225 criminal suspects to walk free amongst our children as prosecutors say there is 'no point' locki - Polidicks

[url]http://www.globalpost.com/dispatch/news/regions/americas/united-states/121110/washington-counties-drop-marijuana-possession-cases[/url] [quote=GlobalPost]Washington's two most populous counties have dropped 225 pending possession cases in the wake of the state's legalization of marijuana. The state's I-502 initiative, which was voted into effect on Tuesday, makes it legal to possess one ounce or less of weed. “Although the effective date of I-502 is not until Dec. 6, there is no point in continuing to seek criminal penalties for conduct that will be legal next month,” said Dan Satterberg, prosecutor of King County, the state's largest — which includes Seattle, the Seattle Post-Intelligencer reported. "I think when the people voted to change the policy, they weren't focused on when the effective date of the new policy would be. They spoke loudly and clearly that we should not treat small amounts of marijuana as an offense," Satterberg added. King County Sheriff Steve Strachan subsequently directed his deputies not to arrest or request charges against people found carrying an ounce or less. Pierce County Prosecutor Mark Lindquist also announced he would dismiss over 40 cases in which simple marijuana possession was the only offense, the Seattle Times reported. Those connected to other charges, however, would continue. Washington's marijuana initiative also allows for a system that will allow licenses to grow and sell weed in shops, the Associated Press reported. Colorado also legalized recreational use of marijuana on election day; a similar measure was defeated in Oregon.[/quote] Outrageous. 100% of people who try weed die at some point in their life.

I thought it would take much longer before even a single place in the US legalized it. Actually reading about cases being dropped seems weird, feels like I suddenly jumped into the future.

I thought they legalised it in California and then re-illegalised it a couple of years back?

[QUOTE=Maloof?;38405353]I thought they legalised it in California and then re-illegalised it a couple of years back?[/QUOTE] No. They legalized it for medical purposes and then the federal government has been giving us a hard time since.

i love it when people say "amongst our children" as if 90% of a country's population was comprised of little kids who shit hard in their kid diapers
