That’s the response he gave to a Justice Department intern who pressed him on the Trump administration’s handling of the two issues.
“Statistically guns kill significantly more people than marijuana does,” the intern said during a Q & A session with the attorney general. “You support pretty harsh policies for marijuana and pretty lax gun control laws.”
“That’s a apples and oranges question,” Sessions responded. “The Second Amendment — you’re aware of that — guarantees the right of people to keep and bear arms. And I intend to defend that Second Amendment. It’s as valid as the First Amendment. That’s my basic philosophical view about it.” |

Guns good. Marijuana? Meh.
My view is that LIBERTY is good.
If you wanna smoke pot, the gov't should stay the hell out of your way. |

TO REMEMBER |
| Besides the advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation, the existence of subordinate governments, to which the people are attached, and by which the militia officers are appointed, forms a barrier against the enterprises of ambition, more insurmountable than any which a simple government of any form can admit of. Notwithstanding the military establishments in the several kingdoms of Europe, which are carried as far as the public resources will bear, the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms. — James Madison, The Federalist Papers, No. 46 |
