    It should be fully legalized. Decriminalization is a good start though. My understanding is that the City Council approved this 15-0.https://twitter.com/ShaunKing/status/914962988469248001 …

    Very proud of the City Council in my hometown of Atlanta for just voting to decriminalize marijuana possession for under 1 ounce. A start.

        Favorite thing about you, Shaun, is you always have one eye on True North and another on the little victories. That's what leadership is.

        It's beyond me how alcohol is legal and marijuana is not. Alcohol is far more dangerous and destructive.

        Decriminalization is a great start. Good for smokers and good for cops and courts. Saves taxpayers tons of money.

        We've been recreationally legal in Oregon for over two years now and the worst thing is dispensary billboards. No good reason to be anti-pot

        Never Should Have Been Illegal. No lives have been saved. Decrim is like hating your neighborhood then moving across the street.

        They outright lied about members of the public not wanting to comment. They were turned away!

        Someone I know has been battling with Brentwood for a while over this. There are patients suffering because they can't get deliveries.

        Most who get deliveries aren't able to drive to a dispensary due to medical reasons, so the delivery ban hurts the patients who need it most

        Our government is selling it next year; but only the Cdn Gov't will have this license to sell.
