Anonymous Coward User ID: 15417732 United States 08/05/2022 01:39 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Kamala Harris is being attacked by liberals as her record shows she sentenced people to over 9 years in jail for marijuana! Vice President Kamala Harris was accused of hypocrisy after she decried Brittney Griner’s conviction by Russia on cannabis smuggling charges — despite Harris prosecuting thousands of similar marijuana possession cases in her earlier career as a prosecutor.
But many critics were quick to point out that while serving as both San Francisco’s district attorney and California’s attorney general, she oversaw thousands of marijuana-related prosecutions and was an outspoken critic of pot legalization, as the Daily Mail first reported.
“Brittney Griner got 9 years for drug possession in Russia… which sounds like most of the criminal sentences Kamala Harris got people for the same thing when she was attorney general of California,” author Tim Young tweeted.

Another commenter wrote: “LMAO, didn’t U lock up a s—load of people for weed? Then bragged about it, and went on to say you smoked weed in college listening to Tupac and snoop before they cut their first albums?”
A third fumed in the same vein: “You locked up people for possession of marijuana. And you’re only condemning this because the US cannot profit from her incarceration in Russia.” |

Harris oversaw more than 1,900 marijuana convictions in San Francisco, previously unreported records from the DA’s office show. Her prosecutors appear to have convicted people on marijuana charges at a higher rate than under her predecessor, based on data about marijuana arrests in the city.
Over Harris’ seven years as top prosecutor, her attorneys won 1,956 felony convictions for marijuana possession, cultivation, or sale, according to data from the DA’s office. |

She used them as prison labor. And even went to court to try to make them stay over their sentences because she said they needed them as firefighters because of all the forest fires in Cali.
