The hilarity of this is that MADD will still tell you the drinking age is 21 to protect 18 year olds (who aren't driving).

What the bill allows is the product must stay below natural levels of THC-9 from hemp. Which is very very very low. Most of the THC in hemp derived products are 9 and 10

This is wrong. The bill says 0.3% THC. When you realize that we are talking about milligrams of THC vs grams of gummies, you'll realize how this is possible.

How can this lead to a balanced budget?

You just basically spend all your time outside with people, reading and writing, doing whatever. No way to be connected, no one can call you and bother you. And since none of this technology existed you wouldn’t be missing it.

You're missing a lot of heartache, angst, and turmoil by not having that. Farm accidents often killed the farmer due to lack of antibiotics, bad water often lead to cholera or typhoid fever. Bandits and thieves lead to being able to actively defend yourself, or death/serious injury. Food was more expensive, harder to store, and didn't last as long. Not to mention it was harder to prepare, no microwaves or gas ovens. Every illness could kill you.

Life was a lot less forgiving than it is now. Most people think they would have been fine, but there's a lot of people buried that will tell another tale.

Freedom of religion isn’t anything close to our modern definition of “separation of church and state.”

This thread is all over the place. First the US is founded as a Christian nation, then Trump is shown as a standup Christian, then freedom of religion suddenly doesn't mean there's a prohibition on state religion.

Carry on. :lol:

ICE didn’t have a detainer for him.

I was referring to the article I posted two pages back.

quote:

The 20-year-old’s first language is Tzotzil, a Mayan language, and he took a long pause when he was asked if he wanted to hire a private attorney or obtain a public defender. He lived in Mexico from the time he was 1-year-old until four years ago, when he returned to Georgia, his mother told the Phoenix.

The Homeland Security Investigations Office in Tampa issued the 48-hour ICE detainer on Thursday. An ICE officer whose name and phone number appear in the detainer refused to speak with the Phoenix.

Yeah. If your first language is Tsotzil and you have lived in Mexico almost all your life, you might get deported.

I love making precedents on one in a million cases. It’s very efficient.

If he looked Canadian and spoke English would that change the situation?

It does exist

For now, yes, though some on this board (vehemently) disagree or see how it could be problematic for US citizens.

quote:

---

Due process should be “prove your citizenship”. No? You gotta go. There will be some mistakes made and quite frankly, I’m perfectly fine with that.

---

If that was the proposed policy I would be ok with that.

I tend to have problems when US citizens are detained illegally with no court dates to figure out if they can be deported, but I could see how you'd be ok with some getting stripped of their rights without cause.

quote:

So he’s not getting deported?

---

Only because he was picked up on a state charge first, and had a court date, i.e. due process.
