When cannabis was 合法化するd in New York earlier this year, NYC 市長 市長 法案 de Blasio said: 'This is about 権利ing a wrong. This is about turning the page on a 人種差別主義者 法律 that 不公平に 的d 黒人／ボイコット and brown communities for １０年間s. 傷をいやす／和解させるing begins now in our 明言する／公表する.'?

Hollywood stoner Seth Rogen also （刑事）被告 Team USA of '人種差別主義', tweeting Friday that 'the notion that 少しのd is a problematic "麻薬" is rooted in 人種差別主義.'?

However, 大統領 Biden 支援するd the 決定／判定勝ち（する） to 禁止（する） her, telling CBS News reporter?Bo Erickson: 'The 支配するs are the 支配するs and everybody knows what the 支配するs were going in.?

Richardson has わびるd to fans, but says she only used マリファナ to help 対処する with the death of her 生物学の mother before the Olympic 裁判，公判s in?Oregon, where Nike's 全世界の HQ is based.?

'I just say don't 裁判官 me because I am human,' she told NBC's Today on Friday. 'I'm you, I just happen to run a little faster.'?

Richardson explained that she learned about her 生物学の mother's passing from a reporter's question during an interview days before she 設立するd herself as a gold メダル 競争相手 by winning the 100-メーター dash in 10.86 seconds at the US Olympic 裁判，公判s in Eugene, Oregon on June 19.

Afterwards, Richardson said she used マリファナ in an 'emotional panic', 主要な to the failed 麻薬 実験（する） that was 明らかにする／漏らすd after her 1 00-メーター 勝利，勝つ.

'I knew I was having an interview,' she said Friday. 'I was just thinking it would be a normal interview.

And no 罪／違反 against him at all. He was just doing his 職業. But definitely, that put me in a 明言する／公表する of mind, in a 明言する／公表する of emotional panic, if anything.'

But Richardson was not using her mother's death to excuse her 決定／判定勝ち（する）. マリファナ is 合法的な in Oregon, so she didn't break any 法律, but she did know the 可能性のある consequences of using the 麻薬.

'I want to わびる for our 活動／戦闘s,' she said. 'I know what I did. I know what I'm supposed to do. What I'm 許すd not to do and I still made that 決定／判定勝ち（する）. But [I'm] not making an excuse or looking for any empathy in my 事例／患者.'

A 肯定的な マリファナ 実験（する） carries a 30-day 中断 from the World Anti-麻薬ing 機関, which will keep Richardson from competing in the 100 メーター dash at the Tokyo Games on July 29. However, her 支援する-時代遅れの 禁止（する） would 許す her to run in the 4x100 relay on August 6, if she is 選ぶd to do so by USA 跡をつける and Field.

'If I'm 許すd to receive that blessing [to compete in Tokyo] then I'm 感謝する for it,' Richardson said. 'But if not, 権利 now I'm just going to 焦点（を合わせる） on myself.'?

A steroid 中断 would have been more 厳しい, but as Richardson explained, that's not a 関心 with her and she 推定する／予想するs to partake in 未来 オリンピック.

'This is just one Game,' she said. 'I'm 21. I'm very young. Unlike most, I have plenty of Games left in me to compete in and I have plenty of talent that 支援するs me up because of everything I do comes to me 自然に, no steroid or anything. This 出来事/事件 was about マリファナ. So after my 許可／制裁 is u p, I'll be 支援する and able to compete and everything. Next time I step on the 跡をつける, I'll be ready for whatever anti-麻薬ing 機関s to come and get whatever they need.'

'This was an 独立した・無所属 決定／判定勝ち（する） made by the U.S. Anti-麻薬ing 機関 and not, not, a 決定／判定勝ち（する） that would be made by the U.S. 政府, as is appropriate,' Psaki said.?

Like all '実体s of 乱用', cannabis remains 禁じるd in 競争 and unless an 競技者 can 証明する that they ingested cannabis outside of 競争, they would still be 支配する to a two year 禁止（する）.?

A 肯定的な 実験（する） result would 要求する an 競技者 to have more than 150 nanograms per milliliter of THC in their system.

If 競技者s can 証明する that their ingestion of the 実体 was 関係のない to sports 業績／成果 then a 中断 of three months rather than the usual four years is 課すd.?
