As a country is this really want we want? To spend 50 Billion a year on fueling an enormous Law Enforcement bureaucracy, the militarization of police departments as they seize the rational for well this is why we need an armored personal carrier to enforce the drug warrant on a non violent marijuana offenders; and the civil asset forfeiture that comes along with it.

She has been encouraging Republican strategists for years, and they are finally getting on board. “We can’t arrest our way out of marijuana use and we shouldn’t want to. The last 80+ years have proven Prohibition doesn’t work and most kids can get it easier than their parents can.

Hi, I’m Daniel Almond, and I’m running for the Georgia General Assembly seat 159 in the Republican Primary. I support full cannabis legalization as part of a much needed and aggressive agenda to reform the state’s justice system and reduce the size and scope of government. I served 8 years in the US Marine Corps including combat tours in Iraq, and worked as a certified Corrections Officer in the state of Georgia for 3 years. I have also worked as a licensed Real Estate Agent and have an Associate Degree in Culinary Arts from Le Cordon Bleu in Atlanta. I live in Effingham County with my wife and three daughters.

The study used and quoted by Kevin Sabet and Patrick Kennedy of SAM (smart approach to marijuana) often in interviews said, ” that early marijuana use lowers the users I.Q. by several points”. Opponents to marijuana reform are seriously running out of angles but not out of money. The battle for freedom and justice continues.
