Ending the prohibition on cannabis is more than a health or freedom issue…it is a national security issue…
$60B just from this country alone is funneled to drug cartels and criminal organizations. In Europe Daesh has all but cornered the hashish smuggling market and is making billions there…we are funding our enemies and the enemies of our allies…and for what…???

We must force our legislators to decriminalize cannabis now and cut off the funding to these criminal enterprises in the name of national security.
