This thread in a nutshell

Just saying that the constitution doesn't necessarily require him to enforce them either. The laws prohibiting it are unconstitutional to begin with. Whether Sessions will follow the INTENT of the constitution is the issue.

Interestingly, the constitution says absolutely NOTHING about cannabis being illegal. They had to amend it for prohibition of alcohol.

Lots of red states do have medical programs though. Florida passed theirs by 70+% and it was a critical state to his victory. Also, a considerable number of Republicans approve of legalization. (not a clear majority, but still a considerable amount). Not all Republicans are enemies of...

Trump already has enough problems and protests without going after legal cannabis industries. If he allows Sessions to lead a crackdown he might start looking at a 20% approval rating soon enough. He'll be damn near alienating the whole country in some way, shape or form if he does that. I...

Only problem is that would require congress to actually DO SOMETHING other than investigate Hillary for the 30th time.

Well the rape is taking things too far I agree, but it's common sense. If you pass out drunk around unknown people, bad things can happen to you. You might wake up with dicks drawn all over your face, or a used sex toy stuck in your mouth and the picture posted on social media.

Well, the solution is obviously not to get 'pass out drunk'.

And obstructing the pipelines won't do shit towards actually stopping this. You think blocking a couple of pipelines is gonna stop climate change while China and India have tens of thousands of coal plants chugging away? It's already WAY too late to really avoid climate change, so we might as...

The 'prohibited person' aspect of cannabis use is definitely problematic. There are no doubt millions of gun owners who use cannabis and just lied on the 4473. Even in legal states, they can still face significant charges for owning said combination of items. The only real remedy for this is...

Finally! Time to get these pipelines built and quit pandering to a bunch of econuts who think obstructing them will somehow combat climate change. http://www.cnbc.com/2017/01/24/trump-to-advance-keystone-dakota-pipelines-with-executive-order-on-tuesday-nbc.html President Donald Trump on Tuesday...

Does Trump WANT to win a second term, or does he want to make Republicans look like massive hypocrites on the 'state rights' front, and be one of the least popular 1 term presidents ever? If it's the former, he'll avoid the major 'minefield' issues such as recreational cannabis. Trump actually...

Another massively unsubstantiated paranoia thread. How about people actually wait and see what happens before running around like chicken little screaming about how the sky is falling? A crackdown on the cannabis industry would accomplish nothing other than costing the new administration...

It also depends on the ammo. Even the best suppressor won't do anything to quite the supersonic crack of a high velocity bullet. That's why some people will use subsonic bullets with their suppressed guns. You get a lower overall bullet energy, but it makes the gun much more silent.

Suppressors (not silencers) ARE a health and safety item They are even encouraged in some European countries. Unlike in the movies, they do not actually silence the gunshot. They merely tone it down from a hearing damage inducing 140+DB to a more pedestrian 100+ level. Suppressors are great at...

Pretty sure this thread is the type of thing that gets you a visit from the SS.

How else were they gonna get some paid leave? I'm sure they'll be investigated by their own department and be found not guilty after a nice vacation.

Great going DEA, ban a substance that LITERALLY doesn't get people high and only helps sick people. Was it cutting into big pharma profits too much or something? https://www.leafly.com/news/politics/new-dea-rule-says-cbd-oil-really-truly-no-joke-illegal Note: This article contains an update on...

I'm not supporting him. I'm just saying all this fear about a crackdown on the cannabis industry is a little premature. It's way down there on the list of republican priories. Sessions will probably be more preoccupied with cracking down on immigration and groups like BLM. Honestly I think...
