      Were marijuana legal, it could not be cited by police as the reason why their "attention was drawn" to Keith Scott http://www.news-gazette.com/2016-09-24/police-videos-charlotte-shooting-no-gun-apparent-victims-hand.html …pic.twitter.com/VhpOd802lQ

      Marijuana legalization is one blindingly simple policy remedy to prevent violent police encounters; will either candidate endorse it?

      Ironically, police lobbies always vigorously oppose legalization, even though it'd make their jobs "safer" by reducing violent encounters.

          Well, marijuana arrests offer an easy way to meet quotas, boost stats, etc. They're more interested in that than officer safety

          Police states can pay for themselves, but only when there is a sufficient list of petty offences you can fine people for.

          Violent crime has increased in CO, Denver is scary at night now. Our sheriff reports huge increase in youth usage & petty crime.

          it doesn't look like such a good idea from here. Safe neighborhoods now have home breakins, car windows smashed to get $$.

          Agreed. They wouldn't be getting as much money, but they wouldn't be tied up over a plant and could do actual police work.

          it also cuts down the need for them.

          Police like pot laws because it's the easiest way to bust people they've already decided are criminals.
