The question still remains with all of these cases where a bunch of pounds are discovered: where does it all go? If in storage at the precinct, then for how long? If only for a temporary time, where does it all go after storage? At the end of the day, someone’s getting it all.

What do our police do with all this “evidence”? Let the Santa Ana police give you a good example:

16 pounds only $12k? Must’ve been some bunk

Did you know that the main reason that cannabis was originally made illegal only a few decades ago (1968) was to wage political war against the Nixon administration’s prime enemies, namely blacks and hippies? Read on:

Yup, thats right! Mar 26, 2016 - 10:41 pm

Made illegal only a few decades ago? Try 1937, when the Marijuana Tax Act was passed and Nixon was 24 years old

You’re totally correct about the 1937 dating. The point about 1968 was that the Nixon administration had begun a new propoganda ploy to associate cannabis with its political enemies, most of whom happened to be herb-smoking anti-Vietnam war protestors. Although cannabis was already considered illegal, it wasn’t until the Nixon era that each drug was given exact scheduling, which placed cannabis at the highest level schedule 1, resulting in the higher penalties we now see so common with the drug war.

Peace ✌?️
