Dude, he's already said he's stopping prosecuting legal mmj users in states that have such decriminalization laws. I guess it all just comes down to proper education and proof of concept. I saw a Law & Order as well as a Glee episode a few weeks ago when the news spread that they were advocating the use of mmj(well Glee didn't do it too well, kind of made fun of it). If I had to guess, this is just a trial run to see if there's any merit to decriminalizing/legalizing it and IF he does continue it will be later on in his term. Let's hope he does, afterall there's more non-violent mj users/dealers in prison than black people, at least in my state. Lol, not saying blacks should be arrested or anything.

redtails Reviewed by redtails on . Will Obama Legalize Marijuana? The pubic is getting less ignorant about marijuana and once the news of how it has and will benefit California's economy becomes well known. This subject will come up in a lot of political conversations. This will probably be followed by backing for legalization or decriminalization. The question is will Obama have the bravery to support it? Would have McCain? Ganja Wise wants to know what you think. Rating: 5
