Legalize Marijuana in Oklahoma



Hello,



This is a petition to fully legalize marijuana in the state of Oklahoma. Prisons are over-populated with non-violent offenders and many tax dollars are being spent on processing and preventing crime related to the plant. It's clear that the current prohibition laws are ineffective. Marijuana should be legalized for growth and private consumption as well as for manufacturing products that could be derived from the plant or its seeds. The therapeutic potential of marijuana is great, and it's Hemp characteristics open up a wide range of industrial possibilities (i.e. fuel alternatives, paper, beauty supplies). The legalization of marijuana would also certainly lead to taxation of goods produced from it, which would provide excellent economic benefit. I strongly urge you to sign this petition to legalize marijuana in the state of Oklahoma. Thank you.
