You're misunderstanding, or misstating my point.

I'm not saying "throwing the book" at everyone. I'm saying at political enemies.
You say the feds don't prosecute simple possession in the general case. OK, I would likely go along with that.

You think they wouldn't prosecute Rush Limbaugh with a joint, given the chance?

Yeah I think it was more me trying to make a point of my own, though I did use your language so I guess it's fair to assume I was making a statement in support of some point you had previously made.

No, i don't think they would prosecute rush limbaugh if they had evidence he was in possession of marijuana. That's probably ridiculous.

A more reasonable concern would be some future administration responding to anti-weed lobbyists with prosecution generally if enough states start to legalize weed. The current administration has made statements suggesting that they wouldn't, and haven't so far...

Speaking of being a sheep, can you think for yourself troll?
Whatsa matter you mad cause someone in this thread is supporting what I said and he criticizes you correctly?
Call it what you want, the US is a nation of laws and without these laws there would be rampant anarchy. Don't like a law do your part and vote for representatives that support your points of view as well as write them. '

If you choose to violate a law don't be surprised when your held accountable for such but don't look to me for the feel bad for you. I will be nice enough to tell you sympathy can be found between shit and syphilis in the dictionary though.

THank you for reinforcing my idea on what needs to happen starting in Texas once the Russians get tired of US bs.....

LMAO!!!! The troll boy keeps on trolling. Wonder how soon before your next ban starts.

The problem is, what about the next administration?

It's still illegal. Obama's statement isn't even binding to himself, let alone the next president.

LMAO!!! You're so dishonest no one in the forum believes anything you say.

I'm sure sooner rather than later your trolling and disruptive behavior will result in you being banned.

Keep on believing that.

Btw I take it personal when someone says im dishonest. Care to point out any of my dishonesty or are you talking out of your steer ass?

hmm?
 
Well, I would also wonder who is looking after the kids if/when the parents are high on pot?

But I am thinking of the states where pot is legal, not necessarily people using medically.

Is that a stupid question?

Who would be watching the kids when the parents are "high" on legally obtained opiates which are often prescribed for the same thing that MMJ is? Who would be watching the kids when the parents are on mild altering substances that are given out like candy? Who watches the kids if the parents have a glass of wine with their dinner?
 
People choose to commit federal crimes and then complain when the government steps in to protect the children? Problem not found.

The Federal government didn't take the child the state government, in which this is not a crime, took the child.

Intelligence in your reply not found.
 
The Texan (Former Virginian) is not anti-pot, just pro-law. When the federal laws concerning marijuana are changed I will still be pro-law.

I guess that would make you pretty anti-states rights then as well, correct? It must be because the Feds could always pass a law that saying whatever any state is doing is illegal and your statement would apply. Personally, I have always been a rather big supporter of states rights, at least on most subjects and this is one of them.
 
No, I've learned over the years choose my battles wisely. I write my representatives when I feel something needs to be changed and vote against those who do not support the things I considered to be just and worthwhile.

I'm sure you support the laws that benefit you and your family.

While I agree 100% with the above post, that doesn't mean you can't have an opinion on a law being "right" or just or reasonable, regardless of how it may or may not benefit you and your family.

I am not a pot head but frankly I can't think of a single reason why recreational pot should be anymore illegal than alcohol. Hell from what I have read alcohol should be under much more scrutiny. Furthermore, I believe in true blue freedom and I believe that we own our bodies. I do not believe that the government owns our bodies. With that simple belief in mind I must believe that we should be free to put in our own bodies what we wish.

Same thing with prostitution, as the late George Carlin said "selling is legal and fucking is legal......".
 

Oh, please. What r Wang describes as "poisoned" is merely "intoxicated". He clearly has his own ideological axe to grind.

There is no practical lethal dose for cannabis, nor have any permanent effects ever been observed by honest researchers.

Child poisoning by tobacco is common, and potentially lethal-

As is poisoning by alcohol, prescription & otc drugs, along with toxic ornamental plants.

Take it up with the Doctors as it's their determination and words.

You mean with Dr Wang, as in singular, and with imprecise language wrt what actually constitutes a potentially life threatening exposure and what does not. When children present the symptoms of cannabis ingestion with no other information, the presumption is that they may have been "poisoned". Once it has been determined that cannabis is the cause, it's entirely obvious that the situation is not life threatening. Even Dr Wang knows that, despite his political agenda. He and his fellow travelers will tell us otherwise, knowingly engaging in lies.

Yawn. Obviously, the federal govt has chosen not to enforce federal law as it applies to state legal MMJ possession & truly non-profit caregivers. It's been that way since 1996. There is no indication that the Greens are anything else, rendering your point moot.

Just as obviously, you likely voted for GWB, twice, and he clearly allowed for that to happen. You probably approve of his invocation of a Civil War era banking statute to prevent state banking regulators from interfering in the looting spree of the Ownership Society, too.

I mean, it's the law, right?

"The Law" is littered with hundreds of statutes that are not enforced, meaning that they are "no longer in effect". Like it or not, that's what's happening wrt cannabis

Guess you missed the part where it said Wang's team as in more than one.
 
I'm sure a judge would listen to your explanation just before he decides the punshment.

Should something big in my lifetime happen that I absolutely would not comply with, and was confronted for it, all the more reason to never allow it to come before a judge.

Something like making my firearms illegal, or my non eco friendly cars illegal, yeah stuff like that? My answer is Fuck. You.

Why would I give a shit about consequences if the things I've enjoyed all my life are going to be taken from me anyway? I'd rather be found lying in a bed of brass than powerless in a jail cell.

What ever happened to live and let live? There is an unhealthy obsession in this nation with what other people should or shouldn't be allowed to own/have/use/do. Its disgusting.

Imagine if we transpose this guy to the past. For sure he will be a big supporter of the Fugitive Slave Act.
