The bullshit that is ... Asa Hutchinson

Watch the video, then follow along with my comments below:



Federal law still makes possession and sale of marijuana illegal.
Yes, we know this much already.

The question is whether it should be expanded or legalized: absolutely not.
Why not?

If you look at harmful drugs, whether it's tobacco or other hard drugs,
such as marijuana, cocaine, or methamphetamine, the objective of society
is to reduce the use of harmful drugs.
Umm ... how is marijuana a harmful drug?

If you legalize another harmful drug, the question is:
Will it expand use and availability?
... and the answer is: Absolutely, yes.
Who's talking about harmful drugs though? This debate is about weed.



First of all, if people disagree with it, in our democracy, they can change the law.
That is far more difficult a task than one would think.

Thus far, in the last eight years, they have not been successful in changing the law.
Obviously - see my comment above.

In fact, Alaska decriminalized marijuana. When they saw it became a huge problem,
they adjusted the law and recriminalized it.
How was it a huge problem, exactly?

And so, the population still resist the legalization of marijuana, but it's a public decsion.
How do they resist? It hasn't been up for vote.

Whenever you talk about the cost benefit, first of all, the figures on enforcement,
that applies across the board, whether it's all illegal drugs.
Umm ... what?

If you legalize one drug, you still have enforcement costs in the whole vast of range
of methamphetamine and other illegal drugs.
And what's this have to do with the issue of marijuana?




If your motivation is to bring revenue to the government, legalize/regulate it.
This is the only intelligent piece he has said in this debate.

But if your motivation is to reduce the usage, to save teenage lives,
to reduce dependence, to strengthen our culture, then the cost is worth it,
and the revenue should not be a motivation.
Save teenage lives? Save them from what?




I think that if you look to health professionals, they're not in favor of legalizing it,
they recognize the health consequences of it.
Total bullshit - of course they want it legalized - it's a helpful product.

The carcinogens in a marijuana cigarrete are more than a tobacco cigarette.
More nonsense - show me one medical document that backs this up.



This debate is not about alcohol,
So you're skipping over the question? How convenient.

... the debate is about a harmful substance called marijuana and drugs.
Um ... how is marijuana harmful again? I missed that part.

I glad somebody else recognises the tactics used to spread disinformation and sidestep questions.


He said its about harmful drugs not alcohol........that pretty much makes me ignore everything he sayes ,because he is a moron if he thinks liquor is not bad.

Its clasified as poision,the health effects are massive and the crime and death that are associated with it are some of the top stats in this country.

People like are pros at lying and public persuasion,based off a research on human behaivior and marketting.

I love our leaders and the feds ,they are great people and the laws they make help us!:rofl2:
