The Department of Health and Human Services has moved to reclassify marijuana as less harmful than cocaine or heroin, a possible first step toward wider legalization, according to reports.
In a letter obtained by Bloomberg News, a Health and Human Services Department official wrote to Drug Enforcement Agency Administrator Anne Milgram that marijuana should be classified as a schedule three substance, which consists of drugs “with a moderate to low potential for physical and psychological dependence.”
Cutting edge medical shit going on here folks, they’re only about 50 years late!
Fucking legalize already.

What does this mean? Like, a 10 year old can walk into a grocery store and buy a tomato. Is that what you mean? Or did you mean legalize it like alcohol?

In that case, I agree. There’s no sane reason for weed to be illegal in a country where alcohol is not.
Difference is a kid can grow weed.
Even home brew has a complicated setup.
It’s plant, not a demon.
Home brewing alcohol doesn’t have to be complicated. I make hard cider all the time by just opening a jug of apple juice, dumping in yeast, and putting a balloon with a pin hole over the mouth of the jug. Kids could very easily make hooch if they wanted to.
I did that when I was a teenager. Way easier than trying to keep an illegal plant alive that smells strongly of weed.
Remember when the Obama administration reviewed and then rejected this change? That was weird
