Do what you llike 429. 23 years for me. We earned what we get. I am talking of people who will not work and expect the liberals to supply everything for them. Drugs? If a person needs mind altering drugs i feel for them.

@Nod; YES!, the government takes care of me and I damn well expect them to.

I served twenty one years in the US Military and honorably retired. I cut a deal with the devil and I expect for him to uphold his end of the bargain.

Not everyone who smokes pot is some aimless, dysfunctional minion. Some people just prefer it over alcohol and alcohol is a deadly chemical. Legalize pot or outlaw alcohol.

NEW AND BETTER IDEAS

As each new generation takes over things always get worse. What you want is a permissive society where everything, including drugs, is free. No one works and the goverment takes care of you.

Meanwhile someone is ODING or the dealer is cutting the dope with death. Wasting money on looking for potheads is foolish and marijuana is illegal, but the only thing that gets killed is a dozen Krispy Kreme doughnuts! Things will get better when all of the old people leave the government and we can new and better ideas, things more up to date.

@Alex, you forgot man portable nukes and particle beam weapons.

Pot is not crack or meth, no more than alcohol or tobacco is. If you do not like something, then keep it out from within your property lines, otherwise let the rest of us pay our taxes and enjoy “life liberty and the pursuit of happiness”.

For real? I don’t even see the money laundering charge… they transferred profits from 1 financial institution to another? He could have loaded his Walmart card from his personal bank account. Geezz. A lot of time and money to get these guys off the streets. Sounds like somebody rolled on them a few years ago and they figured they better wrap this case up before it becomes legal and all that money for investigations was wasted. Especially when the public is in an uproar over School Resource Officers.

REGARDING:
“Legal on one end and illegal on the other. ”

Actually illegal at both ends under federal law which has not been changed and this is a federal indictment. President Obama simply was lax about enforcing those laws since the people voted to allow it. So far President Trump is usually neither bothering to enforce the laws nor ask Congress to change them. This allows the feds to go after those they wish and ignore those they wish to protect.

Even at that, recreational use was illegal in California until November of last year.

Further, their unpaid taxes range between 40% to 70% of their sales.
(The federal government does not have to legalize a thing to tax it.)

David for fewer crimes
