Life Without Parole for Pot? 10 Worst Cases of Cruel and Unusual Punishment

[Disillusioned]

my claim is along the lines DoJ is pressured to surpass the Ogden Memo, and there is no Congrssionalpolitical will to change any fed'l law.
These isn'tany candidates on a national level calling for changing FDA Schedule 1 status for weed.
Gary Johnson ( Lib) is an exception, wants to stop many of the wars of America's Exeptionalism,on foreign soil, and senseless domestic wars...
When ppl are being denyed or impared from receiving medicine, that is "wrong"

And I respond the same way, then run on the changing of FDA Schedule 1 status for weed, if enough people want the change...

And you do know there's the medical marijuana thing right? "I wanna get high" doesn't count as needing medicine.

Well, than the inverse would be that something legal would equal something that is morally good, at least at a societal level. Now, do I need to lead you to the logical conclusion that this line of thought produces? I would certainly hope that I don't. See, just because there is a law, does not mean that it is a good law. If the law does not prevent behavior, does not prevent harm, and does unfairly target people, than it is a bad law, and any self respecting human being would say that it should be broken UNTIL it is repealed, not upheld.

You didn't read the rest of the comment did you? I have no problem with removing the law, what I have a problem with is people who decide that since they don't like the law they don't have to obey it.

Oh and unfairly targeting people doesn't include "stoners who want to get high" if they need drugs they have prescriptions for that sort of thing. It's rather the point of prescriptions, to allow people who need the drugs to get them and the people who don't not to.

and I repeat, if a law is violative of the constitution, we have a duty to ignore it.
