LEGALIZE CANNABIS 2022!!! How does a horrible drug like alcohol get a pass? Alcohol kills thousands of people every year destroys families. Marijuana deaths zero, no one has ever overdosed on Marijuana. I believe God makes no mistakes and if he made a medicinal plant like Marijuana it must be for a reason. This is America, land of the free and if one wishes to smoke a little cannabis it should be their choice not the governments. Makes me sad that many politicians smoke marijuana but many people in society can get fired for having marijuana in their system on a drug test. Its Time for Change.
