Weird how once the potheads got the crap “legalized”, we don’t hear anymore bull**** about “medical” marijuana. That whole thing was a joke and the dorks in this country fell for it. Whatever happened to that “legalize it and tax the hell out of it!” bull****. LOL! What a farce.
Absent-minded er absentee ballots, free inside?
Obama will throw his own voters under the bus, just to get into a pissing contest between state and federal law. Why should anyone in DC give a Sh!t if someone in Colorado smokes a joint, nothing but a power trip.
Resurrecting the Choom Gang?
It also might be the straw that breaks Obamacare, because if different states have different laws, they would not want to pay for other state's citizens getting drug treatment or other medical services more than "dry" states. This would lead to fighting such that a federal health care program would be seen as unworkable when states had their own laws affecting health.
Well, if Washington state is really adamant about allowing this law to be law of the state, they need to tell their sheriffs to kick out all federal law enforcement agents.
Feds cannot operate in counties without the approval and support of the county sheriff. Generally not used, but that’s a critical reason why you should never get rid of your county sheriff level of law enforcement. They are the top LEO of the county and nobody else has the ability to kick the feds out.
The feds would love to get rid of sheriffs because of this fact.
some law enforcement officials are so “alarmed at the prospect that marijuana users in both states could get used to flouting federal law openly,” that they “are said to be pushing for a stern response.”
Note to officials, that would be the majority of
canabis users anyway. Admittedly it’s not a good idea
to smoke in front of a LEO but state and federal laws
have NOT stopped people from growing or smoking pot.
Guess what, 0beezlebama! The fact that you were re-elected means the Constitution and thus your authority under it are no longer legitimate. The people voted for your lawlessness which is a lack of consent to the rule of law. I don’t care what you arrest me for I’m not going to fight it in a FedMob court of law. To quote Algore; You have no controlling legal authority.
Why would someone give any more of a damn about whether someone smokes a dried out plant or drinks a beer? Whether for “medical reasons” or not, who cares?
Simply put, if you dislike drugs, DON’T USE THEM.
This prohibition has FAILED(if you support it, you have failed along with it), while doing FAR more harm in the process of trying to make it work. Did we learn ANYTHING from the 1920s? It’s just history repeating, and it’s relatively recent history.
Puzzling. Most of the people in the Obama admin probably use illegal substances on a regular basis. Obama is most likely smoking a joint at this moment. He must be on some kind of drug to to the things he does.
is all this really that complicated?

Fed LEOs can enforce their own law.
State licensed pot shops will not be ‘federal’ legal.
states will stop enforcing pot lows.
I think the worst and most corrupt thing that came out of the Reagan administration were the Asset Forfeiture laws. Reminds me of an Aesop fable, the Eagle and it’s feather. Asset Forfeiture was a great idea in theory, but in the hands of Bureaucrats it becomes a tool of oppression used to leverage ourselves from our Liberties, and there will always be Bureaucrats.
I don’t like or support drug cartels. There are many recreational drugs I don’t like or care to use or care to have others use, but in the end, it’s not my business.
In the end I think it’s appropriate for the Government to limit the sale, possession and use of these types of drugs, but not prohibit in toto. Under the common welfare clause they have the right to regulate and limit the providers, the sellers and the users, but prohibit.
In the year 1915 how many federal laws were there?
I am going to look it up. I think the answer is something like 100.
If anyone knows, please post. (The fedgov is broke - why do they worry about such things.)
Obama’s a typical lib hypocrite. He doesn’t want legalized choom gangs.
Turbo-charged, Islamo-Marxist, War-on-Drugs Nanny State PING!
