A quadruple murder in Oklahoma shows how the Chinese underworld has come to dominate the booming illicit trade, fortifying its rise as a global powerhouse with alleged ties to China’s authoritarian regime.
too bad both presidential candidates are old and conservative
and Biden is Religious with a prosecutor for a vice president to boot who has backtracked on most of his campaign promises including his ones on cannabis which he did on day one of his presidency
legalization is decades away and with states and Native Americans legalizing the trouble for citizens will only get worse
there are already border patrol style policing going on at the borders of legal states, cities that are half recreational and or medical and half illegal, and thousands left imprisoned
that is yet another failed promise wrangling in the police even going as far as turning a blind eye to cop city
How is trouble for states and reservations going to get worse? Every year more nonviolent drug offenders are released. Not enough of them are being released but a token amount. There’s no legislation coming down the pipe to increase penalties for minor users and already delta-9 is legal and freely sold. Where are you getting your data?
Journalist and protesters in the US killed or imprisoned by cops
Corporations using prison labor
More things are qualifying as jailable offenses such as people’s social status or medical conditions/events/etcetera or jobs
Cops are increasingly more prone to protect corporate interests over the public’s (who wrote that story The Last Capitalist the one were one man owned the earth including oxygen and sold it with cops protecting him?)
a president who back tracked on every campaign promise to address policing issues
the next election is against two people want to continue doing all the above and more
barely leave just for the grocery store anymore
it is getting worse your next trip outside could involve a black bag over our heads
Yes policing in this country in general is getting worse. The school to prison pipeline using SROs to imprison children is abhorrent and you didn’t even mention it.
However your initial argument is that weed convictions are getting worse. And there’s nothing to support that claim.
What you are mentioning are general broad stroke ills that we have to, as Americans address by holding our leaders accountable, voting in local elections and uplifting marginalized intersectional voices to the national level.
Shit is dire, but we have to be specific and precise in our criticism or we’ll be discounted outright.
Leftists have to work so much harder to even be heard let alone change anything, and we cannot do that without precise irrefutable positions and easily understood and concise points.
Just fucking legalize it already.

cops are still arresting people
That does not qualify for the modifier worse. It’s still bad. But it’s not yet getting worse.
