I haven't even touched this thread, but just looking at this page, it needs an enforcer. Tonight I'll get stoned and read the whole thread. I bring muscle to a thread and always straighten everyone out. You guys need to get off the streets and stay home tonight.

Colorado U.S. Attorney Bob Troyer said his office has "already been guided by these principles in marijuana prosecutions — focusing in particular on identifying and prosecuting those who create the greatest safety threats to our communities around the state."

In other words, much as it would like to, the legal system can't kill all the American people (the rich would lose their profits and become poor), so they're selective, destroying the lives of only leaders (sellers). But that policy must not be the true policy, since 100 hundred million (out of a U.S. population of 300 million, which includes 100 million adult men) have been arrested for marijuana. (25 million arrests for LSD. 1 out of 4 men.)

The previous Justice Department policy, which was laid out in a 2013 memo from the deputy attorney general at the time, James Cole, said federal prosecutions would focus on cases of peddling pot to minors, selling marijuana across state borders or growing pot on federal land, or when it involved gangs or organized crime.

while Sessions gave permission to prosecute marijuana cases, a Justice Department official stressed that he did not explicitly call for that. Nor did Sessions say federal prosecutors should now go after the industry.

It's only voluntary for prosecutors? Each prosecutor chooses sides, causing patchwork enforcement? Will offenders just cross a jurisdiction border line to change prosecutors?

I could totally see them getting the names of people who have purchased marijuana in legal states and ticketing every single one of them.

There would be a lot of “fuck you”s, some “uh oh honey we better pay it”s, and a whole lot of “I forgot where I put my wallet”s... If you catch my drift.

No, he just thinks that marijuana consumers are heathens, and that drinking an excess of alcohol is a much better solution.

I’d venture a guess that he is actually very pro states rights regarding issues that he doesn’t sit on the other side of the fence on.
 
I for the life of me can't figure out why you guys don't get mad when state's anti gay marriage laws are over turned (properly) but this is bad.

I guess it is the equivalent of punching Nazis???

There you go, it's trade bait. And the libs will indeed trade something for this cherished vice so that it is legal federally and then it will truly be a state by state issue as to whether to put the pits in the road for the young to find or avoid.

It's hilarious when the older generation is naive enough to think that laws affect the youth's ability to get marijuana.

Thats why im siding with the hippies on this one. Maybe they will remember what it's like and side with state rights the next time the fed tries to fine me for not buying insurance.
