I explicitly warned you, Roger Stone is like Peter Sellers in the Pink Panther movies. Just unlike Seller's Clouseau he would assault a random Asian guy for no good reason. Jesus, sorry. I needed Jace's help with the costume. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DEMOCRATS WAITED UNTIL AFTER THE ELECTION BUT FINALLY VOTED TO LEGALIZE MARIJUANA Quote The effect of the MORE Act vote, insiders say, is to put pressure on the Biden administration to take executive action to limit the war on drugs, a war whose chief advocate in the Senate for many years was Biden himself. “For decades, Biden was a senator and led the charge to implement harsh and punitive drug laws during his time as [Senate] judiciary chairman,” from 1987 to 1995, said Tom Angell, the editor of Marijuana Moment, a publication focusing on marijuana policy. “During his 2020 presidential campaign, he started to evolve his position; he called for decriminalizing possession and expunging past records. That’s one reason why it’s important for Congress to pass a bill like this: The vast majority of Democrats want to see this done. The hope among advocates is that it will help speed his evolution to embracing legalization.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DEMOCRATS WAITED UNTIL AFTER THE ELECTION BUT FINALLY VOTED TO LEGALIZE MARIJUANA While I agree wholeheartedly Biden should employ whatever unilateral action he can as mentioned in that article (although it's no substitute for the provisions included in the MORE legislation), it's beyond hyperbolic to call Biden the "chief advocate" or even "leading the charge" in regards to the War on Drugs - which started in earnest (shortly) before even he was elected to the Senate.

Let's hope he does the sensible thing. Though, after a cursory brushing up on the fate of bootleggers post Prohibition, I guess many will remain locked up. In terms of international legality, I predict quite the domino effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why? Do you mean in an effort to balance widespread clemency for cannabis convicts? I think that move is too transparent and liable to piss everybody off. 3 minutes ago, Spockydog said: In terms of international legality, I predict quite the domino effect. Meh. Rescheduling isn't the same as decriminalization (let along legalization), and like Fez said the Senate ain't touching this unless the Dems sweep Georgia. Even then it isn't getting passed. I don't see an EO or two spurring mass international legalization, but hey I'm no expert on the domestic politics of other countries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t forget, thousands of draft dodgers received a mass pardon. The numbers here would dwarf that mass pardon, but it has been done. Oh, and the Confederate soldiers were mass pardoned.

DMC Posted December 5, 2020 Share Posted December 5, 2020 I've mentioned a couple times that all these rumors about Rahm Emanuel being considered for a Cabinet post may well be planted by Rahm himself. Well: Rahm Emanuel working a behind-the-scenes one-man PR pitch to make it into Joe Biden's Cabinet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
