Cops upset at justice department over pot

Beyond their issues with process, the law enforcement groups made it clear that they did not agree with the policy decision. The sky would fall if people could buy and smoke pot legally, the cops warned.
"The decision by the Department ignores the connections between marijuana use and violent crime, the potential trafficking problems that could be created across state and local boundaries as a result of legalization, and the potential economic and social costs that could be incurred," they wrote. "Communities have been crippled by drug abuse and addiction, stifling economic productivity. Specifically, marijuana's harmful effects can include episodes of depression, suicidal thoughts, attention deficit issues, and marijuana has also been documented as a gateway to other drugs of abuse."
As if that were not enough, the cops also warned of "grave unintended consequences, including a reversal of the declining crime rates" of the past decades. But they didn't explain how allowing for legal marijuana sales in Colorado and Washington would cause crime to increase.

Well, we all hate rippers and know what to do with them.(increased ten fold) If the whole State has pot on hand, the only market is out of State. You can`t sell on my turf wars. Last and most important, you pollinate my shit,...I`ll kill ya !i That`s why the whole Country legal or the whole Country not......works !i
 
Round these parts the porkers will take your smoke, and then smoke your smoke. Detroit is the most corrupt area I've ever lived near......I'm personally not dumb enough to smoke and drive anymore. But my brother has had that happen on multiple occasions.
