One of the main reasons why the war on drugs is so harsh on marijuana, when its the most benevolent, non-violent drug you could use, is because Nancy Ragen choose it and cocaine as the two main drugs to police in the 80s. In the 80s, there where shakey politics with Turkey so they couldn't stop the poppy producers from making and bringing heroine to the streets, but the US could however bully our south of the border neighbor Mexico as this was the main country bringing in Cocaine and shitty Mexican weed.
THE WAR ON DRUGS WILL NEVER STOP! ITS A FUCKING ENDLESS CYCLE! Legalize marijuana already and put that money back into our public education system. Sometimes I think marijuana has been legalized already because it's fucking job security for the DEA. There will always be a "war" on drugs so there will always be cops looking to fuck people over.
My girlfriend got arrested for a similiar situation over $4 worth of pot brownies at a music festival and she is facing 2 felonies at 20 years old! I'm fucking over the police bullying people.
