There’s a lot of people currently in jail for longer just because they possessed the leaves of a plant.

But yes, we shouldn’t be celebrating a monster like Diddy getting a slap on the wrist of just over 4 years.
nah I bet they’re plenty of people in there for possession of the leaves no buds
I love hyper-reductionism.
“There are people in jail for murder just for moving a metal lever.”
True, murder and marijuana possession are equal crimes and can be compared.
What moron thought I was comparing them?
Stick a fork in him, he’s boilin’!
I could have so easily predicted this response. 🙄
Your response was even more predictable.
Oh, you got me!
Do you have a point?
Owning marijuana leaves causes just as much harm as owning oregano.
Was it not clear? I was commenting on how hyper reductionism is ridiculous. I even called it out in my post.
There seem to be a lot of morons who think I’m comparing murder and marijuana possession though.
Who brought up murder under a comment about marijuana possession?
While I absolutely don’t agree with atzanteol, this statement is also utterly ridiculous. You own both marijuana and oregano with the intention of consumption. One of them is addictive, can cause psychosis, and can destroy lives.
All drugs should be decriminalized. So should weed. Maybe it even should be legal. But let’s try to not repeat the same mistakes we did with alcohol. Nowadays I think most people would agree that alcohol can be consumed in moderation, but its overall effect on public health is devastating and alcoholism is a real problem that affects way too many people, also people you wouldn’t think of. Science revised its guidelines of claiming a little drink a day is fine or even healthy to the best choice is no drink at all.
Its dangers were downplayed for so, so long. And now that we are legalizing weed I see the exact same sentiments about it that alcohol used to have. Marijuana is not an innocent, harmless substance. It can easily be abused and cause damage to individual lives, families, and friends.

I am making the argument for both, that is exactly the point I am making. I see too many people demonising alcohol and calling marijuana not dangerous in the same sentence, comparing it to oregano. Both substances are dangerous. And of course marijuana is addictive, what are you talking about? You can absolutely become both physically and mentally addicted to it. You can develop a tolerance, and you can trigger psychosis in predisposed younger people. I’ve seen all three cases in university and it wasn’t pretty.
Again, I am not advocating for the criminalisation of possession or consumption. I am only advocating for not downplaying that mj is a drug. Right now, the narrative parallels that “a glass of wine or two won’t hurt”, “let’s have a beer with friends”, “let’s get the champagne to celebrate”, “alcohol is fine at social events” that we used to hear some decades ago about alcohol. It didn’t end well. Why are we doing this again with weed now?

I 100% agree with everything you said. I am very much pro legalisation of weed and decriminalization of all drugs. Unless you are cooking up tons and tons of fentanyl you shouldn’t be in jail.
To me, education and awareness includes not equating marijuana and oregano.
Not just Amsterdam. Have a look at the map here.
Its dangers were downplayed for so, so long.
Huh?
That’s 4yrs and 2 months for those that have a hard time mathing.
What’s that in metric?
About five pregnancies in a row with one month break each in between
Sorry, cant do metric, but we can make the unit less helpful.
Its ~137 mochies.

He’s got money and is connected. He won’t serve more than 2 years
Which will be a year with time served. Down to 6 months before work release. 6 months which will be served in a minimum security
celebrity resortrehabilitation farm.Feels like I’ve wasted all this time not doing drugs, exploiting models and forcing people to rape eachother. I’ve been such a sucker…
So anyway, anybody here want to party? I have already ordered oil and bulls for 50 people.
Keep in mind that 1) he gets time served from the time he spent in jail, 2) if he’s a good boy he’ll do 85% of his time, 3) he could get into the RDAP program and get a year off. Not a bad deal.
including time served. he is out in 3. joke sentence
They waited til the news was distracted so they don’t have to give him a harsher sentence
If he was poor, he’d have got 50 years.
Such a broken system. Four years and change is a weak ass slap on the wrist for all the depraved bullshit he did.
He didn’t get convicted on much of it, though. It’s a flawed system and a poor person would have been locked away forever.
He’s also tied to Epstein and trump too
Bullshit their are pedophiles running free and you elected one of these criminals for president. The entire system is one pathetic hypocritical joke.
80% is less than four years. Edit: three years, three months.
There’s always vigilante justice.
Trying to make it like it’s a long time. That’s four years, that’s nothing.
All they really got is pimping and beating Cassie ass. Technically.

50 months of freaking off in jail is too light
I read the title as 50 years and thought “he’s 55 so I guess that’s enough”, then I read the comments. WTF.
slap on the baby oiled wrist
We sure he black?
Funny how race matters less when you rich
50 whole months?
2% reduced fat months
We need to do more for people with weaker crimes and unfair sentences. We should audit everyone’s sentences routinely and shut down for profits.
And 40 percent of incarcerated shouldn’t be in prison. They need mental help.
every move he makes, they’ll be watching him
Should have been 1 day of jail for every 1 bottle of baby oil he spilt.
That’s it?!
