Apparently, legalizing Marijuana in Georgia has been one of his demands before agreeing to come to Georgia.For thefirst time in Georgian history, Parliament unanimously agreed on the temporary legalization of the drug marijuana during the visit of hip hop artist Snoop Dogg. According to government sources, while this was a condition of the famous rapper, the government has welcomed the temporary legalization as an experiment on the potential effects of actual legalization. A special subcommittee chaired by the ministry of environment has been formed to study the effects of legalization on Georgian society and the economy.Georgian Journal managed to get a quote from the rapper himself: izzle shizle Georgianizle weed smokizzle” - He said.
