One thing, victim blaming, second thing, probably because the pot industry keeps literally telling everyone it’s legal when it’s actually just unenforceable by federal agencies. As in a federal agent can’t hunt you down and arrest you just for the weed, but they can deny banking services, deny licenses, citizenship, etc.
Do you see dispensaries saying that in their ads? I don’t.
Shit, I get ads on fucking YouTube trying to sell me “totally legal” mail weed that will absolutely get me arrested by my state, even if the Post Service doesn’t narc.
Fun Fact:
Many of the dispensaries in California operate without licenses, which they certainly don’t tell their employees, and the state doesn’t offer a resource to check even if you know this little fact, so California absolutely can and will arrest you for working in a “legal” weed shop.
And, finally, just get fucking real?
They’re not “working in the industry” unless they’re a grower or an owner. They’re a retail employee selling plants.
Now, sure, she, specifically, seems to be in a small business with her husband but even that doesn’t mean she should know the minutiae of federal immigration law in regards to cannabis.
This isn’t like “you shouldn’t have dressed like that” but rather “you shouldn’t have climbed into that gorilla enclosure”.
If I had my way, they’d be an American as soon as they expressed interest. I am a hardline radical for free movement of people and open borders. This specific instance is a no-brainer, though. This was a bad idea.
Touched a nerve, asking for someone to not be stupid or show personal responsibility, it seems…
And not everything is “victim blaming”. The federal government has absolutely created a shit show around pot regulations the past 10 years. That doesn’t mean she wasn’t an idiot.
Contrary to what the echo chamber you’ve been living in is telling you. It is still and always has been possible for two things to be true. There is nothing that excludes both her being an idiot and the government being incompetent from both being true.
And FYI those “YouTube weed sites” are totally legal at federal level. They don’t actually sell weed they sell shit that has less then .03% of THC which is legal. So they are just scams.

Still victim blaming.
You’re not a victim if you cause your own problem.
Victim doesn’t mean “bad thing happened.” Victim means “bad thing happened that happened during to external factors you had no input on”

I believe you are posting in the wrong thread, my dude.
This is about a woman with a green card knowingly breaking federal law and then losing her green card
Still victim blaming.
Bro you can just say “my bad” and not take two Ls
I genuinely believe both of those threads are full of a lot of victim blaming.
