It's interesting to imagine how someone who has been to jail for possession must feel when that substance is decriminalized.

It's nice to see people finally coming to their senses about this.

Great point. Although they won't have a legal argument, how much would it suck to be sitting in jail on a mj charge while mj is legalized? At the same time, the very valid argument that "you can't break a law just because you don't like it" can be made.

Serious question, how many first time offenders caught with amounts less than an oz (anything above is pretty reasonable to suspect dealing with the current system, at least in LA) actually get prison time vs just some kind of pre-trial intervention program?

One of the biggest reasons they should have decriminalized pot a long time ago. It is a huge burden on the taxpayers. A crazy percentage of people in jail are in there because of pot. I honest to God do not smoke either, I just think it is ridiculous that pot is illegal for someone to smoke in their house if they want to.

I dont know about today- but in my college days I knew lots of people getting popped. only two saw a jail cell: one had 45 pounds of weed. yes 45 pounds. the other had a couple sheets of acid along with weed.

Part of me thinks he is jumping on a popular platform to further whatever is next in his career. Legalize this and prostitution and fricking profit.

regardless if it is legal in the future, you should be punished for committing a crime.

even if weed were legalized, would those people in jail on petty weed possession crimes even be released?
