Mainecat Posted October 6, 2022 Author Share Posted October 6, 2022 Just now, Ez ryder said: There is no one with federal charges or doing time for simple possession or doing federal time for simple possession. Only in CA are there people doing real state time for possession and that is only under the 3 strikes deal . And that has to be a felony. So it would not be simple possession it would have had to be 1/2lb or more even in the last 30 yrs in CA. But yeah it sounds good for the lemming . How about just using your pen for decriminalization of all pot past and present no matter the amount ? Then send it thrugh the house you have the votes to do it if he really gave a fuck . But let's be honest he is just reading what he is told to read and has zero fucking idea what he just played the parrot to Good or bad?

Next question why in the last 2 yrs have the feds been going so hard on CA and CO grey market if they really just want pot crimes to be a no prosecute deal ?

Jackson said: It's fine as far as the recreational smoker goes but those that were caught with large amounts or growers of more than, say, 3 plants are traffickers who did it for profit. How many people were involved with violent crime that comes with dealing weed? Lots for sure and they need to pay a price. Up here in Canukastan we are allowed to grow 4 plants.....since it was legalized, absolutely nothing changed in society.....legalizing recreational pot should be a no brainer...focus resources on the scum that are peddling opioids.. Shit....since it's been legalized up here, even Momorider has mellowed.. Edited October 6, 2022 by Skeeter21i 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't partake any longer but know many that grow for personal use. Got no issue with that. Never said ya did... simply pointing out 3 plants is far from a commercial grow. Trust me, there isn't an empty warehouse within' 20 miles of me. Even old State building are leased for commercial grow... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Add it to the long list of “non-accomplishments” since he’s been in office. Statement from President Biden on Marijuana Reform OCTOBER 06, 2022•STATEMENTS AND RELEASES As I often said during my campaign for President, no one should be in jail just for using or possessing marijuana. Sending people to prison for possessing marijuana has upended too many lives and incarcerated people for conduct that many states no longer prohibit. Criminal records for marijuana possession have also imposed needless barriers to employment, housing, and educational opportunities. And while white and Black and brown people use marijuana at similar rates, Black and brown people have been arrested, prosecuted, and convicted at disproportionate rates. Today, I am announcing three steps that I am taking to end this failed approach. First, I am announcing a pardon of all prior Federal offenses of simple possession of marijuana. I have directed the Attorney General to develop an administrative process for the issuance of certificates of pardon to eligible individuals. There are thousands of people who have prior Federal convictions for marijuana possession, who may be denied employment, housing, or educational opportunities as a result. My action will help relieve the collateral consequences arising from these convictions. Second, I am urging all Governors to do the same with regard to state offenses. Just as no one should be in a Federal prison solely due to the possession of marijuana, no one should be in a local jail or state prison for that reason, either. Third, I am asking the Secretary of Health and Human Services and the Attorney General to initiate the administrative process to review expeditiously how marijuana is scheduled under federal law. Federal law currently classifies marijuana in Schedule I of the Controlled Substances Act, the classification meant for the most dangerous substances. This is the same schedule as for heroin and LSD, and even higher than the classification of fentanyl and methamphetamine – the drugs that are driving our overdose epidemic. Finally, even as federal and state regulation of marijuana changes, important limitations on trafficking, marketing, and under-age sales should stay in place. Too many lives have been upended because of our failed approach to marijuana. It’s time that we right these wrongs. https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/statements-releases/2022/10/06/statement-from-president-biden-on-marijuana-reform/ Please tell me how many people are in federal prison for a simple marijuana offense...you got gut hooked by your own team.

Doug Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 How did Robert Hunter Biden, son of Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden, escape a cocaine charge in 2016 in Yavapai County, where even medical marijuana patients get busted for possessing marijuana? At first glance, it seems Biden might have gotten a political pass after he returned a rental car in Prescott on October 27, 2016. The car contained a pipe with cocaine residue and a small amount of a white, powdery substance. After all, Prescott, a northern Arizona town of about 42,000 people, is the county seat of Yavapai County, home to County Attorney Sheila Polk, the state's foremost pot prohibitionist. In office since 2000, Polk led a successful campaign to defeat a legalization measure in 2016. She encouraged police to write up felony charges on people in possession only of cannabidiol (CBD), a hemp compound that doesn't get people high. And her penchant for locking up medical marijuana patients has resulted in a pending state Supreme Court decision over the legality of cannabis resin extracts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
