>Republican Sen. Cory Gardner of Colorado said Friday that Trump made the pledge to him in a Wednesday night conversation.
>It marked the latest flip by the president who pledged while he was campaigning to respect states that legalized marijuana but also criticized legalization and implied it should be stopped.
>Gardner has been pushing to reverse a decision made by Attorney General Jeff Sessions in January that removed prohibitions that kept federal prosecutors from pursuing cases against people who were following pot laws in states such as Colorado that have legalized the drug
>Marijuana has been fully legalized in eight states, and 24 states allow some form of marijuana use.
>”President Trump has assured me that he will support a federalism-based legislative solution to fix this states' rights issue once and for all," Gardner said in a statement.
>White House spokeswoman Sarah Huckabee Sanders said Gardner's account was accurate and the president supported states' rights in the matter.
>Gardner hopes to introduce bipartisan legislation keeping the federal government from interfering in state marijuana markets.
>Marijuana legalization advocates were ebullient.
>”We may now be seeing the light at the end of the tunnel," said Mason Tvert, who spearheaded the 2012 ballot measure legalizing recreational marijuana in Colorado. "This is one more step toward ending the irrational policy of marijuana prohibition, not only in Colorado but throughout the country.
This is so Sessions will finally become focused on the important matters
Caleb Cooper
Sessions and Trump were playing good cop, bad cop. Sessions' job is to enforce the laws on the book, not to pick and choose. This forced congress to act.

once you make it illegal for long enough you can't go back. just like with alcohol. Marijuana is a bad habit and generally turns people into leftist zombies
Sessions never did anything to go after MJ states, you fucking brainlet; whereas Obama set records for raids. They were going in with sledgehammers and taking out the fucking walls.
But it's white men who grow it well. Take NorCal or the netherlands
Connor Long
Pharma Jews wanna keep weed illegal to turn the ingredients into pills
Lincoln Bennett
I mean legal. Alcohol was impossible to make illegal because it has been a part of our culture for so long. The same might happen with marijuana. So this is an important decision. If marijuana becames legal then it WILL become a big part of culture, especially judging by how much its already promoted in popular media
Listen to this 6 minute clip. The guy testifying openly admits that they wanna keep it illegal so that pharmaceutical companies can synthetically derive singular components of weed.

>removed prohibitions that kept federal prosecutors from pursuing cases against people who were following pot laws in states such as KEK Forget the part about breaking the law. DUDE WEED
Jordan Hill
Yeah white men make the best meth too.
a few thousand white men who grow it vs the millions of young people who will start smoking it and ruin their minds

Your mate John realises that every thing he saw in the future, he WOULD MAKE HAPPEN. Its to late, ITS OVER.
Wyatt James
That is fine. Recreational drug use should have taboo. Making the whole plant legal for medicinal purposes helps remove the stigma
Luis Wilson
would be perfect if Trump just legalized it tomorrow
If I can legally grow a plant in my backyard like those guys in Afghanistan I will be a happy man
Jose Perry
Like anyone worthwhile is going to buy that trash.

Gabriel Butler
Yeah one agree that white power is a thing. Dunno about Donald though, very cross with him. Why doesn't he tell the WORLD what he knows and thinks about the truths. Let us hear Donaldpsan voice in truth of light.
Gavin Thompson
Just fucking do it, legality be damned. Nobody cares anymore.
Dabs already cost more because theyre CONCENTRATES. What you said made no sense. Trump is doing this to STIFLE the big pharma jew.
Jaxson Morales
>Charge more >When prices can be as high as $80/g Sounds Jewish.
Nicholas Diaz
making it just for ''medical purposes'' just creates an industry for getting permission to use something. If marijuana helps you sleep, or your anxiety, or whatever then thats something you can determine yourself. there's no reason to pay a doctor, then pay for a license just so you can buy the product you want. Not to mention the colossal waste of your tax dollars for making sure no one slips up and forgets to ask if they can be allowed to smoke it, or buys more than the law has decided you need. its better than the absolute waste keeping it illegal generates, but restricting it to ''medical use'' is clearly a scam so the uninvolved parties can get their beaks wet like the parasites they are.
It's about states rights vs federal government. Trump is taking the country back onto constitutional law.
Matthew Morris
Most weed today is GM. Bet you get a different buz if you go get landracer strains. Preferable Older seeds the better. Then rebreeds old strains back into the new ones. They've {GM} removed some psychoactive properties. Strains also lose genes over time.
Luke Morgan
Your a fucking idiot. An extract is THE CONCENTRATE THUS CHARGE YOU MORE YOU FUCKING PLEB. GO TO SLEEP GET SOME FUCKING REST AND EAT SOME FISH YOU CUNT..
>President's team putting final touches on mass arrest plans a year and a half in the making >President announces executive order ending federal prohibition of marijuana on 4/20 >herewego.jpg >lefties are confused but celebrate anyways >shills screech that President has betrayed us to the nogs >nogs party in the streets all day and night >next day >perp(purp) walk for HRC et al on national television >nogs too stoned to take orders from whatever weak satanist leadership is left over
pence would never back this and would maybe even ramp up enforcement
Oliver Mitchell
GENETICALLY MODIFIED? OMG merimutts. >Landracer is natural strain you cunts.
Brody Rogers
>Marijuana is a bad habit and generally turns people into leftist zombies This is true. I have never met a marijuana user that wasn't a complete piece of shit who bases their life around the drug. I've witnessed someone close to me go from not smoking it at all a year ago, to smoking it once in a great while "for muh anxiety" about six months ago, to smoking it daily and driving while high now. While it doesn't necessarily make you retarded, it sure has a knack for attracting retards. It's of no benefit to society whatsoever.

Wait, so when a Brit says GMO, they mean everything but what, heirloom strains?
Am I mistaking yo or are you mistaking me?
Nathaniel Russell
The brit is a shill. You can tell the shills in this thread because they're the ones that want to keep it illegal stifling out INDIVIDUAL LIBERTIES.
Michael Nelson
It's already been done. My dispensary sells them.
Julian Morris
PRESCRIPTION PILLS. Not oil pills retard
Dominic Lewis
zombie = mindless, its thee exact opposite your stating, bud smokers think alot.
Aaron Flores
the libs would loose thier shit if he did some quick executive orders
Samuel Moore
ANYTHING thats come outta lab yes. GMOs
Christian Jackson
I mean, I want to keep it illegal so my prices stay good and the industry doesn't shift east,flooding where the real money comes from.
Why does nobody understand this. Its Sessions' job to uphold ALL federal laws. The law is going to be changed
Robert Young
maybe but there is going to be 10 vice articles on how Trump is asctually a facist white grandpa that thinks he can legislate with a pen but when obama did shit it was okay cuz congress was evol whitey
Jeremiah Kelly
Weed of the future is going to be extracts in cartridges
Those are bad for you. They fuck with your throat.
Ethan Kelly
I've met very successful people who smoke weed. I've also met the people you're talking about. Thing is, the people you're talking about would find another crutch. there are plenty out there, even if its existence somehow completely was erased, you'd find those people drinking every day, or finding prescriptions to numb them. Even the people who abuse it are of better use to society doing dead end jobs than paying to cage them up.
Pharma turning pot into pills just legitimizes every other drug that’s been stigmatized, especially opiates/opioids.
Morphine, hydrocodone, oxycodone, etc pills are really just concentrates of what originally came from a plant. Where does one draw the line on DUDE WEED IS NATURAL? Oil? Dab? Shatter? Pill? “Natural” has always been what the legalize it crowd has hung their hat on for decades. Incentive pharma gets their hands on it it’s over. They will make sure you need to go to a pharmacy to get it legally, and your insurance company will find a way not to pay for it.
At least Xanax is cheap...
