Jeff Sessions is the biggest a.h Trump needs to get rid of this power tripping whore bag.
So much for states right to legalize .
.Good! 100 less addiction factories.
There's only one problem with that, people accept the drug war as they are baited into it using that reasoning, just like save the children.
Here is the problem and it's only 1. If you are driving down the road because lets say you just sold something for a large amount of cash even 1,000 $ They can take that money and say it was used for drug " when it wasn't" if they can't find a way to charge you they will charge your money for the crime.... you can lose your home, lose your car and any other property ......
One can be charged with intent to deliver even when they weren't.
Better known as ASSEST FORFEITURE.........
AND REMEMBER YOU DON'T HAVE TO COMMIT A CRIME, THEY JUST GOTTA SAY YOU DID COMIT ONE ( THEY MEANING POLICE/AUTHORITIES)
Police abuse of civil asset forfeiture laws has shaken our nation’s conscience. Civil forfeiture allows police to seize — and then keep or sell — any property they allege is involved in a crime. Owners need not ever be arrested or convicted of a crime for their cash, cars, or even real estate to be taken away permanently by the government.

Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) told C-SPAN’s “Newsmakers” on Sunday that he thinks civil asset forfeiture – where police can seize, then keep or sell any property they suspect is involved in a crime regardless of whether or not the owner is arrested or even convicted – “is a terrible idea until you’ve convicted someone.”
