It’s time for me to climb up on my soapbox and start lecturing everyone about weed again. I try not to do this very often, because I know about the law of diminishing returns, but I still feel this is an important issue. As we all know, many states have legalized medical cannabis. A few states have also legalized recreational cannabis. These are all great developments, but it still isn’t enough. The federal government still considered marijuana to be a dangerous drug, which means any one of us could still face jail time under the right circumstances. Currently there are thousands of people sitting in jail because of violating antiquated cannabis laws, and this is not fair! Recently the president of the United States said that there would be a limited amnesty for cannabis offenders. Once again, this is great news, and a step in the right direction, but still isn’t enough! All cannabis laws need to be stricken down, and anyone currently incarcerated because of weed needs to be immediately released, and their records expunged. We need to erase these cannabis convictions, so these folks can have clean records going forward. I think the last few years have clearly demonstrated that the American people support legalized cannabis, so it’s time for the Feds to do likewise. I don’t care if it’s the President or not, but someone needs to step forward and say that there is nothing wrong or immoral about cannabis, and there never has been. Cannabis laws are unjust and cruel, and they should all be eliminated forever.
