Wisconsin: Legislation Seeking Increased Penalties for Marijuana Possession Introduced

Wisconsin: Legislation Seeking Increased Penalties for Marijuana Possession Introduced
Legislation is pending in the Senate and Assembly that seeks to allow municipalities to penalize marijuana possession offenders in instances where the District Attorney has refused to prosecute.
Under state law, local governments prosecute first-time marijuana possession offenses involving 25 grams or fewer. Repeat offenses, or any offense involving a quantity of marijuana over 25 grams, is prosecuted in state court at the discretion of the District Attorney. Senate Bill 150 and its companion bill (AB 164) would allow local jurisdictions to enact ordinances allowing for municipal courts to prosecute repeat cannabis possession offenders and/or those charged with possession more than 25 grams of cannabis in cases where the District Attorney has explicitly declined to do so.
At a time when many states and local jurisdictions are moving away from spending limited resources to target minor marijuana offenders, it makes little sense to enact legislation allowing for the continued prosecution of such persons in instances where the District Attorney has decided to forgo such actions.
Additional information about this legislation and efforts to oppose it is available from Wisconsin NORML here.
I bolded the part that stood out to me. Oh my fucking god...

Old people want marijuana to be illegal because if marijuana was legalized, crime would go down and the use of hard drugs would sink dramatically, which would affect their income. Old people are insane. All they want to see is people dying and hear bad news, that's why they watch the news all the time. Old people aren't fooling anyone. They're psychopaths, that's why they're always fighting, arguing, etc. Fuck them. (Just incase this seems irrelevant, I'm saying that the gov't = old people)

I'm pretty sure that was sarcasm. No way he actually believes that, it doesn't even make sense. What do they do, shove the bud up peoples butts?

It's a proven fact that Wisconsin holds 47% of the countries child molesters, 53% of the countries millionairesses, and 1% of the countries poor.
