All these people in FR are interested in the Constitution being followed, and for laws to be proportionate. Equating pot with heroin is stupid and failes the proportionality test. Who's doing that? There are degrees to such things. That's only reasonable. And neither are as bad as ricin. We have to draw lines, though, like it or not.
Back to work.

Who's doing that? The feds, for one, by placing pot on the same schedule as heroin. And by drafting laws that treat pot and heroin in the same manner.
Back to school...

The difference between the three substances and weed is that those three substances have no other purpose but to harm others. Weed smokers only harm themselves.
