It would be nice if the far left, for once, did some introspection.

281. Oh, the weed laws are changing. Believe me.

I'll give you one little example. A few years back, here in Oregon, there was a contest for state Attorney General. The "establishment" (as it was back then) candidate was a dude named Dwight Holton. He was a Democrat, at least in party affiliation, but he HATED pot. Hated medical pot, hated recreational pot. Pot, pot, pot.

So the good people of our state decided we'd had enough, and we elected a far superior candidate for Atty. General, Ellen Rosenblum, who didn't have such a hard-on, excuse the phrase, to bust pot smokers.

That election reverberated and our state Democratic party got the message. The days of putting forth these jackwits on the wrong side of the legalization question are over.

This is playing out and will play out on a National level over time.

But like I said up there, it's an actual issue- and I certainly would agree that climate change and income inequality, etc. are more important issues- but I asked you for issues not because I think "nothing is more important than pot", but because I don't think you're actually doing issue or policy or persuasion or any of it, here-- you're just railing against people you don't like.

And if that's what does it for you, hey, whatever. But it's not exactly substantive political discussion, now, is it.
