Kamala Harris Says ‘Nobody’ Should Be Jailed for ‘Smoking Weed,’ Despite Prosecuting Nearly 2K Marijuana Cases
Breitbart ^ | 03/15/2024

“Nobody” should go to jail for “smoking weed,” Vice President Kamala Harris said Friday, despite having prosecuted nearly 2,000 cases of marijuana possession, cultivation, or sale as California’s attorney general.

Harris’s public flip-flop is likely due to the politics of a difficult reelection campaign in which the Biden-Harris ticket is losing to former President Donald Trump in 75 percent of 2024 swing states, polling shows.

Harris condemned prosecuting those who smoke flowers while speaking at a roundtable event about cannabis reform with musician Fat Joe and Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear (D).

lol. So what?

She was following the law at the time. Was a stupid law to arrest people for possession and use in the first place.

Her job as prosecutor was probably to eliminate the competition. And let the real crooks have free reign.

Gee, that should alienate all the folks who would ordinarily vote for her because of her skin.
Rimshot!

When Kamala said “nobody” I think she was referring to Nikki Haley ;-)

Not for nothing is the current person impersonating a Vice President known by Hispanics as “Que mala” Harris. The phrase “Que mala” may be freely translated as “How AWFUL”, a fitting description.

She is half Tamil, of the people of the nation of India, and one-eighth black Jamaican, the rest being of Caucasian persuasion, yet she comes off as being “black”? And her upbringing was almost completely devoid of any understanding of the wider culture of the United States, its customs and history, as she spent her formative years residing in Canada with her mother. Now, the Canadian heritage is highly respectable, if different from the USA, but she is such a scofflaw and skeptic that perhaps she does not understand Canada either.

Ms. Bimbo is just trying justify her heavy weed smoking while prosecuting others who couldn’t afford an attorney for a defense.

The number of people sentenced to jail in the USA for ONLY smoking marijuana is probably zero.

People in jail for smoking marijuana:

(1) Pleaded down from a more serious charge.
(2) Or - Violated parole or probation.

The Yahoo article referred to in the Breitbart piece says that "it is fair to talk about Harris’ complex relationship with marijuana" and "as an attorney general, her record is much more complicated".

Its always 'complicated' whenever liberal hypocrisy is on display.

Exactly right. And certainly there are NO prisoners in federal prisons for just smoking weed.

Liberals don’t believe in absolutes. Their reality, like their ethics, can shift in the wind to accommodate whatever position or situation is at hand. Nothing they say is credible or reliable.

“Liberals don’t believe in absolutes.”

Only absolute power.

They will say anything that moves them closer to that goal.

Biden got a lot of votes from Cannibala Harris promoting marijuana legalization, possibly more votes than even from fraud. That’s the degenerate state of the nation.
