The feds need to target marijuana use. It's still illegal at the federal level and we shouldn't give people a pass when it comes to breaking the law. Lessen the punishment for marijuana use, but don't legalize it. The feds really need to step it up.
Whoaaaaaaaaaa duuuuuuuuuuuude
I see what you did there...Whoaaaaaaaaaa duuuuuuuuuuuude
They're abusing state law by giving a prescription to literally anyone who asks for one.
Doctors are already doing this with all kinds of drugs. It's just that cannabis has a stigma surrounding it that it's getting cracked down on.
Why don't we also crack down on the drug dealing doctors and their pharmaceutical industry kickbacks while we're at it?
Total hypocrisy, and cannabis never killed anyone.
They're abusing state law by giving a prescription to literally anyone who asks for one. Pretty sure that's not what Obama, or the state of California for that matter, had in mind.
So the federal government should take an interest in how a particular state enforces its particular laws? This seems to be a rather unique position for a Con.
Whoops, its a moral/culture issue, so per the Con handbook, Fed law trumps state law on matters of morality. Sorry, I was confused.

I wonder if they sacked legitimate caregiver grow-ops. (by the wording of the article it appears thats exactly what they targeted and all they targeted[and also the dispensaries], but you can be sure with the news and what really happened.) If so I feel very sorry for all the people who (for whatever reason) cant grow for themselves, and are about to miss out on their dued part of the crop. Go through the government to get approved then have the government storm in and take it all away. Totally hypocritical in nautre.
I've spoken to someone in the business out there. Essentially, the Feds had previously made some gentle suggestions about where not to set up shop (near parks, schools, or inside town limits). The operations getting pinched by the Feds are primarily those that ignored those suggestions or have evolved into chains or conglomerates (i.e. making "too much") or have blatantly flouted the rules regarding transportation and storage.
weird how the Fed starts going after some of the operations when they get " too big"... but bend over backwards protecting other industries that get "too big".
"instead of 'too big to fail", it's " we'll make you fail for getting too big"..( with no discernible standard for what "too big" entails)
to me, it's not in he federal government's interest to worry about where these operations set up... those standards are for local communities to decide ( using zoning regs as their weapon)
as for transportation and storage, I think that's the state domain as well... up until products wander into the realm of interstate commerce.
Here's another angle maybe some of you are not thinking about. What other countries out there in the "developed" world, allow the use of this stuff? Amsterdam not included, lol. How much would a private citizen be allowed to have and store? Would a rpivate citizen be allowed to grow their own? If so, i want to be able to legally brew my own moonshine. But aside from that...look at how the US treats other countries that are known drug suppliers to this country. How then, would other countries treat us, because we would, essentially, become a supplier, whether we set out to or not. By us legalizing it, we would, in essence, be forcing other countries to do so as well, in the long run. Making them have more reason to have disdain for the US, since it is portrayed as an imperialistic country that likes to have authoritarian control over it's own citizens, as well as those of other countries.
Now, I'm not saying this is a valid reason NOT to legalize pot, or any other drug. Just saying it's something to think about.

Given your posting record (the depth of its content), it is probably not a very good idea to stereotype a particular demographic in respect to being cognitively delayed.rof
Whoaaaah Duuuude.....
Your avatar is tripppyyyyYyYy...
IOW: What other countries out there in the "developed" world, allow the use of this stuff?... not counting the one that disproves the point I'm about to make. :lol:What other countries out there in the "developed" world, allow the use of this stuff? Amsterdam not included, lol.
We never do.Did we learn NOTHING from prohibition?????
