Let’s just legalize drugs, instead of throwing the pot smokers in jail. They are no more dangerous than people who consume alchohol. That should cut the prison population in have, and also have no use for the federal drug enforcemant agency, which can then be eliminated.

SB1401

Possession of less than 28.5 g of marijuana is already a misdemeanor in CA, so the idea that prisons are filled with guys who were just in possession of personal consumption amounts is a myth. Even possession of hash is nearly always punished with a fine instead of jail time.
