The roundtable hosted by the vice president will be the administration's first public event on the issue since President Joe Biden talked about it in his State of the Union speech.
I’m not sure I follow. Do you mean it would expose the injustice of all the black people thrown in prison for doing something that so many of us white people have been doing for years with far fewer consequences? That makes sense, but isn’t that a good thing? They should totally still try to unwind it. Better insanely late than never, right?
It’s really not some impossible task, but you’d better believe private prisons are lobbying against it hard to pretend that it is.
Just legalize it, and fuck off with this schedule 3 nonsense. Let everyone out of prison who’s locked up on pot charges immediately, and pay them money in the form of reparations proportionate to the amount of their lives stolen by the injustice of criminalizing a plant.
lmao I didn't know that Fat Joe was an actual rapper. I thought this was an Onion article saying that the President and VP were going to host an event together and Fat Joe was Biden's rapper name.
