Fuck states rights.

 

[Minstrel]

Legal pot states should secede. It's not about pot!

The one thriving American business that is highly taxed......jesus...drive it back underground and lose the revenue Sessions....he's an idiot

HA ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

Fuck Jeff Sessions. An imperious, arrogant, lying little rascist prick. Let’s see who’s sitting in his chair when Mueller gets done investigating Session’s role in the whole Russia thing. This decision on marijuana is just one more addition to the long list of things that will be reversed when the Republicans are finally tossed out of power....

Jeff Sessions, you have been a piece of shit for a long time.

To double down on wasting MORE money on this "war on drugs" is amazing to me. It's a "War" that disproportionately affects black people and that's probably the main reason that racist wants to keep it going.

Is this a good use of our tax dollars? I think NOT...

More than 60 people arrested for less than an ounce of marijuana at a Georgia house party:

You guys crack me the fuck up. Trump asking Comey to leave Flynn alone is OBSTRUCTION of justice.

Obama just deciding to leave states alone over weed was AWESOME.

You probably would have a hard time convincing me to vote for legal weed but you didn't go about it the right way.

Kudos to someone who has the balls to start a business selling something completely illegal at the federal level. One of my wife's ex employees moved to Colorado a few years ago to sell weed.

I told my wife she better hopes they don't start enforcing the law against it. Wonder how she feels today.

Can't feel bad for black people on this one...sorry.

They probably did this today because something BIG is coming this weekend.

Mueller?

You should feel bad for the white people. They smoke it more than we do...

I literally want weed smokers who don't have cancer to suffer. I literally hate them. Any color.

Change the law the right way and I won't protest.

(Edit, medical use of any legit kind is perfectly fine by me)

So then you like big government intruding in the lives of other people who aren't harming anyone with their actions?

Sounds very conservative.

It also sounds like the same argument gun owners hate.

Take out the lie about not harming others and still....no.

Until you change the 2nd amendment people can have guns I don't like.

You shouldn't be able to override federal law to take away guns or legalize weed.

Why is the law so hard for people to understand?

Dviss, if we amend the Constitution we can make anything legal or illegal. You can amend the Constitution to make Blazers games free worldwide.

You can't just stream them illegally and say you're not hurting anyone. It doesn't work that way.

I personally can decide to ignore any law I want. When the authority says I'm busted I'm busted. Be it a traffic cop or the DEA.

It was changed the right way. People voted for it.

yea suck on that Liberals, your tears taste as good as my bitterness.

because these are comparable examples? Whats the price of tea in china at the moment also?

 

[bodyman5000 and 1]

It is exactly the same concept.

Ignoring people speeding and people who rape others is the same concept. You may feel that legalized weed is better than Flynn laundering money or whatever he supposedly did. That's your choice.

 

[bodyman5000 and 1]

Uhhh, no. How hard is it to understand how federal law works?

Have Oregon vote to impeach Trump today. They would and it still wouldn't mean anything.

exactly the same thing for a 3rd grader maybe, especially when you ignore the part where Trump is asking Comney to not look something that could incriminate Trump. Same thing sure, keep deflecting

 

[riverman]

64% of the nation is pro legalization....the voters have spoken all across the country..this will not end well for Sessions...actually it didn't start well for Sessions either....clowntown

Won't end well for the republicans either.

Here's what you big government conservatives don't understand:

Sessions is one of the biggest investors in private prisons, and a HUGE majority of his inmates are marijuana "law breakers".

I like to have a puff from time to time but that’s not what really bugs me.

This society is expensive and we don’t need to pay our taxes to enforce something with few negatives. The police, the courts and jail are all very expensive. Then there’s the issue that regardless off money sending people to jail for something that doesn’t harm society will eventually actually harm society. If Job Blow was an otherwise normal 19year old but gets caught with a pound of weed he was selling to his friends then he ends up in jail, lives among real dangerous criminals, learns how to be a bad ass which is so respected in the clank. Then upon exiting the prison system X years later they are stigmatized and will have a very tough time in life. But they did learn how to be a criminal while in the big house.

Fuck that, it’s a burden on society to enforce these outdated and overly punitive laws.

Which means sessions is breaking the law using his office to further his financial gain

I love this move. It is absolutely the right thing to do. If you do not like the law that is on the books, get your Senator and Rep to change the law.

Here is the reason why;

Article II
Section 3

" he shall take Care that the Laws be faithfully executed, and shall Commission all the Officers of the United States"

Now, let your congress put the law on the record that you want enforced. Perhaps they will need to give somewhere to get what you want but that is the way it works.

Not to distract to much from this subject but immigration detainees are way up, while deportations are way down under the Trump admin. Guess where that leaves everyone who was detained?

Well, we can't let them go, they might get abortions.

One of the many problems with your analogy here is that it was not Obama who decided that. It was the Justice Department.
