“Incredible waste of taxpayer-paid resources.”
As opposed to...?
“Im shaking my head out of disbelief that anyone would merit so much as a sideways glance for personal possession/growing these days.”
What are laws for or about?
To selectively enforce? The cops can say, well, we don’t believe in enforcing this law, so we don’t.
That’s Obama Holder abuse of power.
Every cop has discretion. It’s a beautiful thing when you don’t get stopped or ticketed for speeding, not using a turn signal, driving in the passing lane. I get what Holder is doing is questionable but the Justice Dept and every cop in America has enjoyed at least some level of discretion. It’s perfectly legitimate for local sheriffs not to enforce ridiculous gun laws but not for the A.G. to do the same to things he feels are wrong. For the record, I cant stand Holder but a little clarity is needed on this issue. Nobody has a problem with discretion until they are doing something you disagree with.
Frivolous/absurd laws should not be enforced and should be repealed regardless of who is in power. Like the “Can’t” park on a downtown city street in my town on Sunday”. And prohibition.
Control. In some cases they are about corruption.
