[QUOTE="_CY_, post: 2817758, member: 7629"] old lies die hard .. it's hard for the folks that still believe pot is a schedule I drug, bad as heroin with no medicinal values ... to wake up to states all over legalizing pot or that pot actually has proven medicinal properties with life changing help for some. or that Colorado is experiencing a dramatic drop in highway fatalities after pot legalization. on top of raising millions $$$ in new taxes, along with driving one of the fastest growing economy in USA, etc. etc. etc. ========== [URL="http://www.hightimes.com/read/new-dea-head-believes-medical-marijuana-should-remain-schedule-i"]New DEA Head Believes Medical Marijuana Should Remain Schedule I[/URL] Sep 10, 2015 [IMG]https://www.okshooters.com/data/MetaMirrorCache/assets.hightimes.com_styles_large_s3_ChuckRosenberg_DEA_Schedud368044cff4d6adaf5def3ee32e33bb3.jpg[/IMG] Although a nation of marijuana reform advocates had hoped that former DEA director Michele Leonhart’s successor would be more progressive in his or her approach to the drug war, a recent interview with Chuck Rosenberg, the man now overseeing the DEA’s daily operations, proves that our wishes have not come true.
