The memo also encouraged prosecutors to pursue capital punishment in cases involving "dealing in extremely large quantities of drugs."
According to the U.S. statutes, an "extremely large" quantity of drugs means distributing at least 600 times the amount of a given substance that would bring penalties of five to 40 years in prison.
The CIA is fricked.

Death penalty for non violent offenders might be the first step of this civil war many seem to be hoping for

The death penalty will have a negligible effect, if any, on the opioid problem.
Plus, I guess they are attaching the death sentence to murder to try and make it constitutional, but the ones that are shooting people are not the ones who are the big-boy behind the scene mega-dealers.

Only in a Trump DOJ, would an AG propose the death penalty for weed dealers.

Keep bringing truth to these threads. I think there's no finer example of hypocrisy on the poliboard than the amount of posters who claim to champion the cause of Liberty yet support this retarded policy.

As long as big phram is getting people hooked in the first place, people will always turn to heroin when their pills are gone.

Under current federal statute, Sessions has to be able to tie a murder to the dealing in order to seek the death penalty for drug trafficking. An example would be a Mafia boss who hits a low level distributor in the course of a major heroin or cocaine ring, but Sessions's interpretation goes far beyond what federal law allows. You cannot be executed for simply trafficking drugs, which is now what Sessions is telling prosecutors to do. And why do conservatives all of a sudden trust the FBI and DOJ to do the right thing given what we know about corruption within said departments?

SCOTUS’s change. I think a lot of judges would overthrow that ruling today

Singapore entry cards have block red letters on them:
DEATH FOR ALL DRUG TRAFFICKERS
Something close to an ounce of coke is a death sentence.

Yeah, if the consequences from getting caught jump from jail time to the death penalty you can bet they'll do whatever is in their power to avoid cuffs.

So far in the war against plants we spent over $1 trillion, locked up millions and turned all of our police departments into small armies and the plants are still winning. I wonder if it is even possible to win a war against plants.

Yep.
More laws and regulations = stronger and more dangerous (and expensive) alternatives

Wrong. If you take oxycotton as prescribed it isn't addictive
