Drudge Retort: Red Meat for Yellow Dogs
Thursday, July 31, 2008

The U.S. should end federal penalties for Americans carrying fewer than 100 grams of marijuana, Rep. Barney Frank said Wednesday. "The vast amount of human activity ought to be none of the government's business," Frank said.

This is change I can believe in. What a waste of time, resources, and billions of dollars in enforcement and ruined lives.

Turn it into a postive, and tax it.

Withe the Bush economy the way it is, who wouldn't want to smoke a joint? And if they tax it, it might help reduce the deificit.


Ohhhh, don't bogart that joint, BuffaloBob, pass it over to me.....*high ol' grin*

legalize

its a multi-billion dollar industry

I'd be happy if they made a positive, pre-employment drug test for marijuana inconsequential. But hey, if he wants to take it all the way, I'm down like a clown.

"its a multi-billion dollar industry"

Which is part of the reason it is still illegal.

legalize it! clear out the prisons of non violent offenders.

you wanna see what an idiot these folks are read this interview...

On Tuesday, July 15, the Bush Administrations second-in-command of national drug policy visited Humboldt County as part of a California tour to scope out the state of the illegal cannabis industry. Scott Burns, deputy director of the Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP) met with county officials, participated in a sweep of grow houses in Eureka and points south, then came to Arcata.

"see what an idiot these folks" ack!

In a market driven world, it's ilegality will never trump demand. Face facts, it is a pretty harmless drug till you start fightin for it.
Let the legality deprive the criminal element of their government supported black market price levels to kill for.

Awright! Don't Bogart dat spliff-spool it over this-a-way......

""Smoked marijuana has not withstood the rigors of science -- it is not medicine and it is not safe," the DEA states on its Web site. "Legalization of marijuana, no matter how it begins, will come at the expense of our children and public safety. It will create dependency and treatment issues, and open the door to use of other drugs, impaired health, delinquent behavior, and drugged drivers."

Why should a federal agency, supported by my tax dollars, be allowed to actively support any political position. The DEA are employees of the taxpayers and are there to enforce the laws that Congress makes not to influence those laws. They are not elected and have no business expressing opinions on a taxpayer supported web site or any other official media. It is pretty obvious anyway that their only real interest in marijauna laws is their own job security. Of all of our law enforcement agencies the DEA is the most redundant and unnecessary, it costs billions and everything it does should be done by the FBI. We do not need this extra police force put there to harass Americans and protect pharmaceutical companies market.

That's exactly right. If it was legal, many smokers would just grow their own. Somebody's surrently tax-free bottom line will not tolerate that.

Plus, do you know how much of our economy is derived from seeking out, arresting, prosecuting, and incarcerating people for marijuana?

And, what would a huge segment of our population do without the self-righteous hatred of hippie potheads?

LOL... and good morning to you, chair. I'm gonna put down that donut just in case.

Next thing ya know Barney will be wanting legalized prostitution!





By the way...that was a joke. I am for legalizing both.

Seems our representative govt is representing us again.

I've only met a small handful of people that like the marijuana laws the way they are. The vast majority of us want it legalized, smokers or not.(I am not, nor is pinche mao)

Hell, lets legalize theft - and tax it! Think of the income!

States can legalize prostitution if they want but they can't legalize pot if they want. Why are the "states righters" silent on this issue???
Shouldn't states have the right to decide such things?

Think any legislators are afraid of angering the DEA???
Think the DEA would use its power to influence legislators or elections?
A police force that actively lobbies to prevent legalization of the substances which constitute that agency's reason for existing is an obvious invitation to corruption. If I had to guess I would probably choose the DEA as the most corrupt federal law enforcement agency. I doubt many of its officers are there because they wanted to protect the country. It is a needless waste of tax dollars and one more level of big brother we just don't need and should, as free citizens, resent and want eliminated.

Oh, and did I mention that the DEA is also largely ineffective, how many drug adicts can't get drugs, all agencies like the DEA do is make it more expensive. The drug cartels need the DEA and the DEA needs the drug cartels. Eliminate one and you eliminate the other.

Frank calls fer Marijuana Legislation?

Spud calls fer a massive blazefest of EPIC proportions.

* DB *

Be Well.

I'm not sure legalization is the way to go so much as 'decriminalization'. I think legalizing it only going to bring out the Hearsts and others from the 'reefer madness' era. Ya know, like all the rednecks that will drive drunk and come home to smack their wife around the double-wide but will scream that pot is the devils plant.

At least with decriminalization, you're striking a halfway point with both ends of the argument. The funds can be diverted to combating the meth epidemic and we can free up our already overflowing prisons.

If someone is caught with a joint in public, $50 fine. Nothing more. I would also have MJ moved WAY off the radar of the DEA, DOJ and local authorities.


"Hell, lets legalize theft - and tax it! Think of the income!"

That's why Haliburton moved off shore.

Frank Calls for Marijuana Legalization

Actually, I've called for it all along, but, no one's ever quoted me on it before.... oh..Barney Frank...well, in that case..blaze away, mo'fo.......

Does someone have issues defining violent crime and non violent crime? So if I sit at home and smoke a joint how do I have any effect on you? If I break into your house and take all your shit how do I have any effect on you?

"The vast amount of human activity ought to be none of the government's business," Frank said.

Does that include tobacco?

As never having smoked it, what are the benefits of POT?

Well, first the room starts spinng. You drool. You get violent and wanna rape people.

If it gets really bad, you run for preznit!

Nah. You just get kinda relaxed.

what are the benefits of POT?


It was the most prescribed remedy for a number of diseases at the turn of the 20th Century. It's both an antiemetic and analgesic.

The VA Hospital uses it in capsule form for patients undergoing chemotherapy because it's more effective, physically and monetarily, with no side adverse effects.

Aboriginal tribes used it for arthritis, aging, and menstrual cramps.

And guess what? You don't have to smoke it because the THC evaporates around 375 degrees F. So people unafraid of being charged with possession of paraphernalia use a vaporizer.

The Big Argument is that we have to keep it away from the kids. So of course we create an underground culture in which it is more accessible than alcohol to kids as early as grade school.

The War on Drugs has expanded into every federal agency. Those not involved in law enforcement get money for prevention programs. Of course Nixon started the War as a means of busting up the Anti-War activists during Vietnam.


As never having smoked it, what are the benefits of POT?

getting high

The effects of POT is not a "high", it is better described as getting Mellow. Relaxing.

ElCid

Well I can't speak for everyone but for me the benifits are

The muscle spasms decrease. Valium does the same thing but is highly adictive and you need increasing doses to acheive the same benifit.


Also the insane burning that I get on ocasion is completley ameliorated. I have heard that neurotin does the same thing but has some pretty nasty side effects so I have not tried it especialy since something natural with minimal side effects does the job perfectly.

Some times it helps with the vertigo but only when it is mild. Nothing else helps with that.

It also relaxes me which since I can not drink due to the interferon I take so that is nice.

But then again I have multiple sclerosis.

Of course the question is even if it did nothing more than relax me what would that matter to you if I did it on my own time in my own home?

"Does that include tobacco?"

Yes, and I think the busy bodies who are going to label tobacco a drug have too much time on their hands. There is real work that needs to be done get out of people's personal lives.
And I believe that even if it means agreeing with KBM on something.

marijuana is boring. legalize coke and ecstacy instead! j/k

No..Don't legalize it. I already take care of enough of you freeloaders with my tax money, You bitch about Cigarettes (even thoug i don't smoke, People can smoke if they want, and most of the smokers are the guys you see paving your roads in the heat, or Buliding something with their hands) Pot smokers are losers and big oxygen theives and a better way to clear out the prisons is electric bleachers. Barney Frank? what an Idiot, His sexual preference is more important than doing anything for the American people.

Legalize it!

Please don' criticise it!

Tobacco - The REAL gateway drug.

Every junkie I EVER talked to started out smoking CIGARETTES!!

Monstman is 100% correct.

"Turn it into a postive, and tax it."

Problem is that any idiot can pretty easily grow their own high grade pot - if not the fear of imprisonment. Yes, there would be an industry around seeds and growing supplies and the final product would sold in stores. But most the pot people would be smoking would be home grown. There would be so much of it around that it would be next to worthless. No tax and no giant windfall for corporations.

But the tobacco and alcohol companies stand to lose big bucks.

That is what this is really about.

"No..Don't legalize it. I already take care of enough of you freeloaders with my tax money"

Dumb Ass....think about how much of your tax dollar is spent catching pot smokers, arresting them, booking them, trying them, incarcerating them, putting them on probation....
And consider if you legalized it you could also TAX it.

How many of your tax dollars go to support the DEA and other state and local police agencies dedicated to drugs????

We spend billions on a problem the authorities have absolutely no intention of ever solving. It is their bread and butter, how many lawyers depend on it for a living????

Americans are Dumb!

"No tax and no giant windfall for corporations."

Baloney. We can make our own wine just as easily as we can grow pot and we don't need lights, just a closet or basement.
High quality, desirable pot would come from companies that can grow it high quality, seedless. There would be a new industry.

There would be a new industry.

And 5 minutes after the first company records a big profit you will take it all back and bitch and moan that they are employing slave labor and treating thier employees like shit, make too much money and they are buying influence from congress.

Face it Danni, there is never an upside to this.

Any tax savings realized from not funding law enforcement (this part I agree with BTW) you will never see anyway.

He's hoping the cotton mouth will soak up the truck stop gloryhole jizz...

drug war = @ssholes in power own you. they decide what you can put in your body.

The effects of POT is not a "high", it is better described as getting Mellow. Relaxing.

Posted by Buffalo_Bob at 2008-07-31 07:29 pm

To each man his own definition and perception of the meaning of "high"

"And 5 minutes after the first company records a big profit you will take it all back and bitch and moan that they are employing slave labor and treating thier employees like shit, make too much money and they are buying influence from congress."

Right Eberly, I hate all businesses because I don't want to outsource all jobs to China. When you have a real point make it but that was pathetic. I used to think you had half a brain, I am beginning to doubt that.

I hate all businesses because I don't want to outsource all jobs to China.

You just hate all the ones that make money. Especially the ones that pay low wages. A commercial pot growing farm would do both. Make a lot of money and pay low wages...probably illegal imigrants at that!!!

I know you would just love that. You are pissed because your bullshit inconsistency was just exposed.

I used to think you had half a brain, I am beginning to doubt that.

Posted by Sully at 2008-07-31 08:

People are also allowed to make their own alcohol--up to a limit. They don't because of the hassle, and ease of buying at the store.

The same would hold true for pot. The problem with growing your own is that it STINKS to high heaven, and you have to kill the males to get the best, and it turns into a hassle.

However, assuming you are right--it would still be better than wasting billions in enforcement, and ruining lives.

lets see

Frank aka hot dog

he came out once, why not twice

Frankly Frank, you're right

grass, weed, ganja, pot is a victimless crime... and its a crime because the criminal justice system profits from it.... and the drug cartels, with politicians in their pocket, like it to.

Now cocaine, that's the domain of the heaviest hitters. Best to know a Bush or North before you fuck with this.

Sully

In addition I would rather buy the quality stuff the government sold. Its patriotic.

;-)

I agree with Senator Barney Fag.....uh....Frank on this issue.

. . . fewer than 100 grams of marijuana, Rep. Barney Frank said Wednesday. . .

That's a lot of pot, they should have tried with 10, 15, or 25 grams. 100 grams is about a quarter pound. Some dickwad jesus freak is going to go find them a QP and show everyone how much every liberal thinks your kids should be able to buy from them right after they sodomize them and film it to show on youtube, then it's all over with. A QP of decent herb would last a normal person a long god damned time, you don't go to the store and buy 6 or 8 months worth of groceries, do you?

and thats why we haven't killed ourselves over politics

legalize

Barney Frank is wrong!


Every drug should be legalized. Heroin, cocaine, LSD, methamphetamine...all of them. First of all people will know that the ingredients are pharmaceutical grade and will (hopefully) adjust their dosage accordingly if they don't thats their tough luck - I don't think hospitals should have an obligation to treat or revive them. Second if they commit a crime - any crime - while high or whatever their being under the influence should not be either allowed as an excuse or as a consideration in sentencing (as far as requiring addiction treatment) just straight to prison for the crime they committed. If they want treatment they'll have to get it on their own or let those who sympathize offer it.

The only time drug possession or use should be a crime in itself is providing or attempting to provide it to a minor - and that includes minors providing it to other minors.

As far as how private business chooses to handle such a scenario will be up to them but if current practice is any indication once they hire you a majority of companies nowadays give lip service to having a "drug free workplace".

Gee, Bob...why so tense? Switch to decaf. Better yet, spark some Humboldt up and celebrate that Cheech & Chong are touring again.

They'll never legalize the cultivation and possession of marijuana. The cotton and pharmaceutical lobbies have really deep pockets.

This is why Marijuana should be illegal

Dirtbagorama

If those studies were valid, there would be more people in mental institutions than in prison.

www.drugpolicy.org

The researchers said they couldn't prove that marijuana use itself increases the risk of psychosis, a category of several disorders with schizophrenia being the most commonly known.

There could be something else about marijuana users, "like their tendency to use other drugs or certain personality traits, that could be causing the psychoses," Zammit said.

Well, fuck. I'm sold, dirtbagobama...lol

youtube doesn't allow that type of material. Other than that small gaffe, the rest of your post was just complete bullshit.

"Smoked marijuana has not withstood the rigors of science -- it is not medicine and it is not safe," the DEA states on its Web site. "Legalization of marijuana, no matter how it begins, will come at the expense of our children and public safety. It will create dependency and treatment issues, and open the door to use of other drugs, impaired health, delinquent behavior, and drugged drivers."

This is everything that is wrong with big government. This agency should be shitcanned. They sound as smart as the guy who originally convinced the government that weed should be illegal because when he tried it, he turned into a bat.. The stupid government believed this douchebag over the AMA who correctly stated that they knew of no medical reasons for making marijuana illegal.

Weed is "not safe"? In 5,000 years of recorded history of its use, not a single person has died from using it. It is physically impossible to smoke yourself to death. The only way you can die from weed is to ingest too much of it, but most people would puke before that happened and it never has.

People that believe that the government knows best, are deluded. They know what is best for DuPont (who helped finance Reefer Madness)...

Hell, lets legalize theft - and tax it! Think of the income!

Like I clearly pointed out to you in another post and you can't seem to understand is theft has a victim. A person carrying or smoking pot has NO victim and therefore should not be a crime.

It will create dependency and treatment issues, and open the door to use of other drugs, impaired health, delinquent behavior, and drugged drivers.

Right.. Because as soon as it is legalized, everyone will start smoking pot. Especially since it is so hard to find now - especially here in Oregon. That's exactly what happened when Amsterdam legalized it right? No, actually the percentage of Dutch pot smokers stayed the same. Everybody that wants to smoke pot, already is. There are fucking lunatics running this country..

It will NEVER go anywhere. What it did do was just scarce the shit out of the pharmaceutical
industry. No doubt their will be major donations from the pharmaceutical lobbiest to blunt traction concerning this bill very soon.

MJ is a threat to their profit margin.

Imagine all the people doped up on xanex, paxil and other mild calming physch drugs opting to smoke pot instead?

Marijuana has proven ability to help ease certain
eye diseases and some others. i give my vote to
politicians who approve its medicinal use but they
seem to be few. i really don't see how much power
the drug lobby has but the word "great" could be
be used.
The sad truth is that even if the drug lobby were
overcome and thinking legislation were passed most Doctors would probably not be able to stand up and
use Marijuana for fear of backlash from a long list of detractors.

"Liar. Save your faux respect."

Eberly, have it your own way. Those righties who don't like me are pathetic losers who can't stand it when they look foolish in arguments. Their ignorance and stubbornness makes it easy to make fools of them. If you consider yourself one of them be my guest.

Why in hell does everything have to be taxed, for Christ's sake???? Grow the shit in your back yard like an herb, or sell it in the produce section and pay a small sales tax.

Why in hell does everything have to be taxed

Good question.. Unfortunately, it is often the only way that you can sell freedom to fools - by putting a dollar sign on it.

Oregon has a bill in the works to legalize pot and hemp growth and use. It proposes that weed be sold in liquor stores. It is garnering a lot of attention because of the estimated $300 million per year it will bring our economy.. If that is the best we can do, I'll take it..

"People are also allowed to make their own alcohol--up to a limit. They don't because of the hassle, and ease of buying at the store."

I think that's more difficult to get right by a wide margin based on what I've seen. I knew two guys, neither of whom is very science oriented, who each grew killer stuff pretty easily. They were doing it for money and dedicated whole rooms in their houses to it. So maybe you're right. But alot of people would try it at least once.


That's a lot of pot, they should have tried with 10, 15, or 25 grams. 100 grams is about a quarter pound.

I think it was a well thought out amount. 100 grams is about the limit one can grow under one HID light at home. And it's about the amount an average smoker would consume over the period of one crop; 1 quarter ounce a week for 4 months, four months in-between crop harvests.

The problem with growing your own is that it STINKS to high heaven, and you have to kill the males to get the best, and it turns into a hassle.

One man's "stink" is another man's sweet sweet fragrance ;) Either way a carbon filter or ion filter should do the trick. Weeding out the males takes about 4 seconds. One man's "hassle" is another man's hobby. No sexism intended of course. I know a couple of fine ladies back in CO that grow the stickiest stankyiest stash around.

But the tobacco and alcohol companies stand to lose big bucks.


That is what this is really about.

Ya know ...I never even considered that...but you have a point. The liquor lobby has a big influence in DC.

MJ could be grown in a window box...or sold right out of the garden like fresh produce. I sell bundles of parsley,basil,and rosemary ....no middles man.

Frank is right on this one....


.......it costs 80,000 dollars a year to keep a pot-head in jail......

.......of the 2 million+ Americans in jail, over 1 million are there on drug charges......

.......Europe+Canada which do not jail for personal use do not have greater amounts of drug use than U.S.......

.......it's all just a waste........

LEGALIZATION OF SMOKING DICK IS BAD ENOUGH...NOW HE WANTS LEGALIZATION OF SMOKING POT....

Big Pharma and the textile business will not let this happen without a fight.
This would really liven up farmer's markets, though.

To the people saying "to many people would grow it to be profitable".

The simple answer is the same answer we have with alcohol. For personal use, sure, but for sales it needs a license.

Sure, some folks will make a hobby our of it, but I guarantee enough Americans would wanna drop by the store to pickup a 6 pack and a pack of Weedies for the weekend to make it profitable.

They found that people who used marijuana had roughly a 40 percent higher chance of developing a psychotic disorder later in life. The overall risk remains very low.

Not even counting the fact that crazies are often heavy drug users. My sister-in-law was bi-polar with psychotic tendancies before she ever touched drugs. I'm sure she still counts as a marijuana user who was bi-polar.

I do not normally agree with anything this cocksucking, taking it in the ass, boy loving, NAMBLA supporting faggot says or does. But this time I agree with him.

Posted by BiggieDan at 2008-08-01 08:48 AM

well until we overhaul the tax system completely we are stuck with it.

It should be treated just like alcohol.

You can grow so much for free but if you go over a certain amount then you would be subject to a tax.

The fact is, that just like alcohol there are some issues surrounding this drug and the taxes would go toward education and helping resolve those issues.

Theoretically.

again check out this link.

www.arcataeye.com

this guy is the second in command at the Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP). With idiots like this in charge of our Drug Control Policy you can see why we are having trouble legalizing Marijuana. They have no interest in that as that would put them out of a job.

Common sense, and something everyone should be able to get behind. It just frees up the "small" offenders. Sounds good!

Danni tells me there's nothing like a fresh batch of jenkem after Mexican night.

Both sides have some good arguements and some completely ridiculous arguements, but the bottom line is that states should decide this issue. In fact, the Federal Goverment should not be in charge of anything but making sure we have a strong military, roads between the states and maybe a few other things here and there.

Barney Frank is a fucking doorknob.

Buying Pot is not a victimless crime. Has anyone noticed all the deaths along the southern border because of the drug trade?

It's hypocritical of the weasels in congress to tax the shit out of addictive substances such as alcohol and tobacco and let them be legal but outlaw something as harmless as weed. Those of us who have smoked pot or currently smoke pot (which I don't do) know that it's not addictive, not detrimental to your health and is no big deal.

with that said, uh.. wouldn't pot be considered a problem when all you want to do is eat constantly and watch cartoons and get fatter? Just a joke.

Dennis Leary said it best when he said (and I'm paraphrasing), "pot didn't make me want to do other drugs, it made me want to build bongs out of whatever I could find."

Legalize it. Don't allow the government to tax and regulate it. They have no right. But if people want to have weed stores, the government can collect sales taxes as they do with the very very addictive substances that they currently fuck us through taxes on.

now where's that bag of cheetos...

El Cidney muttered a few rightie profundities, then said he'd never tried it (the only time I ever believed him), got several good responses and promptly disappeared.

HERMIE, I never returned because the discussion carried beyond my personal experiences. Something that never deters you from keeping diarrhea from coming from your keyboard.

You'd think that George Fag---er Bush would be on board too, if sucking a dick now and then was the qualifier.

That's a hard one to swallow, BUFF. Reminds me of the old joke...

"A man walks into a bar and orders 6 shots of tequila. The bartender asks, "Why so many buddy?" The man replies, "I'm celebrating my first blow job".

The bartender says, "Well hell, congratulations, I will give you one on the house for free."

The man says, "No thank you, if the first 6 shots don't get the taste out of my mouth one more won't make a difference." "

That Bush likes to suck dick is well documented. Do think he was just holding Jeff Gannons hands all those nights in the White House?
