Kamala Harris Packed California Prisons With Pot Peddlers

At least 1,560 people were sent to state prisons for marijuana-related
offenses between 2011 and 2016

Charles Fain Lehman and Brent Scher - February 14, 2019 5:00 AM

Sen. Kamala Harris (D., Calif.) admitted in an interview this week to
using marijuana, an act that landed thousands in prison while she was
California's Attorney General and opposed legalization of the drug.

The drug use admission to the "Breakfast Club" came as part of Harris'
attempt to erase the reputation she earned as a California prosecutor.

She is now calling for legalizing marijuana as a first step to end
the War on Drugs, but opposed marijuana legalization during both her
2010 campaign for Attorney General and 2014 re-election campaign, when
she notably lost support from the marijuana industry after she laughed
at her Republican opponent for supporting legalization.

Under Harris's six-year tenure, hundreds were sent to state prisons
for marijuana-related offenses, crime records show.

Possession of small quantities of marijuana (up to an ounce) for
personal use has been decriminalized in California since 1975.
However, sales of the drug remained illegal until 2018, when the
commercial licensing portion of Proposition 64—the ballot measure that
legalized weed state-wide—was implemented. That means that the state
still arrested, prosecuted, and imprisoned people for
marijuana-related offenses.

The California Attorney General's office does not provide organized,
publicly available data on annual prosecutions. When contacted by the
Free Beacon, it could only point to its OpenJustice data portal, which
reports only limited data sets. However, the California Department of
Corrections and Rehabilitation does provide data on the total number
of admissions to state prisons annually, in its "Offender Data Points"
series and the now-discontinued "Characteristics of New Admissions"
series.

These reports provide information on new admissions (as opposed to
parole violators) to the California state prison system, including by
offense type. Based on these reports, at least 1,560 people were sent
to state prisons for marijuana-related offenses between 2011 and 2016.

Replying to OT posts is OT too. Some of us would not have seen that OT
post if you had not replied.

Somewhere in that giant copy/paste, do you have a point to make?

Or is your only assertion, "I have a mouse and I know how to use it"?

That wasn't me but my copycat.

But as they say "Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery".

Yes. The words in the article. Words you don't like (probably too low
in calories for you).

And your assertion seems to be you can cram a twinkie down your neck
the same time as using a mouse? Eh fatso?

I'm guessing your point is that she prosecuted drug dealers when she was
AG, used pot (which was decriminalized at the time), and has previously
opposed its legalization. Therefore she's a hypocrite.

You may have a point about her use of it, but I applaud anyone who can
take in new information and change their mind.

LMAO. That's your interpretation of her thoughts and actions? She
hasn't changed her mind over anything. It couldn't be that this
sociopathic women who cynically targeted minorities to support the
prison industrial complex has no ethics or conscience? No, that could
only apply to Trump. Right?

Did she target minorities or did she target sellers/uses of which most
are minorities? I've seen complaints she is hard on minorities but I've
not see where she goes easy on whites. Please post any supporting
information on that if it exists.

At last. Your own thoughts.

My conjecture was one possible interpretation. Many people have changed
their mind on legalizing pot. I'm not sufficiently interested in her past to do
any digging. Have at it.
