White House is conducting a secret war on weed

So much for Trump's promise to let the states decide - Fuckers

WASHINGTON — The White House has secretly amassed a committee of federal agencies from across the government to combat public support for marijuana and cast state legalization measures in a negative light, while attempting to portray the drug as a national threat, according to interviews with agency staff and documents obtained by BuzzFeed News.

The Marijuana Policy Coordination Committee, as it’s named in White House memos and emails, instructed 14 federal agencies and the Drug Enforcement Administration this month to submit “data demonstrating the most significant negative trends” about marijuana and the “threats” it poses to the country.

In an ironic twist, the committee complained in one memo that the narrative around marijuana is unfairly biased in favor of the drug. But rather than seek objective information, the committee’s records show it is asking officials only to portray marijuana in a negative light, regardless of what the data show.​

Nah, I ain't worried about it. No matter the volume of disinformation The Marijuana Policy Coordination Committee and Beauregard Sessions foist on the American people, legalization will continue and public support will grow.

Poll: 64 percent of Americans support legalizing marijuana

I'm one of the 64%.

I don't use drugs. I don't plan on ever using drugs. But states made it legal and the world didn't come to an end. DUI's are up some in Colorado, but freedom is not synonymous with safety. Some people just aren't going to be able to handle the responibility. Just like alcohol. Just like firearms.

But I'm not willing to penalize the 99.9% that can handle the responsibility of freedom because .1% cannot...even if I personally am not interested in partaking in that freedom.

When are you going to come to the same realization?

States have also overwhelmingly exapanded firearm freedom...and the world didn't come to an end.

Relax, Sessions will be gone soon. A lot of swamp creatures you might favor will be, too.

What the problem? It is a national issue not a state issue. You really do have an illogical obsession.

DUI's are up some in Colorado, but freedom is not synonymous with safety

You mean like gun ownership?

It doesn’t matter what a poll says. If the poll said 64% Said it was ok to shoot people in a bar, doesn’t mean we should. You people crack me up.

Conservatives will never change: ignore the facts, continue with the demagoguery and fearmongering.

This is yet another example of the authoritarian right’s fear of dissent and desire to compel conformity.
