No arrests at White House pot rally

Posted by | April 3, 2016 07:41 | Filed under: Politics


There was lots of inhalation, but no arrests.

When the smoke cleared, nobody was arrested for participating in a large and blatantly illegal marijuana smoke-in outside the White House.

Attendees of the Saturday event, billed as “Reschedule 420” by the D.C. Cannabis Campaign, urged President Barack Obama to take action in his remaining months in office to reschedule marijuana — to allow greater research into its medicinal value — and to pardon jailed pot offenders.

Though many were willing to get arrested, it appeared that just two people, seemingly chosen at random from a smoke-filled crowd, were detained by police. One of them, Lauren Dove, who recently moved to the nation’s capital from Colorado, said both received $25 public consumption tickets.

    Sometimes it’s not even the drugs that’ll kill you man. What really kills you is looking for drugs.

    Wouldn’t it be a great if O rescheduled pot on his way out the door…? It would take the heat off the next pres to for some kind of action or blame for any problems that may be attributed to the change…win win all the way

    Seems in DC being mellow in public is not even a misdemeanor , in Texas it is a Class 1 felon
