It is like the race issue in our country, no one can be racist except a white person. I am white, sorry JJ readers. I have an Associate and a Bachelor degree. I am 6'0 and 181lbs. I am an avid outdoorsman and love to bike. I own a small business here and I also install, design, and sell photovoltaic systems around the southeast. I haven't "thrown out any gotcha knowledge" I have only included a bit of humor and sarcasm in my posts (My humor sometimes is only humorous to myself). <br /><br />"I'll be shunned and disbarred here in MS if I dare defend a marijuana case and speak out.."<br /><br />"If I prescribe CBD oil, which I believe all the scientific data presented over umpteen years, I may loose a few opioid addicted, barbiturate abusing, depressed SSRI crazies, and big pharma will come after me, so I will keep hush hush.."<br /><br />"I say anything, I do anything, and I support anything that gets me elected and makes me money. I am only honest, forthright, and genuine in my campaign. I will do absolutely everything I say I will do when I get elected.."<br /><br />"You need to form your own opinions, do some research, talk to some sick folks who have benefited from CBD oil (sorry it doesn't cause any type of euphoric feeling) and open your eyes. It isn't as if I have said I advocate complete recreational legalization, because I don't. I am simply speaking on my own opinion about different subject matters pertaining to marijuana and the benefits and the stigma attached to it."<br /><br />There are few people more smug than a 40 something, poor, half educated, deeply republican mom of 5 who thinks anyone who supports marijuana MUST: have dreads, wear birkenstocks, and have been to community college. Although I myself can't stand the "modern hippie" either.<br /><br />12:44, care to elaborate on your physical build, employment, and your education? Probably not, but thats ok, you have made me smile today. Love my state, but can't stand individuals like you.<br /><br />#onlyMYopinionCOUNTS<br />#hypocrite<br />#youareSMART<br />#youareBETTERAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-7976107728266516572017-04-28T12:44:00.423-05:002017-04-28T12:44:00.423-05:00There are few people more smug than twentysomethin...There are few people more smug than twentysomething dope advocates with 3 semesters of community college under their belts. Everyone is uneducated or misinformed or a sheep. They "haven't a real clue about the medical and monetary value of marijuana when it's controlled". They throw out the incredibly well-known fact that Ole Miss grows and studies marijuana as if it's some obscure bit of "gotcha!" knowledge that will put those uptight codgers on their heels. No one who disagrees with them can have a valid point or should be paid any deference.<br /><br />"You, Mr. 45-year-old attorney, are misinformed about marijuana.<br /><br />"You, Ms. 58-year-old physician, need to educate yourself, if that's possible.<br /><br />"You, Mr. 39-year-old politician, haven't a real clue about the value of marijuana.<br /><br />"You need to listen to me, a 24-year-old film student and part-time Starbucks barista. I've read articles in High Times. I've watched at least five documentaries on Netflix. I've seen a TED talk video about legalization. And I have performed a LOT a experiments regarding the effects of THC on a 248-pound man under the age of 30. I KNOW what I'm talking about!"<br /><br />#SoMuchSmarterAndBetterThanYou Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-72307316711492653252017-04-28T11:15:37.287-05:002017-04-28T11:15:37.287-05:00@ 9:17, thank you for breaking that down for that ...@ 9:17, thank you for breaking that down for that singular particular holding facility. I'm the previous poster discussing my pro view of marijuana. I agree wholly that discussing this is mostly a waste of time due to several reasons I don't have time to touch on. Really my main point/argument is that marijuana has a terrible stigma associated with it and it isn't nearly as harmful as misinformed people think. I'll shut up now!

It's a distraction from the larger problems plaguing our criminal justice and prison system. The #'s KF cited say 18% are in for drug related offenses and most of those offenses are trafficking. Simple math from here on out:<br /><br />138 inmates in for drug charges multiplied by a factor of 51% to meet the minimum requirements of the definition of "most", KF's chosen word = 68 inmates in for drug charges which are not trafficking<br /><br />Out of those 68 inmates, let's say we divide inmates evenly by their drug possession of choice only using the 5 most commonly known illegal drugs (weed, meth, coke, crack, heroin) =13.6 inmates, round to 14.<br /><br />This leaves us with 14 out of 759 inmates in the slammer for possession of pot. So even using the least possible statistical value of the word "most", plus ignoring the fact that stiffer penalties are given for non-weed drugs, then leaving out ecstasy, prescription pills, etc. as possible reason for arrest, WE'RE STILL LEFT WITH ONLY 1.8% BEING LOCKED UP FOR MARIJUANA POSSESSION.<br /><br />Stick that in your pipe and smoke it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-2888669734235692642017-04-28T08:01:56.236-05:002017-04-28T08:01:56.236-05:00@ 7:17, yes I do hate those misinformed people tha...@ 7:17, yes I do hate those misinformed people that give it a bad name.

I never said the jails were full of individuals charged with simple possession. There are a few extenuating cases though involving some.

Yes, violence is associated with illegal sale of it. So tax it, regulate it, control it. It becomes less interesting to the youth, not as profitable by any means for criminals, and the police can worry about rape, kidnap, burglary, theft, murder, etc..I know I'm speaking to the majority of which are "sheep" and haven't a real clue about the medical and monetary value of marijuana when it's controlled but I'll say all this anyway. Please...drunk driver blowing through a stop sign killing a pedestrian vs. driver on marijuana forgetting to proceed after they stopped at the stop sign? Driver high and nodding out on prescription opioids plowing into another vehicle head on vs. a stoned driver going 15mph under the speed limit? I'll quit my rant because it falls on mostly deaf ears here at JJ and in the state but...educate yourself, if that's possible. The legalized states and the medical field have a time after time proven positive track record for the most part. <br /><br />Our MS jails are waay overcrowded. Private prisons are for: profit. A holding facility "holding" people on minor drug charges is a tax burden and a lot of us Mississippians don't make enough to be paying for John's 3 hots and a cot because he had a few pills on him, or had a few joints on him, or was caught in a sting purchasing marijuana, etc. I don't condone a lot of it but my Lord, Hinds county jails are ridiculous in so many ways. <br /><br />Lastly, the ONLY university in the UNITED STATES that grows and studies marijuana, oh no, wait for it, cringe all ye faithful, is right in Oxford, MS at Ole Miss. I wonder how 12:35 would feel if one of their family members was locked up in the deplorable conditions in a Hinds county jail for some marijuana...<br /><br />#NOTpcAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-89932867995870921732017-04-27T12:35:55.919-05:002017-04-27T12:35:55.919-05:00So what you're saying is that this statistic a...So what you're saying is that this statistic about our jails are overcrowded with non-violent people incarcerated on simple possession charges, so legalize weed so I can smoke in public...that's complete bullshit.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-5025491681925976412017-04-27T11:44:11.881-05:002017-04-27T11:44:11.881-05:00True crime???True crime???Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
