The parts where they are going to:

  1. imprison people for plant ingestion and possession
  2. mandate charges and sentences
  3. enrich and support the for-profit prison industry
  4. potentially tie gun ownership, employment, and benefits to the use of a plant as medicine or for recreation
  5. continue to support the predatory poison peddling industries of alcohol and pharma
  6. etc
