Didn't they already do this to another person?
"quit saying we unjustly raid homes or we'll unjustly raid your home"
Good job DEA, we don't want those junkies in our streets. They should put maximum penality for anyone possesing any quanity of marijuana, let them learn what they have done. /very serious post
Eh what is this, oh DEAr.
idk about the DEA anymore
too many DEA jokes... :saddowns:
The thing is, the federal government doesn't recognize the state's legalization of marijuana for medicinal purposes, until it isn't classified as an illegal narcotic, nothing will change.

[QUOTE=Mindtwistah;23285521]Agreed, they're a waste of tax-money. 27 billion dollars have been spent on the War on Drugs [B]this year, [/B]trillions of dollars in total. Imagine what else could be done with that money[B]. If we had spent that on NASA, we'd be mining asteroids and setting up Mars Bases by now.[/B][/QUOTE] lol no
[QUOTE=sonicrjk;23327475]lol no[/QUOTE] an exaggeration but honestly those billions of dollars wasted on this stupid war would have gone to better use if we used them to wipe our own ass. seriously what a god damned waste of money, do you know what $50 billion dollars can fund for shit like public services and education.
Pro, con, progress, congress. Why americans don't do anything about this beats me as a european.

Lmao, they must of had a reason. They don't just show up too the guys house and say "knock knock" and raid the house. There is a process to raiding a house. They have to have a warrant, which requires evidence or probable cause, a judge has to issue that warrant. Surely something else was going on that that this article wasn't sharing. Remember folks, all news has a bias and they're trying to promote some sort of belief or idea. The fact the source is from [B][url]http://www.tokeofthetown.com[/url][/B] says enough (That site isn't bias at all /sarcasm.) If this was a bullshit raid then this guy should be released, but if it was done properly and this guy was doing something people need to shut up.
Technically it's still illegal to grow marijuana.
So what the fuck does the DEA want MMJ users to do? Imagine if the way MMJ works right now was with anything else, for instance: What if smoking cigarettes was legal on the state level, but illegal on the federal level, would we have FBI agents just running around smacking cigarettes out of peoples hands and arresting them? No, because it's fucking stupid to allow something on a state level but disallow on a federal level. I don't understand why government laws can contradict themselves like that.

A raid can't be conducted if there is no evidence linking him to illegal actions.

Medical marijuana cannot be sold for profit, which many people are doing anyway.
