use a different bot then? theres plenty of bots around for all sorts of things.

I got one bot set up right. Why would I switch to another bot and go through another potential headache?

Emily and I are going to head to Montreal ina few days and then Detroit if you have any story suggestions

How bout a channel for that

this is the newsroom channel

Maybe you should make another text channel for general discussion so that the distinction is more apparent

Oh so shitposting is the general?

@Kori Tainaka I think <#398973785426100234> is for shitposting

If you could shoot some drone Footage off Mont Royal that would be a great scenery for a video or an interview spot @Timcast

mountain right in the middle of the city

@Timcast I would be grateful if you would read my suggestions further up, some of them could be quite helpful.

dji drones are the worst

all of my batteries failed

I was talking about this with another member of the discord yesterday on voice chat but something to look into maybe in the future is what's going on with California and pot. And I don't mean like the debate, I mean how right now a lot of start-up bussinesses have just dumped a TON of money into pot production and might have to find a way to pull out all their resources really quick.

Yeah pot is a hot debate right now if you haven't done it already

Has nothing to do with Montreal though

oof

I don't understand Sessions, obsession with pot

he said it had *basically* the same risk as heroin, which is just objectively false

Like on the freeway near me there are ads for edible products already for sale, apps that help you find pot stores and all of that; what legally is going to happen to those people if the feds crack down? Does creating an ad for pot products and posting it on a bilboard have a different sentance or punishment then being caught selling it?

uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

technically no

because each state was allowed to have pass their own laws on marijuana

but now that, that has been repealed

businesses that were created before the repeal *might* still have legal standing with the federal government, def with the state governments

So in the overlap of this repeal, what happens to those who don't pull their products, or take down their publicly displayed ads on time?

but anything created after is def in jeopardy

Pretty sure if 32 states pass medicinal marijuana or decriminalization of it, there will be nothing the FED can do because the majority of people will outrage over it

If not already

I would assume criminal charges would be filed, but then again the Fed hasn't neccessarily come out and said they were going to remove state's right to have legalized pot

The repeal doesn't neccessarily entail that, unless new information has come out to which I was unaware

@Kori Tainaka if you look throughout the union in general, basically everyone wants pot to be legalized, for whatever reason Sessions seems to have a personal vendetta against it and wants it removed entirely

From what I've read, the Cole Memo was a "guidance document" and not an actual law. I don't know if that affects the outcome of its repeal

Can you get in trouble for advertising or producing a product in the grey time between it being legal and illegal? It's this weird middle ground that I think would be worth looking into; it would be cool to hear from the farmer who started to buy seeds or even plant crops and now has to consider burnning it all. Or the company that has a warehouse of now-illegal product that they can either try to store for a later date secretly or destroy it now to stay safe.

@Deleted User he's probably just one of those old people who thinks one marijuana joint is the equivalent to 20 years of smoking or something

more like taking heroin

idk why he believes this

Like there isn't an evidence that suggests marijuana and heroin are even close to being on the same page, especially since heroins only real medinical use is for numbing pain, but we have plenty of other stuff for that

so we obviously don't need it
