And so it was that activists from the DC Cannabis Coalition convened at the office of Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-AL), Trump’s nominee for Attorney General, to discuss the Senator’s recent remarks that “good people don’t smoke marijuana”…

“Good people don’t smoke marijuana.”
– Sen. Jeff Sessions, R-AL, Trump AG nominee
So, roughly speaking, that’d be maybe 60 million people in at least half the states in the country that voted for the decriminalization or legalization of cannabis for recreational and/or medical use? Wow, that’s a whole lot of bad people.
From the latest at dcmj.org:
Donald Trump has tapped one of the biggest prohibitionists in Congress to be the Attorney General of the United States: Alabama Senator Jeff Sessions. Earlier this year the Alabama Senator said “good people don’t smoke marijuana,” and while we don’t know yet if he’ll respect states rights (or DC’s rights since we are not a state) or if he’ll do what John Ashcroft did as George W. Bush’s Attorney General: raid lawful cannabis grows, raid lawful dispensaries, and even go so far as crack down on paraphernalia vendors. Let’s not forget why Tommy Chong went to jail and why history may repeat itself if we don’t act NOW!

"March Of The Clones" Washington DC 09.24.16 from Mike Flugennock on Vimeo.
This past Saturday saw yet another smoking protest at the White House, calling on President Sparkle Pony to deschedule cannabis from the DEA’s schedule of narcotics and dangerous substances. This week’s protest had a Star Wars theme, “March Of The Clones”, and also used the famous Han Solo Carbonite Freeze scene from Return Of The Jedi as an analogy for Obama’s continued inaction on cannabis scheduling.
Ignore the anti-legalization shrieking and propaganda, and consider this little factoid: Police have murdered 765 people in the US this year – so far. Meanwhile, absolutely 0 – count ‘em, ZERO – people worldwide have died as a direct result of smoking cannabis through all of recorded history.
That’s right, smoking cannabis will not kill you – unless you do it in front of a moving bus. See you in DC on September 24!
