In reply to the discussion: Sen. Dianne Feinstein against legalizing marijuana [View all]jtuck004
(15,882 posts)1. Deliberately ignorant people holding public office. Is it a requirement?
Remember Sippy Cup from the afternoon show on MSNBC. She said that they are watching Colorado, because if the prices remain high people may put black market sources into place...
"May put"? Did she just fall off the turnip truck? Just like Feinstein suggesting that there aren't people driving impaired all around now, most of them on alchohol though, as a reason to keep up the failed war on people just buggers belief - she really thinks all the people that are smoking now aren't smoking? And that they will start when this happens? Seriously?
Demonstrating complete ignorance of reality, which I suspect is deliberate rather than just a lack of knowledge.

"The risk of people using marijuana and driving is very substantial," she said. Oh? Really?
