Oh, you Republican hypocrite fuckwads. That big, out of control Federal Government is a bad thing, until you can swing it like a weapon when another state does something you don't like, within their own borders. It's rare I truly side with the liberals, but right here is some weapons-grade bullshit from the conservatives. Has either of these states ever proposed a "fuck you" over Federal gun grabbing? Me thinks they probably have on that, or some other issue.
LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — Nebraska and Oklahoma are asking the U.S. Supreme Court to declare Colorado's legalization of marijuana unconstitutional. Nebraska Attorney General Jon Bruning announced Thursday that the states are seeking a court order to prevent Colorado from enforcing a measure that was approved by voters in 2012. Bruning says Oklahoma Attorney General Scott Pruitt is also a party to the lawsuit. The complaint alleges that Colorado's Amendment 64 runs afoul of federal law. View Quote |

I'm torn. On the one hand, I support legalization. On the other hand, well, it is coLOLrado. |

This is one of those rare instances where the Commerce Clause was actually supposed to be used, to stop trade and economic disputes between state governments.

As a father I'm torn between the legalization of MJ, and the true dangers that exist when it is legalized. I know it is a great drug for many health issues, that dangerous drugs are often prescribed for. But, legalization in its current form is abusive, and does nothing to regulate the drug in a manner which avoids such abuses by those that simply want to avoid the legal consequences of possession. These two states I believe are simply trying to protect their borders from a massive infusion of legalized, illegally obtained marijuana. I've seen how easy it is to get the drug in Colorado, and the increase of school age kids smoking it, because it's easier to obtain now via illegal methods; ie stealing a little of their parents legal weed, legal buyers selling it, etc...
I'm truly torn, I love cutting the head off of the cartels (which legalization won't do). I'm for legitimate use for those with health afflictions. I just hate the massive abuses by xbox commando's, thugs, hippies, and the like. I just hate that it's easier for kids to get, which has been proven in California, Washington, and Colorado. Grammar Nazi's be damned, I didn't spell or grammar check it for mistakes. |

The sob stories from all the western NE sheriffs have been hilarious
guess they can dry their tears with new MRAPs or something |
|
i know, its turble.
the Feds last week even told the Indian Tribes here they didn't care if they grew it, sold it or smoked it. most of the time the R's are their own worst enemy, |
|
Jon Bruning is probably like most other staunch conservaties in government- he is secretly a butt pirate.
|
|
The question is,is the legalization right or wrong under the law. The easy solution is to remove the federal law as it is a stretch to include it under the interstate commerance clause.
|
|
Hmmm, another way to look at is if they lose then states rights wins.

I view the Feds not enforcing drug laws the same as not enforcing immigration laws. If we allow the federal government to cherry pick what laws the want to ignore or enforce then the laws and the Constitution will become worthless. Congress needs to change the law, the Administration shouldn't be telling law enforcement to selectively ignore established law as a work around.
Wouldn't it be hypocritical for one to be against Obama's actions on immigration yet support his actions on marijuana? It's the same tactic, if he has the power to ignore one law they can ignore any of them. I'm pro-legalization but I also support these states trying to make the Feds do the job they are obligated and funded to do.

I agree in principle, but how many states have vowed to remove themselves from Federal gun laws, Obamacare, etc? How many have made declarations they will not be held to these shit laws? I'm commenting on the hypocrisy, not the Federales cherry picking enforcement. On a personal level, I'm happy when they stop enforcing nanny-state horseshit. That's very different from immigration law, IMHO.

It is a Federal law that was passed and survived judicial review. We have states violating the shit out of it, we have the Fed .Gov enforcing it in a patchwork uneven manner, we have various levels of LE seizing property belonging to companies renting property to Medical Marijuana stores, we have people buying "legal weed" and transporting it across state lines, and some people getting a slap on the wrist and others doing hard time.
Yeah I think this is an appropriate time for the Supreme Court to pull it's head out of John Roberts' asshole and do their job. Either it is illegal or it is legal, this is some BS with the law and it needs to be addressed. If you dopers do not like it lobby CONGRESS TO CHANGE THE LAW. |
