At you thinking that Cacs won't be affected by this. When have you ever known Conservative groups and conservative politicians to ever give a fugg about Black people? They don't, but they are concerned as Hell about the stiffer penalties being pushed by Sessions; because they know that Cacs are going to get crushed by the new guidelines. No more diversion for druggies and on top of that White people are the biggest group of drug dealers.

I can't speak for his own stance, but since federal supersedes state, how would "liberal" states tell the feds to go fukk themselves?
its a matter of the federal government not having remotely close to adequate resources to police shyt like that :yeshrug:

remember when obama instructed eric holder to raid more dispensaries than george bush, right after he got elected based on hope and change? it didnt seem to hurt shyt that badly :ehh:

so what i asked dude is, what does he see happening :yeshrug:

Dude actually thinks that conservative groups concerns about the new guidelines don't have to do with White people.
From your article, an op-ed written by Rand Paul:

Mandatory minimum sentences have unfairly and disproportionately incarcerated a generation of minorities. Eric Holder, the attorney general under President Obama, issued guidelines to U.S. Attorneys that they should refrain from seeking long sentences for nonviolent drug offenders.
I agreed with him then and still do. In fact, I'm the author of a bipartisan bill with Senator Leahy to change the law on this matter. Until we pass that bill, though, the discretion on enforcement -- and the lives of many young drug offenders -- lies with the current attorney general
The attorney general's new guidelines, a reversal of a policy that was working, will accentuate the injustice in our criminal justice system. We should be treating our nation's drug epidemic for what it is -- a public health crisis, not an excuse to send people to prison and turn a mistake into a tragedy.
And make no mistake, the lives of many drug offenders are ruined the day they receive that long sentence the attorney general wants them to have.
If I told you that one out of three African-American males is forbidden by law from voting, you might think I was talking about Jim Crow 50 years ago.
Yet today, a third of African-American males are still prevented from voting, primarily because of the War on Drugs.
Sessions announcement isn't anything new. No laws have changed on scheduling and sentencing has always been up to the discretion of the attorney's handling the case and AG approval for going outside of those guidelines. Drugs have always been a white problem. However the arrests for these crimes are disproportionately black. By and large because it's easier to profile, patrol, violate, and arrest in concentrated minority areas. Especially regarding urban areas.

You're kidding right? We have nearly 3 decades of evidence of the federal government being able to enforce drug laws on citizens. These arrest disproportionately affected minorities.

Obama didn't make it his priority to heavily prosecute weed. He said as much when asked about it. Basically what it came down to was folks being, out in the open with it and it STILL BEING AGAINST FEDERAL LAW.

And it is still illegal under federal law. If sessions wants to make the shyt a priority (and it looks like he does) he can. Dude is head of federal law enforcement. He can find the resources and make it a priority. Trump found the money for his wall didn't he. ICE found the money to start cracking down. They found the resources to implement a travel ban.

Your seriously about to tell me the U.S. government doesn't have the resources with a straight face.:comeon:

:russ: at this bullshyt. jeff sessions is not going to get in front of the country and tell it that prosecuting marijuana is about to be ramped up to a main priority, AND follow through in a meaningful way. thats just :mjlol: its also politically, garbage. target number 1 is colorado. you think they're about to start raiding colorado like that? there would be damn near rioting, court standoffs, etc. hell, shyt might eve be a necessary spark in the right direction :ehh:

and as far as the last sentence of your post, of course they dont :what: you think they could make even a major dent in marijuana in 2017? :mjlol:

:russ: So it won't happen because you don't think it will. The old "I'm white and I say so".:lolbron:

And like I told you months ago about this same topic. You think these fools give a shyt about political blowback. Have you not been paying attention the last 5 months. These guys don't give a shyt.:lolbron:

And yes they could make a dent in it. They could legally destroy the entire legal weed industry. Drive that shyt back underground. And what you gonna do about it? Whine to dudes like Tom Cotton, Schuemer, and Paul Ryan how you want legal weed?:russ:
