Yeah, but it's still overhyped at the beginning. And I still think it's silly to award them the Nanny of the Month title for upholding the law, at least in comparison to people who are pushing new laws and writing them.
It's like blaming Japanese internment on the Supreme Court because of Korematsu, instead of on FDR et al.
Even disagreeing with Gonzales v. Raich, I wouldn't describe it as "the Supreme Court banning cannabis." I would describe it as the Supreme Court upholding the ban.
Where did Reason touch you? Show ne on the doll where Reason touched you.

Yes. Given that I have the Sugarfree model, I will be sentenced to merely hours of incarceration.
