Third Question: Marijuana has been legalized across over a dozen states in the past decade. Do you support this development?
I support decriminalization. Too many innocent lives are destroyed by the private prison complex. We are actively creating criminals by detaining them for possessing narcotics and wringing them through our justice system, and then releasing them upon the streets.
Marijuana was scheduled as a class 1 narcotic. It was compared to heroin or cocaine, two hard and addictive substances. Clearly the DEA is being disingenuous in their ruling.
