Did you ever get so high you got in a fight for some dumb reason and ended up in jail? Me neither
Ever smoke so much pot you puked your brains out and had the worst hangover for days? Me neither
Do you worry what kind of damage you've done to your liver from years of excess pot smoking? Me neither
Remember when you ended up in the hospital from marijuana poisoning? Me neither
As I see it right now, privatized prison and big pharma are the two biggest industries to lose should marijuana become legal. The prison population has grown 700% since the 1970s and is an estimated $80 BILLION dollar industry. Pharmaceutical companies raked in close to $100 BILLION.
Want to know what people will do to make sure their wallets are lined and the money train keeps flowing? Everything in their power to keep marijuana a federally illegal drug. It just pays better for them that way.
Sure doesn't make it right though..

I give zero f*#@s about MJ at this point......but in reality, folks don't go to prison for using/possession.

Oregon and California should NEVER be used as an example for anything except dumbphucktatude.
Oregon:

I guess I should've thrown a qualifier in about personal use amounts. That said...... haven't seen many folks lately with that kind of quantity that didn't also have other "products" on hand.

but in reality, folks don't go to prison for using/possession. Patricia Spottedcrow Jonathan Magbie Charles “Fred” Cundiff Paul Free Larry Duke And the list goes on and on. Federal law: Penalties for any amount of MJ(first offense), misdemeanor charge with up to 1 year incarceration and a $1,000 fine.

This is interesting. Says the 9th Circuit made a distinction between a medical cardholder buying a new gun vs. marijuana use being grounds to completely deny their 2nd amendment rights to own firearms. Apologies if this has already been posted. https://www.gunsamerica.com/blog/court-says-no-guns-medical-marijuana-users/

Would you like me to list the last 20 folks I actually arrested for MJ on the roads? Not one of them went to jail, let alone prison. $350, at most, and away they went......
There are bigger issues at hand!

Hmmm, read the thread and I'm surprised. Good thread.
Read the link I just posted up above. It's pertinent.

Did the sky fall in Oregon and Colorado yet? It fell last week when I was talking a walk. It really hurt. Messed up my hair too.
The first time I shot myself in the head...

There are bigger issues at hand! Saw the Navy put a chief away for twenty for having a little over an ounce. Reduced from W-7 to E-1, twenty years at Leavenworth, then a BCD.

Property prices are spiking in Southern OR.
If you have level ground and water rights properties are going above asking.
Wish I had planted weed instead of wine.

Our Federal threshold for prosecution is a ton. 100 Kilos for cocaine. No, guy went to trial (with the wrong judge) over simple possession of a gram or so of cannabis. Jury convicted. Sentence: 364 days county jail (max) plus mandatory 2 year D.L. suspension. This was about 8 years ago. Now Florida has a mandatory 1 year D.L. suspension for any Cont. Subs. conviction.

I was a narc for 20 years and have never seen a person jailed for a first offense of less than thirty pounds.
