With more research being done every day. People are starting to realizing the fact that cannabis is not the demonic drug from hell.

That being said, some states are still fighting to legalize marijuana. Legislations made by lawmakers in some of the states just won’t budge in their stance towards cannabis.

They don’t care about the fact that most of the people in the states want legalization. They are still just waving around theories about how cannabis is highly addictive. All these theories can be proven wrong! 

All things considered, here are the states which are most likely to legalize marijuana last (if they ever will).

Alabama

Oh, sweet home Alabama. If there is one fact about the politicians and bureaucrats in the state of Alabama, it’s that they’re truly the people to look up to if you want to stop progress.

Politicians in the state of Alabama do not seem like they are going to budge. Especially when it comes to the legalization of marijuana since they want to stick to their archaic ways. Alongside that, they are competing with each other to see who is the most stubborn when it comes to defying progress.

In spite of the few pro-cannabis lawmakers in Alabama Legislature. There is no real support among the majority of the politicians to legalize marijuana. It might just happen at some point. But that point in time is beyond the horizon and we don’t know when that will come.

Utah

Ah, yes. The Mormon majority state. Utah is the only state in the US that has a population that consists mainly of Mormons. It also happens to be the one state that’s the most conservative.

To get a better idea of how old school the lawmakers in Utah are. You should know that they passed a law which prohibits the use of cannabis back in 1915. That’s more than 20 years before the federal prohibition of cannabis in 1937.

There was some significant progress made by the legislature regarding legalizing marijuana. When they made an exception from 2014 about the use of CBD only for the people who are suffering from epilepsy. This year saw more progress with the legalization of marijuana. Utah lawmakers allowing the use of medicinal cannabis.

Sound too good to be true? That’s because it is.

The only people allowed to use cannabis? Are those suffering from terminal illnesses and have less than 6 months to live. This is them trying to destabilize the ballot. The people who advocate legalizing the use of marijuana are taking the initiative. They are aiming to make medicinal cannabis accessible for more patients. 

Idaho

Idaho is surprisingly quite a closed-minded state when it comes to its legislature and the legalization of marijuana. The fact that it has a proximity to Washington and Oregon seems to have not affected the lawmakers in Idaho.

Both of those states have gone forward with the legalization of marijuana. Marijuana is even legal for recreational use in those two states. Yet Idaho remains as one of the two states that don’t even recognize cannabis as being medicinal.

The governor Butch Otter derailed a bill that was going to allow the use of CBD, a non-psychoactive compound, to be used for the treatment of patients suffering from seizures.

Yes, it IS that bad over there.

Only in the most critical of situations should the government use their power to veto. Governor Butch over in Idaho happened to think that legalization of marijuana only for the treatment of seizures is such a situation.

Any attempts to lax the laws on cannabis have failed miserably over there and the bureaucrats do not look like they’ll budge any time soon.

Kansas

Kansas really takes the cake when it comes to absurdity (not perseverance) against all odds. The legislature of Kansas happens to be the second one of the two states in the entire US that refuse to recognize the medicinal potential of cannabis.

This is in the face of over 75% approval ratings from the people of Kansas. Legalization of marijuana, in light of all this, seems like it will be a very long time coming in the state of Kansas.

People are fighting hard for the legalization of marijuana in the state of Kansas but the lawmakers in Kansas are adamant in their stance and do not seem like they will budge.

Kansas generally has some of the harshest laws in the country. They have even been cases where parents and children have been separated because the parents were using cannabis. It does not matter to them that most cases are the medicinal use of cannabis.

Wyoming

If there is one state that does beat Utah concerning the conservative population, it is undoubtedly Wyoming. It happens to be one of the three most conservative states in the US and for good reason.

According to the polls by Gallup, Wyoming it is among the top three most conservative states which include North Dakota and Mississippi.

That being said, they did pass a bill allowing the use of CBD only for medicinal purposes but the requirements make it so inaccessible that it is not considered to be a state that has legalized marijuana for medical use.

If the state of Wyoming catches you with a few good buds. You will face a $1000 fine and even a year in the can!

If you’re not caught in possession but you’re still high, they can fine you for $750 and lock you up for 6 months.

In Conclusion

While it may seem wrong, these are the states that are worst off. The movement against the prohibition of cannabis is growing stronger every day and there will soon come a day that there will be a country-wide legalization of marijuana.

If you and your friends never thought of smoking a blunt and then hitting the closest all you can eat. Then you’ve probably not had enough to smoke.

When you’re high as a kite. Even the thought of an all you can eat buffet is something that will tantalize your taste buds.

You’ll quickly forget about all other things and just focus on getting your stomach filled and competing with your buddies as to how many slices of pizza you can scoff before one of you ends up in a food coma!!

It’s the one time you’ll be able to enjoy silence among friends while high except maybe the sounds of chewing and satisfied burps all around.

1.   Playing Video Games Stoned

Video games are the best group activity. Period. It doesn’t matter if you’re sober or not

When you smoke weed and play video games, however, things can take a turn for the surreal.

When sober neurotransmitters send signals from your brain to the rest of the body. They are interrupted so that your brain doesn’t overload with synapses overdrive.

So, guess what happens when you smoke weed?

The signals are uninterrupted so the synaptic response rate is much better. That makes for more focused thought processes. That’s more than a good enough reason to play video games when you’re high.

The games become much more immersive and take you to a whole different plane of existence.

With so many virtual reality games now at your disposal. Actually can feel what it is like to be in the game. This is something that only the brave should dabble with because VR games are already quite immersive when you’re sober.

Smoking weed and then playing video games can quickly become a scary affair so this is also the perfect opportunity to scare the bejeezus out of that lightweight buddy of yours who thinks he’s a bad mother fucker.

Go ahead and try this with your friends. You will NOT be disappointed.

1.    Smoking Weed and Cruising

Now this here is one activity which is fun but only recommended if the person behind the wheel is not as high as a kite and in complete control. Cruising in the car after smoking weed with your friends and having the speakers blasting is one hell of a way to pass the time.

When you’ve hopped into a car with all your buddies and smoked weed, you’ll never know where you’ll end up. All you’ll know is that you are going somewhere.

Oh and let’s not forget the fact that some of the most interesting conversations you will have with your friends happen to take place while you’re cruising. Why not up the adventure level by smoking weed first?

You know how they say that it’s not about the destination but about the journey? Well, you will know the true meaning of that philosophical saying when you’re out and about in the car with no destination in mind.

Just make sure that the person behind the wheel has their head screwed on straight and their eyes on the road.

Otherwise just scratch this one off the list.

1.    Smoking Weed and Watching Planet Earth II

You might have thought that there would be a mention of watching a movie or cool music videos with your buddies after smoking weed. Well, this here is much better than anything else you can watch on TV these days.

Planet Earth II is not just a documentary about nature, it is an experience that transcends the boundaries of all musical experiences and movies.

It’s an emotional rollercoaster that makes you experience what it is like to be underwater, through the jungles and amidst the vast plains. This show is as entertaining as it gets.

Nature documentaries sound quite dull. But think about it but Planet Earth II. It is so much more than just a documentary. The high tech equipment which has been used to take the shots you will see in this series is beyond comprehension.

They took years to get the shots. For example, the part where the snakes are chasing iguanas. It has to be more entertaining than the Suicide Squad movie. Now everybody loves to hate it.

Yes, the comparison was made between snakes chasing iguanas and the Suicide Squad movie and the snakes won.

The musical scoring that you can hear throughout the series is also mind-blowing. With the score composed by Hans Zimmer the legendary music compos, you can expect nothing short of an epic goosebumps session.

Animals never learned to speak so you might be wondering how a nature documentary can be an emotional rollercoaster with just the visuals. Well, Hans Zimmer’s compositions for Planet Earth II will prove you so wrong.

Imagine smoking weed with your friends and sharing the journey.
