Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

What's the next thing you're gonna try when this one doesn't stick?
Something about her being a criminal herself considering she prosecuted 1300 people for weed then years later laughed about it and admitted she smoked weed and definitely inhaled as well.
Here's a fact check that goes over her history as a prosecutor. Hint: it doesn't fit well into a single reductive sentence.
And what about it????
Hint:
This fact check almost does the work for you, as much as they try not to.
I'm sure everyone has done some decent acts in their life no matter how much of a POS they ended up as. Good luck to her and God bless our troops.
Arrests are done by the police, not the DA, so that issue lies with the police. And as much of the rest of the article pointed out, the number of people who saw the inside of a prison cell for marijuana possession was small.
The article did not say the number of people she prosecuted who saw the inside of a cell was small it was vague in saying a small number went to state prison and some went to county jail or other conseques. Anyways how convenient. The number prosecuted remains hidden.
And that has nothing to do with anything. You don't have to see the inside of a cell to have your life de-railed and ruined due to a conviction. Once it's on your record. It's there and will affect certain opportunities you may have otherwise had. And that will follow you a long time. So that's long term. Then there was also the short term immediate perils you may have went through going through the conviction process. Arrests are done by police sure but that's also
So, which is it? You’re mad she did her job, or you’re mad she smoked weed? Because, as you conveniently neglected to mention, when she admitted to having smoked it in college, she was also speaking to the fact that she supports legalizing it.
Yes. Just following orders isn't an excuse
That’s not how that works
How does it make sense. You tell me what it is.
Smoked weed in college. 20 years later she's prosecuting people for it. Another 20 years later she wants to legalize it. So again you tell me what it is?
She's a fucking demon is what it is.
I don't conveniently miss a damn thing.
It sounds like you’re joking, but the sad thing is I know that you’re not.
Best of luck to ya, buddy. Hope you find something to calm the demons.
You just admitted that you're just spamming agitprop until something sticks.
Wtf are you talking about. Two threads is spam? Relax. Breathe. And stop doing what you are accusing me of doing. I'm voicing my concerns as I'm free to do and I don't care if the leopards don't like it.
How soon will you know that this attack didn't take so you can move on to the next one?
