Ok so he backs decriminalization for Mexico, but still, this is pretty big!
Hell Freezes Over: White House Drug Czar Backs Decriminalization | NewsLI.com

I think this deserves a solid bump!

I was thinking it might happen soon, just because the economy is fucked. The government will probably want to numb the public. But then again, decriminalization might be bad... think about all the people who grow for a living. They will be destroyed by bigger operations with bigger budgets, even if it's not a big company. And they really don't like people like us because we notice that they are stealing our money for gas and all those things.

I read about that in a newsweek article earlier today. I really like that magazine.

Listen, I hate to rain on your parade, but this is all coming in near election time. People will say and/or do anything to win the hearts and souls of EVERYONE. Please understand for a second that while he's showing Joe American he can think rational thoughts, he's also aware of several hundred costly operations going on at this very second - taking John and Suzie American out of their home, shuffling their children to D.F.A.C.S, and seizing their hard earned property and income - for growing a couple of plants in their garage.

DO NOT FEEL ANY MORE SAFE because of these meaningless headlines! This is election time and you're dealing with politicians (crooks in suits paid by your taxes)! I don't like bumming you guys out, but when marijuana is de-criminalized federally is when at least 85% of registered voters start writing their Congress persons repeatedly demanding such a move. Is this going to happen anytime soon? Well, unfortunately there are too many other things on the table with more priority at this time.

marijuana is a back-burner topic and always has been. Until the hearts and minds are influenced in the House and Senate and until a President has enough balls to put down the pen and let de-crim pass, Joe, John, and Suzie will continue their pursuit of happiness, but they will always feel uneasy and like second-rate citizens and will eventually pass on and take to the grave a little secret - and that secret is:

"Freedom's just another word for nothin left to lose!"

decriminalization and legalization is totally different.
decriminalization- will make it so u can carry up to an ounce or less and wont go to jail or fined which would keep the marijuana in the hands of dealers and such
legalization- will make it ok to grow and buy in stores. (able to grow by making u purchase a license yearly which says u can grow a certain number of plants and buy like the netherlands only 5g a day or so)

I do realize the difference, it just depends on how decriminalized it became... that was my point.

Fingers are crossed... But my breath is not held.

One small step for decriminalization and two jumps back for legalization,dam the crooked politicians and there antics to gain face with people,never trust a politician to be honest because every smile hides a bold face lie.
