Decriminalization is supported by a majority of adults in every single state in the country. The US House this year passed a decriminalization bill by 220 to 204. Of the 220 votes to decriminalize, 217 came from one party and 3 from the other. Keeping pot illegal is good for the private prison industry and gives law enforcement another tool to ensnare minorities. White use of weed is equal or higher than Black use. But arrests and convictions are higher in Black people. Wonder why that would be? Nothing to see here, move along.
