You are misinformed, there were over 700,000 arrests made for marijuana last year. Even without jail time, a possession charge can have serious consequences for young people. Being ineligible for federal financial aid, losing your job, and losing public benefits just to name a few.

Imagine what better things our police officers could be doing if they didn't have to churn a kid through the system every 51 seconds.
