I have a positive view of Harris and this is the first time I've encountered this line of criticism. She doesn't sound like an "anti-drug warrior" [1]. What examples do you have in mind?

- WildUtah 11y agoHarris was elected DA in San Francisco in a race against DA Terence Hallinan who was famous for soft-pedaling drug user prosecutions. She immediately stepped them up. Harris first started barely supporting medical marijuana after constituencies forced her to recently. She's been giving support to federal prosecutions that target dispensaries for years as DA and AG. She's been saying that she'll tone down drug prosecutions in campaigns and then pushing harder for more vicious enforcement than ever once she gains power in every election she's ever run. And she still doesn't support marijuana legalization. Still! In California in 2016. She's smooth and a good communicator, but Harris is all Feinstein inside.
