Another Instance of Unnecessary Escalation by SPD Officers?.
I'm not blaming the victim here, but he really shouldn't have been saying anything in this scenario except "Am I free to go or am I being detained/arrested". It's hard as fuck to do with the cop pressuring you but everything he says in the video is either not helping or is actually hurting him and giving the cops "suspicions" that they can point at when they justify the extended stop.

Obama Has Lots of Problems but Pot Smokers Ain't One.
@8: The scheduling status of marijuana is under the executive branch's control. Any I-502 related lawsuits filed by the federal government will be chosen or not chosen by the justice department who works for Obama. Every enforcement action will be carried out by the DEA, reporting to Obama.
I'm not ignorant and lazy, and I've made my opinions known to the relevant elected officials. There were some not too happy to get an earful from me and a closed checkbook this round based upon this issue.
Sure, the principle of the president enforcing congressional laws is a lofty one (I assume the same principle leads you to criticize him for abandoning his defense of DOMA, unlike me). Maybe he should say he is going to not prosecute intra-state marijuana activities until he has successfully eradicated marijuana in all the other states :-).

Have You Ever Thrown a Drink in Someone's Face?.
I did it by accident a couple of weeks back. Standing in the crowd in the El Corazon Lounge for the Goddamn Gallows show, a woman and I smiled at each other and she raised her glass in a toast. My hands were empty, so I kind of high-fived her back. I wasn't really paying attention to what I was doing and I'm clumsy as shit anyway, so the result was a shocked expression on her face as I knock her glass and basically shower beer all over her face, hair, and clothing.
She must have been in a good mood - I escaped without punching, slapping or yelling

HOLY POT-SMOKIN’ SHIT!.
@18: Wow, I'm bowled over by the proof you have presented that what I have read is wrong, and that people will fail the 5ng/ml THC blood test 2 days after abstaining. You should consider publishing your research.

@15: You're making stuff up unless you'd care to post the results of your THC blood test after you haven't taken your medicine for two days like you say.
