22 years? Yeah that is disheartening.

There are several states in the South and Midwest that possession of marijuana can land you life in prison. That's potentially a 70 year sentence for a young adult.

Yet these jackasses can attempt to overthrow the US Government and install an unelected dictator and the longest sentence we've seen yet is only 22 fucking years?

Yeah it is disheartening to see the hundreds that got off with house arrest, probation, or even at best landed behind bars for only a year or so.

Can’t believe the sentencing for weed is still so strong. Like who gives a fuck, just legalize the shit already. I think that most of us can agree that alcohol has just as much of not more potential for harm than weed does and that’s legal.

Not only is alcohol legal, it was made legal again after its own failed prohibition.

Yes, but have you considered that if we legalize weed, Satan might get your kids?

/s

That’s because Jesus drank wine but did not smoke a joint.

Moses was burning that bush all night though

I agree. Christians should rethink interpretation of that passage.

Or maybe he did - who knows? I know there’s a burning bush in the Bible - maybe it was a metaphor for smoking that good stuff XD

Anyone who tries to argue that weed is as or more dangerous that alcohol is not doing so in good faith.

Groups of people who like weed being illegal; Police unions, private prison owners, beer/wine/spirit producers, pharmaceutical companies, cartels, private rehab clinics

Especially when in som part of the country it's perfectly fine. So much for the united part

Also there's the case of Chaya Raichik, who is now a star of the far-right...
