Jeff Sessions is a disaster and his stance on Marijuana and civil asset forfeiture is alarming. The marijuana issue has been debated at length here so we won't rehash - the benefits I have seen from living in Denver for 3 years speak for themselves. Tons of tax money, tons of new jobs, etc. etc.



Jeff Sessions is the Attorney General. His job is to enforce laws as they are on the books. I'm all for changing the laws, but I'm not for Jeff Sessions unilaterally making such decisions.
