What a coincidence! About 50% of drug arrests in America are cannabis related: ACLU

Insane. The good news is that data you shared was from 2010, and we've been in a steady decline since. Down to 40% in 2018 (Pew). And according to the NCDAS in 2020, "over the last decade, arrests made for the possession of marijuana have dropped by 58%."

What happened in 2019 that made the number tank so fast?

I want to try mushrooms. If anyone in Montana can help me with that let me know.

Yo dog just grow em. Super easy and you can order spores legally online.

I was going to, but I don't have the best place for that and everyone wants Bitcoin.

PutangInaMo@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

It's been a while since I bought some but bitcoin really? Lol that sucks. I wouldn't trust a bunch of crypto bros to send me the right spores honestly.

Nuh uh, check out Myyco. There are a 501c non-profit that donates to mushroom research.

Yes, nice paper trail

Wait until you find out about Home Depot allowing rapes of underaged girls. Montana is literally the pedo state.

I think more people might be ready to admit it, because it becomes more and more acceptable.

Wonder what new non-crime the prison industrial complex will invent to refill the prisons after they can’t arrest people for weed.
