The feds don't generally prosecute individual users, at least not individuals with less than 20g on them at a time.

Does it mean they can't, or won't? Do you know what "trap" means?

So you think the Fed is setting up to prosecute the guy hanging out at the park with a roach between his fingers?

So their chances of legalizing marijuana are...?

Are you against legalizing Marijuana?

 

[Timshel]

With 58% of the public supporting it, it might as well be a done deal. That number is only going to go higher.

Its amazing how many issues that I have long been in the minority regarding have shifted in the last couple years. Tipping point, FINALLY.

Billions in taxes will convince the lagging congress.
Gambling which is way worse, is much more wide spread than 20 years ago.
Social conservatives are going the way of the BCS.

It's possible. Right? If you think it's impossible, you're being a little naive.

I'm not talking about Heroin or hit men, I am talking about Marijuana.

Who said you were?

Silk Road was a trading emporium for marijuana and hashish, too, wasn't it?

 

[Big Money]

Are you against legalizing Marijuana?

Irrelevant.

Answer the question.

What chance does the Democrat minority in the House have of legalizing marijuana?

 

[Jarod]

It's possible. Right? If you think it's impossible, you're being a little naive.

Its possible, but HIGHLY unlikely. I know plenty of federal prosecutors who feel such prosecution is way beneath them.

 

[Jarod]

Irrelevant.

Answer the question.

What chance does the Democrat minority in the House have of legalizing marijuana?

Very little as of today, but at the rate public opinion is changing its highly likely in a few years.

Now answer my question, do you believe Marijuana should be legal?

 

[Jarod]

BM will you answer my question?

What do you mean, I don't know too much about Bitcoin, but did the currency fall apart or something?

The revived online black market Silk Road says hackers took advantage of an ongoing Bitcoin glitch to steal $2.7 million from its customers.

The underground website's anonymous administrator told users that attackers had made off with all of the funds it held in escrow.

Bitcoins are the only kind of currency accepted on the site, because they are traded electronically and are difficult to trace to individuals.

But Bitcoin accounts also lack protections that most bank accounts have, including government-backed insurance.

That means the bitcoins stolen from the Silk Road users are gone forever.

Its possible, but HIGHLY unlikely. I know plenty of federal prosecutors who feel such prosecution is way beneath them.

They also prosecute a very slim number of federal gun charges, but that doesn't slow up the Democrats' lawmaking steam a bit. Does it?

I wonder if our two investment mavens Gerud and Chickenspin had Bitcoin investments in Silk Road...
