D.C. Just Decriminalized Marijuana! Another Victory

Today, the Washington, D.C. City Council voted to decriminalize marijuana possession!

The bill, which goes into effect this summer, replaces criminal penalties of up to six months in jail and a $1,000 fine with a civil penalty (similar to a parking ticket) of $25 for possession of up to an ounce of marijuana. It also decriminalizes marijuana paraphernalia.

This means that, outside of Washington and Colorado, marijuana penalties are now less punitive in our nation’s capital than anywhere else in the country!

We should go plant males around the White house to screw up thier grow:) I "think" a more suitable punishment for possesion of mj would be a $500 fine, accompanied by a $700 cheque for undue hardship.
