Never has a major party presidential candidate come out for legalization before. Now both candidates in this race have done it. This is very exciting!

But seriously,
Now let’s see the orange crime lord and his cult do some shitty mental gymnastics trying to catch up.

What that would do is allow banking and interstate commerce though some states would likely still ban it (the Devil’s Lettuce and Satan’s Salad crowd).
Reminder: Weed is only hazardous to donut and pizza supplies vs already legal alcohol. Some people can’t handle either but they’ll likely get in trouble with another potentially worse intoxicant.

Finally! This is such a no brainer. No one needs to be going to jail for marijuana

Cue the MAGA crowd screaming about how she prosecuted people for it in the past.
Yes, morons, that was her job, to apply the law as written at the time.

Very happy to see this and definitely a good move by her! Hopefully they can make more progress with it on a federal level

Yannow what’s sad about our electoral system is I look at this headline and I know that this position is nationally popular, but then I am worried how popular is it in the 7 swing states that will decide the election. I would hope it is popular there too, but who tf knows with Pennsyltucky.
Still though, glad she is embracing this position. It’s also nice knowing that I can be confident she will be able to communicate why this positioning and this issue is important.

MAGA: she’s only doing this because it’s hugely popular and will get her votes
Meanwhile MAGA Governors: we’ll ban Pornhub. That should be popular with our pornbrained fanbase

Not really substantially different though since the federal government can’t really force things to be legal in states, so the most that can probably be done is decriminalization at the federal level

I wonder how many people want to legalize machine guns but not legalize pot.

I’ve been a defense attorney for a very long time. I’d love to hear about what a “violent” marijuana related offense is lol

There it is. The fancy bow for her campaign. Take the layup, Kamala. For the amount of tax money it brings, Legalization is a no-brainer.

Where cannabis is already legal in the US, the market is 33.6 Billion. That’s a good sized industry.

About time. There is literally no reason weed should be illegal when alcohol is legal.
None. At all. I haven’t even heard a serious argument that makes an ounce of sense.

Yes please. Put this issue to bed already. The prohibition on weed is stupid, costly and racist. Its time to move on

She has my vote totally and I agree with her, but legal mj has been the dangling carrot every election forever, including Biden who hasn’t done it.

Canadian here: do it, it’s great! You may be overrun by weed shops though. I live in a city of 60,000 and we’ve got like 10 weed shops. You’re never far from a joint here, that’s for sure.

Finally, just make it legal and tax it already. Don’t put up a ton of red tape to set up a legal dispensary. Everyone wins, new businesses and jobs, more tax revenue and cops can go look for actual crime.
Everyone except private prisons win. Fuck private prisons anyway, what a revolting “business.”

Obviously this isn’t an endorsement of the treasonous raper but as an AUSA I was able to avoid marijuana cases on principle and I just wouldn’t effectively prosecute them. While she is saying she’ll change her view to fit in with the times, she did have no problem imprisoning people for a non-addictive plant that cures more maladies than nearly every prescription drug yet threatens their profit margin.
