It's not because of the weed. It's because of the women. Society doesn't hold women accountable for shit they do intoxicated unless the double standard would be so flagrant as to cause bigger problems (DUI law type shit usually).

out of their state and they were fine with that.Denver officials set wanted man free after Arkansas sheriff refused to get him
Aman wanted in Arkansas for allegedly violating his probation in a 2017 murder case has twice been arrested and jailed in Denver since 2021, and both times, Denver authorities have had to release him from custody. In the most recent case in 2023, an Arkansas sheriff refused to have Raffiel Walker, 35, extradited to his state.
As a result of Walker remaining free in Denver, a mother believes Walker sold her son fentanyl in 2023, contributing to her son's overdose death.
"If Mr. Walker had been extradited to Arkansas and given the sentence they're requesting, he would not have been trolling the streets of Denver passing out poison," said the mother, who asked that her name not be used.
According to Arkansas records, Raffiel Walker was arrested in 2016 for residential burglary and terroristic threatening in Marianna, Arkansas. He allegedly robbed a woman in her home and brandished a weapon during the robbery.

The following year, Walker was arrested and initially charged with capital murder for participating in a Jan. 30, 2017 robbery and murder. Court documents indicate Walker later agreed to a plea bargain, pleading guilty in 2018 to second-degree murder and accepting a sentence of 20 years probation.
But in 2019, in Phillips County Arkansas, Walker was charged with allegedly dealing methamphetamines and cocaine and brandishing weapons. In 2021, Prosecutors in Arkansas' First Judicial District sought and obtained a nationwide warrant for Walker's arrest for violating the terms of his probation. According to court documents, they said his violating probation should result in him being sent to prison.
Arkansas authorities said they believed Walker had fled their state.
But in April of 2021, Denver police arrested Walker after he allegedly pointed a gun at another man during a drug sale. Police located Walker in a car at Colfax and Josephine and "Officers discovered that Walker had an outstanding nationwide full extradition warrant out of Arkansas for a parole violation from a capital murder/robbery case," according to police documents. They say at that point, Walker ran from them but he was located hiding on the roof of a nearby building and was taken into custody.
Police say they found a loaded handgun in Walker's car. They say Walker's backpack contained a large amount of methamphetamine and other drugs. He was charged with drug possession with intent to distribute, possession of a weapon by a previous offender along with his nationwide parole violation for capital murder/robbery.
Denver District Attorney Beth McCann told CBS News Colorado that Arkansas authorities were notified that their wanted fugitive was being held in Denver. But she said Arkansas authorities failed to meet a legal deadline to file paperwork to extradite Walker to Arkansas.
"They were too late so we couldn't process the extradition," said McCann. "Obviously, we felt this is a person who should not be out in public. We felt he was a dangerous person."
Denver prosecutors agreed to a plea bargain with Walker on his Denver charges, but say they asked that he be imprisoned for three years. Instead, court records show a judge gave Walker three years of probation and no additional jail time. Walker was a free man.
In 2023, Walker again got on the radar screen of Colorado law enforcement authorities following the April death of Calvin Grace from a drug overdose. Grace was found dead in his Englewood home. When police searched Grace's cellphone, they found before his death, he had exchanged text messages with a suspected drug dealer. Englewood police said the cellphone texting with Grace was linked to Raffiel Walker.
Arapahoe County District Attorney John Kellner said, "This case is part of an active, ongoing criminal investigation. I currently have a dedicated criminal investigator reviewing the facts surrounding Calvin's death."
Walker has not been charged in connection with Calvin Grace's death and Kellner said he would provide additional information at the end of his office's review of the case.
Grace's mother is convinced Walker sold her son the fentanyl that contributed to his death. She says the fact Walker was not extradited to Arkansas after his 2021 Denver arrest is "absolutely unacceptable. I'm just at a loss and mind blown by what is happening."
That was not the end of the attempts to have Walker extradited to Arkansas.
In September 2023, Denver police again arrested Walker according to police and court records on his fugitive warrant. The Denver District Attorney's Office says it again contacted the Lee County sheriff to come get Raffiel Walker. This time, they say current Lee County Sheriff Corey Wilson, refused. Wilson did not respond to numerous phone calls and emails from CBS News Colorado asking why he would not pick up Walker. Denver authorities say they had no choice but to release Walker from jail.
"What kind of message does this send to Mr. Walker?" asked Grace's mother. "That he can just run away, he can just hide in another state and he's safe and never going to jail and never being held accountable for his prior crimes?"
"It's unfortunate Arkansas decided not to extradite him given the seriousness of their case. I can say it is unusual and our expectation was that they would pursue extradition," said McCann.
Walker isn't exactly hiding in Denver. CBS News Colorado found him living in a house just south of downtown Denver. He has lived in the home for nearly a year and even registered a catering business with the Colorado Secretary of State using his name and his home address.
In a phone call with CBS News Colorado, Walker said, "I got in a little trouble. I know that." But he said it was "none of your business. I don't have to explain it to you. I'm in trouble already." He went on to say he did not consent to having his name and picture on TV. "Do what you're gonna do bro," said Walker.
Calvin Grace's mother said what happened with Raffiel Walker is "an absolute failure of our system, an absolute failure. Apprehending him and putting him in custody will not bring my son back but it will save other lives."

Students can use whichever bathroom they identify with, regardless of their biological sex. Thanks SCOTUS! 
The U.S. Supreme Court is upholding the ruling of a federal court of appeals about transgender students using bathrooms that align with their gender identity.
Because of this ruling, the law now permits transgender students to use restrooms that fit with their gender identity, even if it does not align with their biological anatomy.
A federal court of appeals passed the ruling last week after the submission of an appeal to the initial judgment by an Indiana school district.
A school board in the Indiana school district refuses to allow one of their middle school students access to the boys’ restroom. The student’s family then filed a lawsuit against the school district for an infringement on their child’s rights.
An appeals court would later overturn the ban and insist that authorities of the school concerned allow the student to use the restroom that aligns with their gender identity. However, the school board would not sit still as they decided to approach the Supreme Court for an appeal.
Unfortunately, the Supreme Court is telling off the school board and asking them to reinstate the student to their preferred restroom in the school facility.
The case file only identifies the said student as A.C. According to A.C.’s mother, the child was born with female anatomy. However, at age 8, A.C. was diagnosed with gender dysphoria and had to undergo gender-specific care. Eventually, A.C. received treatment with puberty blockers, and legal changes were also made to his identification documents in consonance with his transition.
However, upon resuming at John R. Wooden Middle School, A.C.’s parents requested their child to use the boy’s bathroom. The request was escalated to the school board in charge of the Metropolitan School District of Martinsville. They outrightly turned down the request.
Instead, the District board provided A.C.’s family with two options. One, he could use the girls’s bathroom, or two, he could proceed to the single-user restroom at the school’s health office. The latter option is as good as subtly asking A.C. to report sick each time he needs to use the bathroom.
This arrangement did not go down well with A.C.’s mother. Besides, she claims that the discrimination left her child sad, humiliated, and distraught. In the long run, the discrimination affected A.C.’s academic performance.
The eventual ruling of the Supreme Court on the case revolves around the 1972 federal civil rights law. According to the law, schools must not discriminate against anyone in their jurisdiction based on their sex.
However, Martinsville officials tried to emphasize the specifics of the 1972 law, which allows schools to designate bathrooms using the biological sex of students. That portion of the law is called Title IX.
However, the Supreme Court adopted the precedence of a previous ruling on the violation of transgender workers’ rights. The ruling affirms that any form of discrimination against transgender workers is similar to job discrimination based on sex.

Aladdin and the Wonderful Lamp
Disney may have made this into a kids film, but the story of Aladdin does perpetuate stereotypes. Not only does the main character start as a thief, it also paints the image of the Orient as one place, skipping over the diverse cultures present in Asian societies.
Cinderella
This story, whilst innocent in its intentions, has been said to emphasize the princesses’ fairness as the ideal form of beauty, this is especially true in some versions. Inadvertently, this reduces the appreciation for diverse beauty standards.
Peter Pan
Whilst this may be another treasured classic, the way in which Native Americans are portrayed isn’t. Here Native Americans are shown to be simple-minded people, further encouraging harmful stereotypes regarding their speech, behavior and culture.
The Little Mermaid
In some versions of this story, the social hierarchy of the sea characters subtly reflects real life societal racial structures with some sea creatures being deemed as “lesser” due to their appearances.
Hansel and Gretel
The story of Hansel and Gretel is a cautionary tale that teaches kids to keep their wits about them. However, its portrayal of the witch and Romani people reflects negative stereotypes that are still present in modern-day Europe.
Rumpelstiltskin
We all know the story of Rumpelstiltskin and the trickery he used to steal a child before receiving his comeuppance. However, the tales’ themes of cunning and greed when linked with the antagonists’ portrayal reflect biases prevalent against Jews in medieval Europe.
Snow White
Just like her fellow princess, Cinderella, the color of Snow White’s skin is often highlighted as her defining beauty trait. This suggests that only those that have the same skin color as her can be as beautiful.
The Seven Chinese Brothers
This story has met criticism due to the fact that it glosses over the rich Chinese culture. It also implies that all Chinese people look alike, pushing a narrative that is both untrue and harmful.
The Golliwog Stories
Whilst this was a popular soft toy for children decades ago, it has not aged well. Since its creation, its appearance has since been scrutinized for its insensitive portrayal of black people.
Tintin in the Congo
Tintin is a well-recognized book series, however, not all the stories are so innocent. Tintin in the Congo paints the people of African cultures as naive and simple-minded, whilst showing Tintin as a superior white person from Western civilization.
Babar the Little Elephant
Another story that serves to reiterate colonial views subtly. This tells the story of Babar who returns to the jungle bringing with him his European customs, clothing and governance, implying that they are superior to his culture.
The Story of Little Black Sambo
This story was well received at the time of publication, but now that we can look back and reflect we can see the names and depictions present South Indians in a demeaning light, serving to reiterate colonial views.
Puss in Boots
One fairy tale that surprisingly has hidden racist implications is that of Puss in Boots. In this story, the ogre is shown to be barbaric, showing the idea that Europeans had of people that came from “other” cultures and lands.
Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves
This tale is about treacherous thieves that get ahead by using deceit gives way to negative stereotypes about people that come from Middle Eastern cultures, implying that they steal and lie.
Rapunzel
The first thing that comes to mind when Rapunzel is mentioned is her long golden hair. Many critics state that Rapunzel promotes a Eurocentric beauty standard. Implying that only western people could aspire to be as beautiful.
The Princess and the Pea
The tale of the Princess and the Pea tells the story of a young princess facing a test. However, due to its focus on a European standard of nobility, it unintentionally devalues other cultural norms of royalty.
The Emperor’s New Clothes
In the story of the Emperor’s New Clothes, the emperor is mocked when wearing non-European clothing in front of other people. This subtly pushes the idea that Eurocentric fashion is superior, reducing cultural diversity.
