locke High Untagged
DJ Drama is still on the intro and in the background slightly on “Bounce, Rock, Skate” but the volume of his drops are lowered to the point where you can only hear it if you REALLY listen. The rest of the project doesn’t have him on it at all from what i remember..
Shoutout to Quik.. So sick with his flow..
I didn’t vote for this shit.
but imagine if they did legalize it…you know damn well wal-mart gonna run commercials for that shit. they gonna have the smiley face logo flyin around the store with a blunt in its mouth n shit. Its gonna run through the produce section once it catches the munchies.
Fuck, I just passed the word to my fellow quebecers…
Everybody’s damn mad…
Why leave all that money to the mob?
“My President is black, why he still kinda wack?”
For real though, new face but the same game, it’s the way of the politrickians. Cats gonna have “F*ck Obama” ish in rotation the way “F*ck Bush” used to be sooner or later.
Congress can suck a big one too.
BENJ??
BENJI-STYLEZ??
please, please tell me its DJ BENJI-
STYLEz from da PHI!!!
daaaaamn….really had everybody’s hope’s up with that title…im sittin here smokin this bleeezey (swisher with the kush cuz we in LA but piff to my NY heads) and feeling like i just got played…oh welll WE ALL SMOKIN THIS ISH NE WAY…THIS SHIT KEEPS GETTING BETTER EVERY 2 WEEKS!
aight so i read it wrong, i’m fuuucked up
I got that locke heed high totally untagged.
when i get to my other pc ill post.
still tho, considering hes a politico, playin in the sesspit that is modern politics, he still has pretty far to fall before i start doubting him proper.
not sayin we should excuse any comprimises he makes but cut the man a LITTLE slack.
still tho, not that anyone anyone really expected him to ligitimise the reefer, twould be quality to be able to spark one in front of that one pig that never cut you any slack.
Question; do you really want the first black president as the one who legalizes weed? No matter what he did going forward that would be his legacy (for better or for worse). It wouldn’t matter if he turned the economy around and found a cure for cancer. He would instantly be a caricature of himself. And personally, weed is the least of my worries given the state of this economy. And just for the record I think weed should be completely decriminalized depending on the amount your caught with.
@rdiggity; legalizing it would help the economy immensely though, especially in the states where most of it is grown (CA, OR, TN, KY)
I’m ok with this, even if it doesnt make economic sense. Still think that in the long-term the laws will change, at least on a state-by-state basis. There will be subtle shifts in policy.
Also the bottom line is, while the TSS crew may be for it, Americans in general are not. They are “growing” towards a legalization stance, but slowly. I think we’d need to hit 60-70 percent before any laws change and we are still around 40.

@patrick: depends on the source, I’ve seen studies/polls/surveys indicating anywhere from 70-85 percent of the population is in favor of decriminalization and legalization.
it is nowhere close to 70%…you are nuts!
No wonder I didn’t vote for this fool; same political bullshit. Let’s just leave billions of dollars on the table untaxed. Meanwhile, alcohol and cigarettes (which wreck havoc on our medical expenses) remain legal and readily available.
It’s 2009, everyone smokes el’s. Get with it Cogress and Mr. Prez

^ so true.
You know who had the most power in Bush’ cabinet, apart from Cheney who ran the mothafucking place?
Condi Rice, black woman.
You know who was Secretary of State before her?
Colin Powell, black soldier.
After having black people in the most powerful jobs on the planet , what made you think that having a black president was gonna be difference?
If Bush was a douchebags, black people were his #1 lieutenants.
No weed support and he’s backing the RIAA? Ayo can I take my vote back or what?
i don’t know if these are jokes or what, but does anybody really expect any president to legalize marijuana? if it happens, it’s a guarantee that more people will recreationally smoke weed. do you really think that’s a good thing? do you want to be in any kind of professional setting and people are going on weed breaks?
shit, i take that back. that mess sounds dope… a weed break.
I respect Obama he is a talented politician, President Obama seems to posse’s insightful, reasonable judgment on many issues, although in the case of marijuana prohibition laws I find Obama’s choice to answer with mocking humor to be lacking. Smoking marijuana is an easy thing to laugh about, it seems there is something about being stoned that brings a smile to people’s faces, however marijuana prohibition is not a joke. We should not be making jokes as millions of Americans are arrested for being caught on the wrong side of moral politicking, we should not laugh as we spend over 30 billion dollars a year going after Americans for smoking weed, we should not giggle and poke fun as we watch billions of dollars in tax revenue slip through our fingers each year, and should we not be jolly as thousands of people are murdered by cartels profiting from America’s moral hypocrisy. I believe there are profound latent consequences in prohibition that are not even factored in to our assessments of the effects of illegality, such as how we view the rule of law and the role of law enforcement in the community, the divisiveness between users and non users, the stigma of mental shock of incarceration. I say pot prohibition is no joke it has real costs paid for in real lives. Freedom is achieved in a country by placing responsibility in the hands of the citizen and not by the state legally enforcing morality.
