AG Sessions Marijuana Task force: Dont mess with legal weed
Associated Press ^ | Aug 4, 2017

Posted on 08/04/2017 2:25:14 PM PDT by Tea Party Terrorist

WASHINGTON (AP) — The betting was that law-and-order Attorney General Jeff Sessions would come out against the legalized marijuana industry with guns blazing. But the task force Sessions assembled to find the best legal strategy is giving him no ammunition, according to documents obtained by The Associated Press.

The Task Force on Crime Reduction and Public Safety, a group of prosecutors and federal law enforcement officials, has come up with no new policy recommendations to advance the attorney general’s aggressively anti-marijuana views. The group’s report largely reiterates the current Justice Department policy on marijuana.

Had it the lawful authority to ban it in the first place?

The concept in question is called “limited government” and it would behoove you to learn all you can about that!

Delusional unsophisticated potheaded paranoia. You’re seeing things in words that are simply not there.

Ahhh....attacking the person making the argument instead of addressing the argument itself. A tactic of the left. Are you in the right place?

NOT one place in the whole of the WORD can you site one place wherein God ever sanctioned the usage of mind altering drugs/that would also include alcohol as being acceptable...

Nor the wearing of plaid shirts, nor using the internet.

Weak. Tired. Unoriginal. Uninspired.

I noticed you neglected to point out where I promote the police state. So my criticism of your words stands.

Arresting idiots for selling dope is a good way to deport “dreamers”/DACA illegals.

I assume they mean like in OR where it’s legal to grow and I assume possess. BUT growers are by law supposed to apply for a permit and get a license to grow it and follow some kinds of rules.

Of course, 90-95% (or more) of growers don’t bother to get legal and so most of the dope grown in my and adjoining counties is still illegal and the state doesn’t get it vaunted tons of tax dollars either. LE does nothing. The crime rate is sky high and going up. So many people are sorry they voted for legalizing it. The problems legalization has caused are too many to list.

I have smoked pot in the past when the THC content was very low compared to now. I have known many pot smokers over the years, and I have done research into the short and long term effects of ingesting it.

It is a dangerous drug, and those who use habitually (which AFAIK are most users) are very adversely affected, to one degree or another, and one characteristic of them is they utterly refuse to admit that there is the slightest negative affect from it or from legalizing it.

I live in a state that legalized growing it and it is causing many, many problems. Murder rate up, car crashes and thefts up, property crime up, assaults up, most growers are not permitted, 80% of the permitted dope last season had too many prohibited chemicals in it to be legally sold in this state, illegal growers steal water and pollute waterways with the large amounts of ag chemicals they use (often illegal use) in residential areas which is against zoning. Many growers are total aholes who harass neighbors and break other laws since LE isn’t going after any of the illegal growers.

There are 100 permitted growers in this county. There are AT LEAST 1000 grows in my valley alone.

And the utopian theory that if mj is legalized, other drug use will go down?? Don’t make me laugh. Meth and heroin use way up.

Genesis 1:29 God also said: See, I give you every seed-bearing plant on all the earth and every tree that has seed-bearing fruit on it to be your food.

God gave us the cannabis plant. It’s a seed baring plant.

I’m thankful to God in Heaven for this plant as it has freed me from depression & anxiety since Feb 2015.

You give good ad hummimer, bigdaddy! You give good ad humminer. :)

You must be feeling really stressed and ill-at-ease.

What’s a WeedWanker to do?

Oh wait, you know.

You are starting to feel the urge for it right now.

Yes, that urge.

That specific urge.

That nothing else in this world can help you overcome.

You cannot resist it.

You are weak for it.

You lack the freedom to deny it.

You lack the freedom to say no to it.

You cannot do it.

You cannot do.

You cannot.

There’s no use in resisting.

You have a weakness.

:)
