Its projects a nervousness about their own child/children future actions honestly. If you are secure in how you raised your children then fringe events like the comments of Ms Beckham and Ms Wallace directed to would never be made.

I am a parent a couple time over, and I would NEVER revel in another's child's misfortune.

You all should find her a job first. Just saying. Baby steps and all. You can all celebrate your 6-6 seasons with the bubbly after things are proper.

SUNDAY UPDATE

Green-Beckham's adoptive father, Joe Beckham, said in a text-message statement released to the Springfield News-Leader and St. Louis Post-Dispatch that the receiver's family is "very confident" the incident will not result in any charges filed against Green-Beckham. Missouri team spokesman Chad Moller, in a text, said the team is "aware of the situation and working to learn more."

Missouri athletic department policy dictates that an athlete who is charged with a felony is suspended from team activities until the case is resolved. A felony conviction leads to dismissal.

I have a 21 year old son. He's a good kid; about to graduate in engineering. But he's perfectly capable of this kind of dumbassery...and so are most of his friends!

That's just from today? I could have sworn I read yesterday the parents comment and the 'team aware' part and was thinking it came out before the 'pound of weed' story came out but I very well could be wrong about the last part.

FIFY

Seriously, they will find a way to make it less than a felony for DGB. You know, I know, and HE KNEW the weed was there.

Seriously, do you think you or I would get off if caught in the same identical situation? Not very likely.

I'm not reveling in his dumbassery. Had it made. In some danger of screwing it all up.

I'm all for legalization, and cool with smoking to a point, but a pound of weed is just dumb. He deserves to get kicked IMO.

U of M has a top rated school of journalism. I'm guessing that's not his major.

I can't believe any politically conservative / Bible belt state would pass pro-marijuana laws.

What coalition is forming to make that happen?

The NWA region thinks they can swing the vote. Eureka and Nam think the hippies will out vote the baptist.

Medical M was voted down in 2012 and they are trying to put it back on the ballot this year. The AG endorses the initiative.

need wmr in here, he has all the info on it. I just know the margin was slim and that's because of some group called Family First that pumped a shite load of money in to defeat it. only so many times they'll be able to fight it.

I've thought for years that the ganj should be legalized. If the federal government could figure out a way to regulate it so they could get all the money (ie, you couldn't grow your own), I think it would be legal. Legalize it and tax it, it would put a huge dent in the national debt!

Here is a current story about the status of the measures. LINK

While the AG has a duty to approve or reject ballot titles as a result of their wording I'm not aware of him "endorsing" any initiatives.

Usually the stance you see among the seekers of the higher offices is that they are opposed to the measures or at least try to be non-committal but that if the will of the people is that marijuana should be legalized then they will respect the will of the people.

Endorse -- "declare one's public approval or support of."
The AG is approving/endorsing the initiative. I didn't say he was endorsing/approving it's passage.

Same as abortion.

Politicos will say they're against it - and I'm sure many are - but it's been status quo for decades.

Fair enough and we're on the same page here. I believe when McDaniel was actually running for Governor he opposed such measures on policy grounds. I do think some groups have the impression when an AG approves a ballot title he is actually saying he is in supportive of the passage of the measure and you sometimes run into the same thing when gathering signatures from individuals to have a measure or candidate placed on a ballot. Some think they're committed to or saying that they are by their signature in favor of the candidate/measure when such isn't the case.

Yes, generally lots of fine line walking among the politicians on emotionally charged measures to try and pander to every base to insure their political survival.
