Time and time again, the world comes back on this topic. We wonder why cannabis was made illegal in the first place when science has always proven it to be safe. Why, federal government, is cannabis illegal when substances like alcohol and nicotine are not? Is it not the right of the people to decide when safety is not at stake to decide how they live?

Cannabis has been proven safe through comprehensive studies, but denied to those who need it through politics. It's time to remove this injustice, expunge prior crimes related to cannabis, and allow medical and adult (21+) use at the federal level. These laws are antiquated and an embarrassment to what is otherwise an incredible and free country.

Let's make a change.
