Smh at people not realizing that when you place certain barriers to entry that you KNOW will deny access for the majority of people belonging to a certain demographic, it's the same thing as saying "N, F off this ain't for you". Same way instead of schools that didn't allow blacks 40 years ago simply slap a price tag on it that most blacks can't afford. Accomplish the same goal, more efficient, and get to hide behind political correctness.

Henn just posted that the actual legal side of it that has sustainability and growth outlook are definitely white. Answer is to work hard as hell for a business or whatever. Then literally hand it over to black folks. If your parents stole something from mine in which you're now clearly benefitting from, the only right thing to do is give it back. It's a different conversation amongst us as black folks though, for we shouldn't EXPECT anything to be given to us. Just have to go out and get it/take it.

VICELAND covers this very well on Weediqutte. 

A lot of people got busted doing illegal deals to raise required capital to launch a dispensary. Minimum cost is like $500k-1M.

American's drug laws have been used to terrorize poor, minority and especially black communities.

I have no problem with dudes feeling a kinda way that the face of the recreational pot movement seems to be affluent white people, but communities have already been destroyed, lives ruined, are disproportionately much browner. On a national level, criminal justice reforms seem to be discussed separate from the legalization issue and no damages will be paid to the people that have been most affected by old laws.

And lol @ "black entrepreneurs not having the knowledge/resources but only PARTIALLY due to past injustices and systematic racism." When people understand that it's practically ALL due to past injustices and systematic racism. Without that, we wouldn't even be here talking about this. We'd be in our own land, governing ourselves, and selling natural resources to the western world/white people in which they use it for everything they create in order to help them survive. Once that's recognized, the responsibility and accountability would be very apparent to white folks ASSUMING that a moral conscious existed. Simple.

I know dozens of white folk who were and still are locked up for either "intending to distribute" or "trafficking" class D.

I get where you're coming from, but you should be preaching for big corporations and government to keep their hands off, not mom and pop white hippies. That's just ridiculous.

Lol
