Report: Life Sentences: Collateral Sanctions Associated with Marijuana Offenses
The Center for Cognitive Liberty and Ethics has released an important new report, "Life Sentences: Collateral Sanctions Associated with Marijuana Offenses," detailing the range of extra penalties that people with marijuana convictions can continue to suffer even after their criminal punishment is completed, including state-by-state summaries. According to CCLE: "Our latest study examines the true impact of a marijuana conviction. A misdemeanor conviction for possession of marijuana can trigger automatic bars on educational aid, a bar on serving as a foster parent, denial of federal housing assistance, revocation or suspension of occupational licenses, suspension of one’s driver’s license, and much more."

The sons of bitches who pass these laws will never need financial aid in their family, and I'm sure they will never have any trouble going to any school they should choose. How can one without a problem design a solution to something he or she can and may never relate to? The line between society and the society's voice must be re-evaluated and amplified. AND HEARD.
