        Remember: Jeff Sessions thought the guys in his local KKK chapter were alright until he found out they smoked pot. THEN he denounced them.

        True, but by then Jeff had long walked past the point where any lines would be seen by decent people. Jeff was a non-pot-smoking racist.

        Well, I was being sarcastic, but you're right: Burning crosses is cool, but smoking pot is immoral? I can't even wrap my head around that.

        Actually, history of marijuana being tied to Hispanics/black Americans. Racist undertones to anti-pot legislation from the start.

        Gee, I thought Sessions would try to claim he'd forgotten about insulting my state, just like he somehow forgot meeting Kislyak - twice.
