California could soon become the second state in the U.S. to decriminalize psychedelic drugs like magic mushrooms. Reports have detailed a Democrat-led bill headed to the State Assembly after clearing the State Senate, that argues prohibition of these drugs is outdated and they could have beneficial effects.
The bill would allow those 21 and over to possess psilocybin, the hallucinogenic component of magic mushrooms, for personal use and social sharing. The bill also covers several other substances like DMT, LSD or acid, and MDMA which is more commonly known as ecstasy.
However, an effort to add the anesthetic ketamine to the list didn’t even find support within the party amid arguments it can be used as a date rape drug.
The Democrat behind the bill said people’s lives have been transformed by the use of psychedelics. Sen. Scott Wiener (D-Calif.) said, “the war on drugs needs to end. For 50 years, we’ve taken the approach to drug use of incarcerating as many people as possible and we have had no benefit.”
Medical experts have testified during the bill’s debates, claiming psychedelics have been tested as “an extremely promising approach to a variety of mental illnesses.”
The bill bans sharing the drugs with anyone under the age of 21 or possessing substances on school grounds. While the move would remove the criminal penalty for possessing the drugs in California, it would still be illegal under federal law.
Denver became the first city to decriminalize psilocybin in May 2019, while Oregon became the first state to decriminalize small amounts of all drugs in Nov. 2020, which took effect in Feb. this year.
State narcotics officials have warned the bill’s allowance of social sharing could bring an increase of overdoses and fatalities from contaminated drugs.




Hmmm - is this any different than the state of the kalifornia socialist assembly and their DPST /fascist administration in the first place???
Not!!!!!!!!!!!!

There's no reason psilocybin, LSD and the like should be schedule 1 drugs. These drugs have low potential for addiction and have medicinal properties that need to be studied further. Making them schedule 1 inhibits researchers from learning more about them.

How is decriminalizing psychedelics fascist?

Everything is Fascist for a boy who uses the acronym DPST

He seems to be a one trick binary black or white pony ....or zebra if you will.

Decriminalizing prostitution should also be fascist then.

Psychedelics have been shown to treat depression, but there's still a ton that science does not understand about them. The bulk of research that has been done on psychedelics to date have come from people, typically not scientists, who take them illegally, and also from the FBI, who tried to use them for malicious means.

As usual, the liberals fail to grasp the effect of the drugs on the kalifornia socialist assembly.

the legislation 'under the influence' is in good part responsible for the idiotic DPST/fasicst policies and laws of kalifonria over the last few decades.

IMHO -not sorry DPST/fascists - I still can have my own opinion.

It is my opinion that people who paint with broad strokes are latent HOMO sexuals.

So yes everyone can have an opinion. How accurate they are is an entirely different matter.
