Legalization on a Federal level is what's badly needed.

Republicans are the problem in that regard, they fear Federal legalization of marijuana almost as much as they fear the electoral college deciding presidents being abolished and vast majority of popular votes wins the presidency

What a great governor. It proves that people really can work together if the issue isn't politicized. The fact that law enforcement came in on the deal shows that they are tired of dealing with this type of case and would rather be coping with more serious criminals. Hooray for Maryland, lets hope others will follow their lead.

@BePatient888 Месяц назад

How do you make a substance legal, and still keep people in jail over it? That's just not MORALLY right. And, let's get real. Marijuana has been effectively LEGAL for a certain segment of the population (affluent White users). More states, who have passed recreational marijuana laws, need to do the same.

I got a great super smart brilliant idea 💡, how about legalized marijuana on a federal level instead of tip toeing to that area on a very slow and dragged out manner

@MyHalcyonDaysAreHere Месяц назад

Likely due to its stigma, a backlash that's unmanageable might just happen, people need to get used to the idea. Some legalizing process on controversial issues take a generation, even a century for touchy social issues. Women's rights, etc.

The fines were legal at the time. Your money is irrelevant. if you get a traffic ticket and then they change the law do you get your money back? Of course not because you were charged under an existing law. Stop whining and take the win.
