(4,581 posts)I'm not, especially when the fedz themselves have been and continue to grow and supply MMJ to patients while busting state operations. While prohibition has been tried and fucking FAILED as a Constitutional Amendment, I do not want to hear from anyone about anything relating even tangentially negative to cannabis until they tell why they aren't in favor of banning alcohol and tobacco as the Schedule I substances they so richly deserve to be. The Russian Roulette argument does not hold water. It means we leave one bullet in the gun. Take the damn bullet out of the gun! Or, at least stop making the false equivalency between alcohol and cannabis. Their proposed scheduling would only be equivalent due to the narcs' ridiculous "attempts" at labeling control. Oh, wait, maybe alcohol should be Schedule II, since it is a pretty fucking good disinfectant.
Regulation can be done by the government to many degrees, but telling the criminals of the world to have at it is unbelievably negligent and inexcusable. Drug "control," my ass. They don't even control their own talking points, but like good conservatives, narcs don't fucking care. They lie and contradict themselves as a habit.
