While the federal government still blindly refuses to acknowledge that cannabis has any medicinal value, not all of its employees are fooled into believing the lie that legalizing the plant will do more to harm the public than what has been done under the guise of the “War on Drugs.”

Congressman Carlos Curbelo, a Republican from Florida, took to Twitter to call out Attorney General Jeff Sessions’ war on cannabis in states that have voted to legalize it. He noted that by supporting interference from federal agencies, Sessions is proving that he has no respect for states’ right.

Friend is better to legalize and have control than to observe the lack of control that currently exists. They are policies that must be taken in the short term and as a trial and error that must be practiced. Regards!

Good work.

I visited some friends in Oregon recently and was able to witness the cannabis craze first hand while there. First up, there are pop up shops on nearly every other corner and people who I never imagined would ever use cannabis are using it more and more. My personal thoughts on this are that it should be legalized nationwide as I do think cannabis is a lot less dangerous than alcohol. I'm not stating that it is good for you but in sake of the argument as to whether or not it should be legalized, there are a lot of more harmful things out there that are legal so why is there so much hatred towards cannabis. I believe that Jeff Sessions might be using this as a distraction as this topic has been making a lot of news recently but no action has been done that actually follows up his opinions on the matter. It would be too difficult to make it illegal again as the majority of society has changed their thoughts on the once illegal drug and people are seeing it as a normal part of society.
