Senator Kamala Harris says a Biden-Harris administration would decriminalize marijuana and expunge marijuana use convictions: “This is no time for incrementalism ... there needs to be significant change in the design of the system.”
This doesn't speak to my personal priorities, but it's important to a good many Americans, and I'm glad to see Harris making it clear that she respects a majority of Americans' wishes on a substance we all know perfectly well not to be harmful on any significant level.
For the record, decriminalization and record expunging (on a Federal level, of course), is what the Executive can do on its own. Based on their position, it's fair to assume they would sign any legislation legalizing marijuana altogether.

Decriminalizing the sale of a drug, even weed, to children is moronic. That level of change (simply not enforcing existing laws by EO) makes no sense at all.

Where was this proposed? I live in CA, legal weed for two years. Same rules as for drinking. **** are you talking about?
I am talking about the OP's decriminalization (by EO) of (all federal) marijuana laws idea - not a state law legalizing and regulating marijuana sales to adults.
Whuh? Who suggested that it would be sold to kids?

Every time I go into a dispensary my ID is checked and I have a grey beard. Not sure where this is coming from?
And is this a thing you’re under the impression will happen? And if it is, I gotta tell ya: weed > booze. All day long.
Why not if there was no longer enforcement of (all current) marijuana laws?
It is federally illegal to sell alcohol to anyone under the age of 21. The same would apply to cannabis should a federal standard for decriminalization be enacted as there is no way any drug legalization could take place on a state level without those safeguards in place.
Yep, thanks to a law - not the lack of one. What you seem to be describing is the selective enforcement of (certain) federal marijuana laws - not decriminalization of marijuana.
Well you know, when you're hanging around in the basement with some friends and blowing a few doobs - you get ideas!Excellent news!
I guess they came up with some good ideas hiding in the basement. Maybe Trump should try it.

Btw, legalizing pot should remain a states' issue.

i had been concerned that the tRump campaign would make a surprise move in this direction to peel away votes from democratic leaning young people who are supportive of such decriminalization
