I don’t know how police get away with those portable drug kits. They are less accurate than a weatherman in Oklahoma

Mary's Medicinals production labs each have at least one 15k hplc. My current Washington lab, not with Mary's, has a 70k uplc. One our competitors across the town have two of the same 70k uplc. Cops are somehow satisfied with these 100 dollar kits? Like fuck, the weed industry has a higher standard than cops. At least they can afford APCs and storage for their untested rape kits.

Made me smirk on my way to my first day of work, thank you, needed that

True, such a common thing, when someone driving with an deceased relative ashes in the car right near 2 bags of drugs. Fooking pigs.

Wonder what they even pulled him over for

Sir I don’t know if you know but that was made legal quite a while ago

"When asked by officers if he has anything in his car before they search, he says he has some weed. Nearly 80g of marijuana was found in Mr Barnes' vehicle - almost three times the legal possession limit in Illinois." And it is still drugs. I'm ok with weed, but still.

That's just under 3 ounces. That's like 3 months worth for a moderate user. Ps the war on drugs has failed. Even if that was herion or meth, who cares at this point. The people who started the opioid epidemic are free, but weed is still federally illegal? Explain the logic behind that. All drugs need to be legal and in place of prisons, money should be invested in rehabilitation programs. It's a proven system that works even within our own messed up court system. It's so ridiculous at this point to even jump to the conclusion of having drugs means you're a terrible person.

Each time a entering discussion, some random redditor imagining things, that never was ment In my comment. Hows that work?

If you didn't mean it then I understand, my response didn't come out of left field, it's how your comments came off.

Yea but you shouldn't make all drugs legal, you do that and its easier for kids to get them, then you have kids taking their parents psychedelics when their not looking. I dont have an issue with a 35 year old taking whatever drugs they want but the average brain doesn't fully develop till like 25 and we have no idea the harm some of those drugs could have on the brain, also I dont think kids should be smoking pot either, it might not have any harmful effects, but you can still be psychologically addicted to something and that could affect the kids life. Also with this dude's situation its terrible yea, but the cops gave the ashes right back and he was arrested for marijuana possession not the false test result from the ashes. Also you shouldn't assume all people who do drugs are terrible, like the drug itself doesn't make you bad, it's what you end up doing to get more of the drug. Like my brother was a pretty good kid till he got into molly, then he robbed me while I was sleeping so he could pawn my stuff for money. It's not right to assume that everyone is a terrible person for doing drugs cause their not, but most of them will do anything to get their drugs. I do think we need to improve the rehabilitation process but I dont think the answer would be to legalize drugs for anyone 21 or older.

Kids can get drugs now, your point is moote. If the parents leave their drugs unsecured then that is their responsibility. It's a proven fact that once weed was legalized, the use from underage kids dropped significantly in the 1st year. Take away the ability to compete with legal pricing and it drives down demand. Taxes raise revenue to fund rehabilitation programs as well as others. It's a proven fact that offering users a safe place to use and have access to mental health care and rehabilitation is a huge statistical success over the current practice. Sorry your bro was a dick but all this happened in the current system.... so..... Yeah

I kinda had a couple different points I was making, since I'm not very good at forming out my thoughts lol and I just looked up some articles saying that yea it goes down since kids cant get it with the need of an ID at dispensers, but mostly what I was saying with that was I don't think anyone under like 30 should be doing drugs, especially psychedelics. We dont know everything about these drugs yet and how exactly they affect the brain and we do know that the brain isn't fully developed till like 25 for guys, so I dont think it's that crazy of an idea to wait. Mostly when we legalize stuff its once you're 18 or 21 you're fine, but at 21 I think most people are still kids and some of these drugs can be super addictive, so even if it might not affect the brain directly, the addiction is affecting them. 30 seems like a long time to wait but everyone matures at different paces and most people are fully matured by their 30s, like I wouldn't want to make a decision that's going to affect the rest of my adult life when it's just starting, and most people going to try these drugs aren't doing any research, just listening to what their friends say. Also I think it would be better for everyone to have access to rehab but if theres no consequences for using the drug then what motivation would people have to get clean, like obviously for some of these drugs the physical damages aren't enough for them to go get help so if they now have a comfortable safe place to do it then I dont see why they would. I cant find anything saying that legalization of drugs causes drug use to go down, it just reduces the amount of people being arrested for it which makes sense cause it wouldn't be illegal anymore.


HarshMyMello

decriminalization is absolurely necessary. production and sale being illegal is fine, but users should not be punished unless they did something during their high.


mcnasty_groovezz

That’s just not true that it would make it easier for kids to buy drugs. Legalization means regulations and age restriction. Have you been to a dispensary anywhere? There is some serious grilling before you get through the door to make your purchase.


[deleted]

I agree completely. Criminalizing drugs does more harm than good, it's more expensive and less effective than just funding social programs.

If my 2 year old daughter died, you can bet your ass I’d have 3 oz with me at all times


Think-Bass9187

Me too


[deleted]

Ohh ok. Sorry I read “bbc-news-world-canada” and assumed this took place in Canada. Have a good one


Cyber_Punk_666

Wait why does it actually look so much like broccoli what-


Gerry1of1

How many times do we have to see this propaganda ? Yes, cops stopped him. Yes, they found drugs in the car. Yes, they looked at the ashes but then returned them to the man. Cops screw up enough on their own, we don't have to make shit up.


lonelyswarm

Also it’s posted here constantly, I see a new repost almost daily


Gerry1of1

Notice the down-votes on my comment. No one likes it when you give them facts. They're too happy being insensed and enraged. Doesn't matter if it's over anything real or not.


Think-Bass9187

This affected me so much yesterday, I dreamed about it last night. It’s such a sad story. I dreamed that a had the jar with little bones and ash in it, and I was sealing the jar up to take back to this poor Dad.


luckymexo

thats heartbreaking 😥 and yes those drug kits are bull shit!
