Prohibition of fentanyl is alittle different. it’s a roll of the dice if it’s addiction or death first, but end result is the same I meant prohibition of weed, sorry should have been clearer. There’s be no need to worry about tainted weed if the potheads could buy it from legitimate sources like in the legal states. I'm not sure how many "potheads" could afford $7-800.00 worth of pot you could hold in the palm of one hand...which is what you get with pot stores and legitimate sources. The government isn't going to legalize anything they cannot make a profit off. What are you getting that fits in your hand that's cannabis and costs $700-$800 ? you can buy an ounce for $180 including tax https://weedmaps.com/cartOrder summary 1oz *PLATINUM SHELF* Bubble Butt 22.7% Subtotal $143.43 Est. excise tax $36.57 Est. total $180.00

You've argued this for years. Why in the world are you shocked? Some hunters partake. It's no mystery.

Why would you think hunters are different from the general population? That's a silly notion. You do know you can buy a firearm with no 4473. Heck, you dont even have to buy a firearm.

There were some pending court cases involving the subject but I haven’t kept up with them because I don’t enforce the GCA anymore and I’m not a stoner.

Justice Department formally moves to reclassify marijuana https://finance.yahoo.com/news/just...eclassify-170043305.html?.tsrc=fin-notifThe Justice Department on Thursday formally moved to reclassify marijuana as a less dangerous drug in a historic shift in generations of U.S. drug policy. A proposed rule sent to the federal register recognizes the medical uses of cannabis and acknowledges it has less potential for abuse than some of the nation’s most dangerous drugs. The plan approved by Attorney General Merrick Garland does not legalize marijuana outright for recreational use. The Drug Enforcement Administration will take public comment on the proposal to move marijuana away from its current classification as a Schedule I drug, alongside heroin and LSD. It moves pot to Schedule III, alongside ketamine and some anabolic steroids.

Schedule 1 drugs are drugs "with no currently accepted medical use and a high potential for abuse."
Seems to me alcohol is a much more appropriate Schedule 1 drug than cannabis. This 100%!! A buddy of mine has been a paramedic with one of the larger metroplex FD and he said in his 40+ years with the FD, he has NEVER worked a fatality that involved ONLY Marijuana

I don’t use drugs , alcohol or smoke anything, in school we drank beer, we were athletes and never had a desire to use marijuana.
Saying that, I’ve been around smokers and they always seemed to be happy, while the drunks wanted to fight.
It’s illegal now to drive under the influence, be it drugs or alcohol, when we hire someone they are sent in for a drug and alcohol test, we’ve had many that failed the alcohol test because of celebrating the night before because they got a job, and we’ve had many fail drug screening.
Cell phones are a huge problem, some of my grandkids are driving age, and they can’t eat supper or take a bath without their phones.
I’m not a libertarian, because I believe in checks and balances, but on the marijuana debate I can’t help but be for recreational use, I’m not going to use it, I just don’t see it being no worse than alcohol.
If they get caught driving using it they should be prosecuted, just like alcohol.
I’ve seen the news about it being laced with fentanyl, and that’s horrible.
I teach my grandkids just like I did my sons, respect the law and don’t do anything stupid.

That makes an even stronger case to legalize it and sell it regulated stores. No need for all of the tampering risks along with all of the proceeds funneled back to the cartels.

imo, the medicinal uses far outweigh the negatives.
I am all for medicinal use and have no problem with recreational, regulate it the exact same as booze and sit back and rake in the tax money.
the legal growers/sellers would have no problem with some regulations if they could use the banks/get loans/pay taxes etc. without having to worry about the feds.
dea has used this for decades to generate income from the big busts, little guys just got some time in the pen and out again.
