Thank God for second chances. God bless you Governor

@MsJanetWood 22 дня назад

I think that all the states that have legalized marijuana should do that. It doesn't make sense to keep someone in prison for something that is now legal.

But it was illegal when they did it If I got a ticket for doing 68 in a 55 but they raise it to 70 what then?

@LoraDavis-oo9xz 22 дня назад

Thank God! At last. MJ is legal now and should have been then. Even today in legal Colorado, people can't even get a job because they have a criminal record. Don't JUST release them. Clear their names.

Why did it take this long? Didn't MD totally legalize this last year? This has been a tragedy for many decades. So many lives ruined. ...... Ok. I see now. They wanted to try and do the best job with this possible and get it through the legislature, etc.
