    Manhattan and Brooklyn top the city in marijuana arrests. Their district attorneys want to slash the number of cases that get prosecuted.https://nyti.ms/2GhcQ6h

        It will be legal in Canada on July 01 2018. Wake up USA, stop #BigPharma from poisoning you with chemicals.

        Yeah, that makes a lot of sense. If the work gets a bit too hectic, let’s just change the laws so criminals can have an easier time of things.

        Just make crime legal, then there won't be any crime, is that how it works?

        What’s the matter can’t prosecute actual criminals because the courts are backlogged like the people who did 911

        Arresting people for possession of weed seems dumb and counterintuitive. #LegalizeIt

        Legalizing it on the other hand can bring immense revenue to the state of New York and the city of Manhattan and Brooklyn. That will allow the state to cut taxes, spend more on infrastructure. Percentage of crime and arrests will certainly drop. It's a win win, believe it or not.

        Shouldn't they just change the law? Oh wait, district attorneys can't change the law.
