Feinstein is one of the most authoritarian senators, so this is sad, but not surprising.
The good people of California have the chance to elect a real progressive to replace her.
How's that a bad thing? The country would do better with more authoritarianism.
However, while the principle is admirable (which is rare for a corporatist like her), it is a missed opportunity to regulate like hell, demonize it, and stick it to all those "Stoners Against 19" people.
People, what the flower is wrong with young uns on here?
Gosh darn it, the country does not need more authoritarianism. I mean super bro, do you really think what we are sorely lacking in this country are even more stupid laws to throw people into jail for stupid reasons. We got like millions of dudes in prison for the simple crime of lighting up a piece of green in their pipe. How in a peck of pickled peppers are you going to say to somebody, stonefaced, "oh I see nothing wrong with that. If anything we should arrest more people for even more insane brilliance. Hey, that reminds me are there laws against briefly smelling gasoline as you fill up your car? Yeah that would be a really good market if we want to reach the 20 million mark by March 2018."
