I would agree to a point. if you had enough for personal use, then release. but if you have an intent to distribute then you stay in jail

I don't. they still committed crimes when it was illegal. don't do the crime, if you can't do the time. what's more tho, I don't think anyone should go to jail for weed, but that was the law and they knowingly broke it. gotta pay the consequences

I would never by weed from a dispensary. Once the government gets their hands on it, it's over.You better be careful, because some of these places are selling fake weed

The reason the government gets mad at street dealers for selling marijuana is because they can't get a dollar out of the deal in other words tax the major suppliers so they lock you up for any amount you have

I would agree with you if they hadn't broken a law it was the law then and they broke it then so a crime is a crime today if they get caught maybe not but they still broke them all

I agree wholeheartedly. It was afarse in the first place. How many judges, congressman, senators, president's and on and on who continued to use even though it was deemed illegal. We put up with too much b/s.

I disagree. They were locked up when it was still a crime. Therefore, they committed a crime and should stay in prison

It would be nice if they could do that. But the laws were set in place back then with They're sentencing.I do believe they'd have to finish most of their sentence before they be released but i'm not a hundred percent sure.

Marijuana does not cause more lung cancer than cigarettes. Tobacco smoke contains many carcinogens and has a stronger link to lung cancer. Cigarette users typically smoke more frequently than marijuana users. Research on marijuana's link to lung cancer is ongoing, and no conclusive evidence exists to equate its risk with cigarettes. However, smoking any substance can irritate the lungs, so moderation and caution are advised to minimize potential health risks.

yeah what about those of us that did our time for possession of marijuana they releasing people early then they better start compensating those of us that did our time

it doesn't work like that, it was illegal and a crime then so they get punished for breaking the law, even though people eventually made it legal, it doesn't change the fact that the law was broken when it was illegal. this comment isn't to say that they should stay in jail or prison, just an explanation as to how the justice system would see it.
