I am glad that this is becoming more prevalent. While I personally have never really gotten into any trouble, I know a lot of people that have been incarcerated for weed. In other cases, the presence of weed allowed for entry/search by police which for any number of reasons resulted in being charged for one crime or another.

More importantly (to me personally, since this affects people close to me), a big chunk of them experienced insipid forms of violence while locked up, and in some cases this derailed people for years, or even permanently.

I sincerely hope that the sheer human cost of current policies can be reduced or eliminated altogether.
