  His pardon cracks me up. There’s little “law and order” logic to it.

  And I know he’s basically guilty of the charges because i-errr… some close friends of mine…. Used his platform and got highly quality drugs

    It’s totally insane what is happening here. A drug dealer and criminal gets a presidential pardon (!) and then receives millions of dollars from dark sources and it somehow is ok for Americans?

      It’s okay with me tbh. People are going to use drugs, I’d rather we legalized it, taxed the fuck out of it, and had a way for people to do what they’re already doing in a safer and more regulated way

    “To my friends, everything. To my enemies, the law.”

    This is the only logic to it.

    I agree he’s not a criminal, but I also don’t understand why is it a pardon without abolishing the law by which he was convicted.

    And the way copyright is being treated today, where it’s applied only if you are not a big corp, sucks just as badly.

    In this case at least the guy is not in prison anymore.

  If they can’t prove he did anything wrong, he didn’t

      Didn’t he pay a hitman to murder a couple of people?
