The history of marijuana prohibition in the US starts with a racist Attorney General (Harry J. Anslinger) and his disinformation campaign. The criminalization process continued with the creation of the UN and the international treaties which are why the Federal gov refuses to remove marijuana from the schedule 1 narcotics list. The most horrific part of all this is that people like Sessions will never see the proof from the science, they'll only see what they want, and all this fucker wants to see is more good Americans made into criminals to feed the prison-industrial machine.
I bet, if we followed his money, we'd find out that he's got a direct financial interest in keeping marijuana illegal.
I agree and cannot wait for all these old damn dinosaurs to go extinct!
Really dark ages we currently live in sadly.
It is sad when a country founded on freedom chokes on the very notion of freedom.
