In reply to the discussion: AGGRESSIVE California U.S. Attorney Says SHE'LL KEEP PROSECUTING On Marijuana [View all]bobclark86
(1,415 posts)and pissing and moaning when you get in trouble isn't protesting. It's breaking the law. She's doing her job, to enforce the laws of the U.S. Getting caught moving a few kilos across from Mexico, growing a couple acres on your own, or opening a store selling it AND ADVERTISING IN THE PHONE BOOK ain't the way. Nullifying federal law at the state level ain't the way.
Change the federal law.
Oh, wait. Nobody in elected office with national exposure wants the law changed except Rand Paul. Good luck with that piece of shit.
Truth be told, I'm much more worried about the millions of malnourished children in America, the rising debt of pretty much everyone under the age of 30 just because they wanted to learn something and get a better job, the death of 400,000 Americans A YEAR from smoking-related illness (or the 20,000 killed a year by radon because of low housing standards), and the gassing of civilians by a desperate fucktard within Scud missile range distance of Jerusalem than about somebody being allowed to sell a plant in California. My priorities are different than yours, I apologize.
Oh, and did you REALLY just compare the mass kidnapping and forced labor of MILLIONS to being arrested for smuggling a couple pounds of banned plant across state lines? Great job dropping trou' and shitting on the memories of the slaves who were kidnapped, beaten, raped, and murdered; as well as those who fought and died to free them. Because it's not like slaves were people (they were 3/5th of a person... how much of a person is a kilo of weed?).
