It has been too long that people are being charged with drug crimes for a substance that has changed so many peoples lives for the better. if it was to be decriminalised it would stop young people from having criminal records and unable to proceed with their lives.
There is so evidence for goodd when it comes to marijuana, in addition it would solve drug related crimes at least specifically to do with marijuana and in turn people doing dodgy dealings on the street won't get hurt.
