HAHAH...

HHAAAAHHAAAAA!....

Anybody else remember all the Biden staffers that immediately got fired for answering an internal questionnaire about marijuana use right after Biden got into office?

lmao at all the wannabe ghouls being too stupid to realize you need to lie on those (and that you probably should abstain from everything when you're taking a new job)

[-] iridaniotter@hexbear.net 50 points 2 months ago

They might reclassify it to class 3 which mind you somehow not even alcohol is considered despite being more addictive. Truly the $2000 check of marijuana legalization

[-] BountifulEggnog@hexbear.net 26 points 2 months ago

Not enough boomers like weed or it'd be legal. Purely vibes based legal system.

[-] KoboldKomrade@hexbear.net 11 points 2 months ago

If drug scheduling were applied fairly, alcohol would be at least a 2, if not 1.

[-] chooglers@lemmy.ml 32 points 2 months ago

like schedule 3 desperate but not quite legalize desperate

[-] nat_turner_overdrive@hexbear.net 32 points 2 months ago

useless gestures are the DNC's love language

[-] KoboldKomrade@hexbear.net 12 points 2 months ago

They know Schedule 3 leaves enough wiggle room to arrest people, but they can run headlines about DRUG REFORM to impress people who don't under stand the system.

[-] the_post_of_tom_joad@hexbear.net 12 points 2 months ago

Desperate enough to make it look like they're giving us what we want. But not desperate enough to not easily be rolled back so that one it is they can rail at Republicans and campaign on how hard they tried

[-] whatup@hexbear.net 41 points 2 months ago

What a paltry attempt at reconciliation. We fucking hate you, Brandon. You were instrumental on the war on drugs and now you’re incinerating Palestinian infants while pretending to care about all the Americans whose lives you irrevocably fucked over.

[-] came_apart_at_Kmart@hexbear.net 36 points 2 months ago

when i first saw a headline yesterday about rescheduling it, i assumed it was a move to legalize federally and thought it was a cynical but "probably effective" move to appeal to the "youth" (under 50) vote and shore up support for Genocide Joe.

then i saw it was a discussion about moving it to class 3. blows vuvzela

anyway, looking shit up, it's INCREDIBLE how much the establishment still hates and fears LSD. federal laws for trafficking based on amount (i.e. if you have more than the amount listed, you are charged with trafficking and can be get up to 20 years in prison.

  • cocaine: 500 grams (more than 1 lb)
  • heroin: 100 grams (~quarter lb)
  • crack: 5 grams (~ about as much as a nickel)
  • LSD: 1 gram (a fart in the wind)
[-] the_post_of_tom_joad@hexbear.net 24 points 2 months ago

Ok but if i ever get ahold of a pound of cocaine I'm definitely going to jail for something

us-foreign-policy

yes sir these 400 grams of cocaine is just for personal use. oh that 1% of it that i mixed with baking soda?

[-] NPa@hexbear.net 19 points 2 months ago

Ok but isn't a gram of LSD like ten thousand doses tho

[-] DrJenkem@lemmy.blugatch.tube 34 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Pretty sure those dipshits weigh the paper, geltab, vial, sugar cube, etc.

Back in the day, I had friends get busted with edibles and the pigs weighed the full thing and charged them for the weight of the cookie as if the cookie was a small brick of weed.

[-] NPa@hexbear.net 10 points 2 months ago

Yeah sounds about right, I remember pigs here also charging people for the full weight of a joint instead of just the actual weed in it

[-] CptKrkIsClmbngThMntn@hexbear.net 22 points 2 months ago

Yes, but hardly anyone actually has it in powder form, so I'm 99% sure law enforcement would be counting the weight of the paper blotter if they're hoping to screw someone over. They certainly have done that with cannabis - not just the nugs but any paraphernalia or full brownies will be put on the scale and they'll be charged with pounds of weed or whatever.

[-] NPa@hexbear.net 19 points 2 months ago

Drug-sensitive cops that can od from fentanyl two states over coming into contact with a gram of pure LSD crystal and immediately achieving 5-dimensional dog shooting capabilitiesdo-not-do-this

[-] Nationalgoatism@hexbear.net 6 points 2 months ago

Tagline material

[-] came_apart_at_Kmart@hexbear.net 5 points 2 months ago

absolutely. if you had/have potted plants, they weigh the entire plant, potting mix, and container.

[-] NPa@hexbear.net 2 points 2 months ago

Outdoor growing and getting slammed for 5.9722×10^24^ kg

[-] radiofreeval@hexbear.net 4 points 2 months ago

drop a few grams of coke into the ocean

get arrested for trafficking several million tons of cocaine

[-] edge@hexbear.net 35 points 2 months ago

Hmm, why couldn’t he do that three years ago? soviet-hmm

[-] emizeko@hexbear.net 25 points 2 months ago

fuck Joe Biden
death to the zionist entity

[-] Mardoniush@hexbear.net 19 points 2 months ago

Dear students: Will you stop protesting my genocide if I give you weed?

[-] BurgerPunk@hexbear.net 20 points 2 months ago

They aren't even legalizing just changing the category of narcotic

[-] Sickos@hexbear.net 14 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

waltuh No more half measures, Biden

[-] StalinStan@hexbear.net 12 points 2 months ago

This proves not voting for them works. The harder we don't vote the farther left they go.

[-] ashinadash@hexbear.net 10 points 2 months ago

So they're gonna release everyone who's been charged & indicted with possession right?

[-] EmoThugInMyPhase@hexbear.net 9 points 2 months ago

Won’t happen

[-] Thorngraff_Ironbeard@hexbear.net 9 points 2 months ago

Does this do anything for recreational weed at all?

[-] BobDole@hexbear.net 9 points 2 months ago

No, only medical l, but not current medical because the FDA has to do years of study first.

[-] Formerlyfarman@hexbear.net 3 points 2 months ago

But its more boring.
