Orlando Buffalo Posted April 19 Posted April 19 On 4/16/2024 at 2:28 PM, The Frankish Reich said: Good question that remains largely unanswered after 230 some years. When it was written it meant people here legally. If legally in country you get protected by Constitution, if you are a foreign national who is here without permission you do not get protections. There is not a question of what they meant only what dishonest politicians/judges do. The system is phenomenal until you have people believing they are moral by allowing criminals into their community 1

The Frankish Reich Posted April 25 Posted April 25 New York couldn't even get weed right. https://www.wsj.com/articles/new-york-illegal-weed-shops-marijuana-kathy-hochul-9f68cbf6?mod=opinion_lead_pos3 Boosters of legal marijuana promised a utopia like something from the sunniest dreams of the 1960s: responsible use, oodles of tax revenue, and upstanding entrepreneurs instead of lawbreaking dealers. But in New York less than two years later, a thicket of illegal stores is crowding out licensees in a genuine fiasco. I live in Colorado. Woo-hoo, first in the nation to legalize weed! I didn't like it when it happened, not because I'm not in favor of legalization (I am) but because I didn't want Colorado to become an even bigger magnet for weed tourism, etc. And guess what happened when Obama said "go ahead?" A bunch of weed stores opened. A bunch of greenhouses growing weed for them started up. A bunch of ancillary services joined them. I recall sitting at a coffee shop overhearing a conversation between some kind of investor group and a guy who was starting up a weed packaging business. (Real quote: "We want the customer to be able to open the package and get that blast of fresh weed, kind of like opening a potato chip bag"). And the black market essentially disappeared. Licensed, generally well-regulated, not an anything goes third worldly bunch of fly-by-night outfits. New York had the model. Just copy Colorado! And still they got it horribly wrong. 1

Tommy Callahan Posted June 6 Posted June 6 (edited) Can't make it up. Hockel is backing off the congested tax as most hate it. And the rich folks are crying hard about it. God forbid the lady actually represents people vs special interest. Edited June 6 by Tommy Callahan

Irv Posted June 7 Posted June 7 Nothing gets done at any level in NY until someone in government gets paid. This place is a suck hole. What a mess. 1
Tommy Callahan Posted September 2 Posted September 2 Sounds like having Rick Ross do a concert wasn't the best ideas. Police say no shots. Videos and FB live shows lots of fights and the sound of gunshots.
