Eric Holder has always had a hard on for marijuana. Back when he was US Attorney in D.C. he wanted to up the mandatory minimums (he has always been a mandatory minimum/sentencing guidleines advocate) for marijuana offenses and seriously tried to poisit that the violence in D.C. was just as much a result of marijuana as crack. And one of the things he wanted to emphasize was that law3 enforcement should go after drugh users with as much force as they go after dealers.
The guy is just a gigantic douchebag of a human being.
Obama has been talking a good game about marijuana being a low priority since he was a candidate and all the way through his first term while all along his Justice Department was going after distributors in states where weed is legal like it was the highest priority in the land.
So whether he agree siwth what Holder is doing or not he is complicit because he has done nothing to curb it.
Even as an Obama supporter, the dude is strange to me sometimes. With things like changing from 100:1 to 18:1 for coke/crack disparity(yes not anything huge but it helped easen the problem) he comes across as being harder on the more harmless drug....
I mean is it that hard to focus more attention on pills and meth?
Pills and Meth?
Nicca dem be white drugs....
A nicca can hope? Cant he?
