We have reported on healthy adults in all fifty states whose lives are turned upside down by an arrest, sometimes losing student loans, jobs, children, pets, dignity, property, and freedom over a single joint, seed, or even a cannabis stem. When we and others bring up these insane injustices to the police who are making these arrests, we often hear the platitude that “cops don’t make the laws, we just enforce the laws.” So why do we consistently see representatives of law enforcement opposing medical marijuana, marijuana decriminalization, and marijuana legalization efforts in state legislatures?

You may think that Juárez is far away and that you and your children have nothing to do with rival drug gang warfare, so this doesn’t affect you. But so long as there exists a War on (Certain American Citizens Using Non-Pharmaceutical, Non-Alcoholic, Tobacco-Free) Drugs, there is the chance you can get caught up in the crossfire.

According to the people I trust the Skywalker was on the board at $75 per eighth and often discounted to $65-$70. Likewise the trainwreck sold for $45 an eighth. A markup of 100% is standard in Los Angeles, some markup less, some more but most use a 100% formula. For example a pound bought for $3,200 that is broken down to $25 an eight would usually sell at $50 an eighth (bringing back $6,400), $15-$20 per gram. Individual gram sales are the biggest moneymaker to collectives.
