Missouri just sentenced an old man to 10 years for growing.

Why toss a person in jail for wanting to grow a plant with medicinal benefits? That's some real bull shit.

Fucking terrible. The guy had a few ounces of pot..

Horrible man. He had like 4 ozs and is hardly a threat to anyone. So lame.

A fucking shame....
This belongs under the “really “ thread
A damn shame...

Land of the Free? America has the most people in prison per capita in the world.
What is sick is the fact most of them are political prisoners, because what drugs are legal or illegal is a political choice.

Yet you will get American drug users defending their great nation thereby contributing to their own oppression. Just like the Jews who supported Hitler even while their own were being gassed just too stupid to understand what is in their own best interest.

So many people locked up for things that didn’t affect anyone but themselves ...

Big difference between growing for personal use and growing to go sell it down at the local high school. It’s just a fucking shame.

I have a buddy that got 25 years for growing in Missouri. He had no priors of any kind. They nailed him to a wall. Now he is doing his time in Colorado where he can probably look out the cell window (if they have one) and see a dispensary or a warehouse grow in the distance.

Crazy man. How was he able to relocate to Colorado, was it the Feds who got him?

Ouch, so it wouldn't of mattered where he lived then right? So if he was here he'd be screwed too I'm guessing?

I really dunno, not a lawyer. Maybe ask someone in the politics section?

America is a Fascist State.

They've long since ground the Constitution under their boot heel.

Prisons for profit is just the latest guaranteed money maker for the corporate rentiers.

Wow, Never mind the Refresh button just wiped him out completely, LOL!

My post doesn't make any sense anymore since posts were deleted that were before it, and I can't delete it now. I'm not really talking to myself, haha.

Fuck that state. They've got a reputation for harsh treatment for dangerous weed users. Yeah, the old man had a prior for weed so throw the book at him and let him dye in prison for his evil ways. The scum probably still burn witches there. Hate those fucking idiots.

Like many places with extreme drug laws, you'll discover there are two justice system; one for the rich and one for everyone else.

Ya some states aren't as weed friendly for sure. The judge said I was looking at 2 years for possession of less then a gram of weed and paraphernalia in North Dakota when I got arrested driving through that shithole state. 1 year for each. Bismarck is a shitty place is all I can say. I went back to Washington and had a court appointed attorney handle it for me and just ended up just paying a fine in the end. But South Dakota is no better, and a lot of those kind of states. So I am just thankful that I'm lucky enough to be in Colorado now, growing my own shit and not worrying about it.
