    Ah... being black means they resist arrest due to skin color. I didn't know that. Is that your unfounded opinion?
    Got it.

    Did you think that was clever?

    I rarely watch cable news of any kind.

    Care to back up your claim?

    Nope, their skin color doesn't make 'em do anything. There is a culture in the black community starting with absent fathers - important to respecting authority. What is your theory on why blacks resist arrest at such a high level?

    Sure - and clearly when you have hundreds of rival gangs all over the nation fighting over a piece of the underground economy created by this bad legislation - Guns are going to be a factor - in this case using those guns for violent purposes.

    So lets have liberal gun laws - in the gangland we created - and see what happens.

    Gun laws don't seem to make much difference to the gangs running the supply of drugs. If you are in the drug business with any weight guns are a necessary tool.

    Indeed they are a necessary tool - and you are correct that laws have not stopped the drug trade.

    Legalize pot and you get rid all this pot related crime - turn 40 million people from criminals into law abiding citizens (thats regular users - more than 100 million if you include the occasional user and the ones who tried it once and inhaled) .

    This frame of reference puts the absurdity of this law into social, legal, and constitutional perspective.

    Its simple.. The Federal Government can not legalize weed.. This has been discussed with you countless times.

    Our Federal laws mirror obligations to UN Treaties on the matter.

    Absent fathers make people to resist arrest.... lol. What a nonsense.
    While we all know there is a passionate culture of the white community to "dominate" the black community.
    If that low life of a Donald wasn't a draft dodger, he would have enjoyed apartheid rule in the US army.
    He was raised up in a white society where apartheid rule was perfectly fine.. and practiced by the US government.
    That's a FACT.

    You have not discussed this with me ever - never mind - "countless times".

    That aside - your argument is abject nonsense. Canada was tied to the same treaties and they legalized it - and since when have we paid much attention to our UN obligations ?

    Regardless - we would do as other nations do and decriminalize small amounts for possession - as Germany does - another signatory to the same treaty .. and various other variations.

    Your argument is thus bunk on many levels. Our current laws are draconian - and the UN is not an obstacle - and the treaty (one which we put forward) - we can easily rescind - with all other nations clapping loudly since we are the nation in standing in the way.

    We already have legalized pot in some places but I don't think it has actually eliminated the criminal element involved. There is an area in California that is known to be dangerous to get involved with, it's not like hiring out to grow lettuce or pick fruit.

    I have never tried it even once but it seems to me it's sort of pointless if you don't inhale.

    Okay you think Donald is sweet, got it. But you ducked my question. Why do you believe blacks resist arrest at such an incredibly high percentage?

    The Al Capone's did not disappear immediately after prohibition either - but obviously - all those people buying from the dispensers are not buying from the gangs .. and we do not have to worry about jailing 40 million people for smoking pot.

    The simple relationship that drug companies are involved, is the high number of drug abusers start out on perception drugs. Doctors with scripts for them like candy, America gets hooked and the cycle begins. Firearms is just a median of exchange for the drug suppliers is the south and cash for drugs from the Orient.
    Guns are used like cash for drugs. There's an entire sub culture That moves drugs and guns but seldom uses either themselves.

    Gun makers Love this scheme because the turnover is so much. New guns to legal buyers then on to the Private secondary sales and eventually, like minted money, theY become .the drug purchasing commodity. Reagan took advantage of it.

    Ha ha. There’s an entire line of edibles and salves that literaly put crap like many over the counter drugs like sleeping pills and pain relievers to shame. Barbiturates, the scourge of drug dependency could be side stepped completely for many.

    Treatments for symptoms of neurological disorders like epilepsy Allow thousands to live normal lives without the dangerous side effects make prescription marijuana the treatment of choice. Only recently have a few conservatives come around to its medicinal Practicality. They are getting there. Eventually it will be completely legal and over the counter in non Inhaled form and doubters will wonder then...” wtf was all the problem” . Imo,it has a chance to free many from barbiturate drug dependency if it wasn’t for the ignorance of many on the right of it’s totally practical uses.

    The worse side effect when smoked recreationally is, it makes people want to order pizza then curl up on a sofa for a good nap. None of the BS of rage inducing alcohol or dependency makes it the recreational drug of choice for people who want to avoid cancer and cirrhosis of the liver.

    No, the worst side effect is your ass gets thrown in jail because it's illegal. I'm very familiar with the various 'side effects' that come with serious marijuana use.

    Doesn’t sound like it. I support medical use under a prescription, no more. That’s what I was pointing out. You’re so call serious use seems to be restricted to illegal and uncontrolled smoking. It has the some of the same problems as illegal alcohol from uninspected private alcohol production used to.....all stemming from impurities and ignorance.

    Meth and marijuana are totally different. 33 states have legalized Pot for medicinal purposes and 15 maybe legal for recreational used by the end of this year. Cigarettes have NO medicinal advantages, is highly cancerous and yet is sold “ recreationally”

    Subjectively Yes, many cops I’ve stayed in contact with think it’s ridiculous marijuana is illegal when alcohol is a huge factor in auto carnage, family problems Resulting in arrests arrests and dysfunctional families that few if anything else rivals....the polls aren’t definitive, but it’s about 50/50 now and increasing imo.

    Btw,
    https://mentalhealthdaily.com/2014/03/03/alcohol-vs-marijuana-driving-under-the-influence/

    Driving under the influence should be penalized regardless of source. But, while alcohol often elicits anger and rage and erratic behavior when driving , the pot head who still has more of his wits will more often drive too slowly and not proceed when the light turns green rather then run the a red light.

    Pot and meth are different? Really? If you really were a cop how many kids did you catch with marijuana and tell them that's ok, you guys just go on and enjoy your evening.
