Chelsea Clinton: Marijuana Can Kill

http://www.breitbart.com/big-government ... y-to-kill/

The DEA disagrees with Chelsea.

The comments on Breitbart are the most supportive of Cannabis that I have seen on a right leaning site.

And even funnier. High Times commenters are very supportive of Trump. Which is a shift I did not expect.

I discuss that (with links) here: http://classicalvalues.com/2016/09/clin ... on-voters/

what she actually said:
"We also have anecdotal now from Colorado, where some of the people who were taking marijuana for those purposes, the coroner believed after they died that there were drug interactions with other things they were taking.”
Obviously MSimon "drug interactions with other things they were taking.” could be almost anything, from prescription drugs to heroin or crystal meth. In other words Chelsea is a chip off the old Clinton block as far as knowing how to parse the truth (lie).

The lie was admitted a day after she made it. One of her handlers announced she "misspoke". The lie was a message for some one. And it wasn't the Youngstown State University audience she spoke before. Kids these days are pretty up on cannabis.

I would expect a statement like that would be done in front of an audience of geezers. It might go over well with some of them. So the message - we are not going to go full bore with even medicalization - was probably for some of Hillary's donors. Big Pharma will lose big just in the antidepressant market. So that might be one. Many Police Departments have confiscations as a line item in their budget. That is another.

You should look at: http://classicalvalues.com/2016/09/clin ... on-voters/ - Clinton is losing the rabid anti-prohibition crowd (about 10% of the population). If she loses just half of them it will augment the Trump landslide. In fact any significant loses there will hurt. Those folks used to be reliably Democrat.
