- Just weeks after President Biden pardoned marijuana-related sentences, Maryland voters will either legalize recreational marijuana or not with ballot question 4 on November 8th. In this special episode of "In The Courts" with Katie Barlow, she breaks down the ballot question and current discussion in the state on both sides; as well as where laws stand in Washington, D.C., Virginia, and at the federal level.
Former Baltimore Ravens player Eugene Monroe is an advocate for marijuana legalization and chairs the Yes on 4 campaign, which seeks to legalize marijuana in the state of Maryland. He turned to marijuana medically when dealing with pain and inflammation due to sports-related injuries and also supports professional leagues rethinking their regulations and adding research for sports-related injuries. He also noted that 3 out of 10 counties in Maryland have high arrest rates.
Will Jones is a firefighter in Washington D.C, and works with Smart Approaches to Marijuana. SAM is not against decriminalization and moving forward with rethinking criminal justice - but is against the growth of a marijuana industry and its impacts.

Legalize cannabis federally nationwide now. Within each and every state, the law of the land. Treat relatively benign cannabis exactly like we currently treat far more dangerous and deadly alcohol. Perfectly legal in all states. This way, irrational prohibitionist politicians will no longer be able to intentionally obstruct, stall, and delay cannabis legalization against the will of the vast majority of Americans.
exactly dude
also can they plsplspls make it like 13+ or smth?? bc alot of teens need it. And they should encourage us to use it in moderation
just Legalize it and quit calling it a drug
It will be recreationally legal coast to coast within five years. My state of Arizona went legal a couple years ago.
I'm sure drug addicts there were very happy
@@rogerdehaven5603 shut up troll
LEGALIZE IT FEDERALLY ALREADY END CANNABIS PROHIBITION NOW
This was a very good story! I like how certain concerns were brought up here that are rarely brought up, however I would recommend asking more questions in the next video about those previously convicted for weed crimes e.g. are dispensaries hiring these people or pushing them out of the way in the market, are the same people who are concerned about teen marijuana usage also worried about teen drinking/popping opiates, will people negatively affected by unjust marijuana laws also receive some assistance getting their lives back from the marijuana tax sales or will they be forgotten about?
As a plug I approve this messege
It passed! Marijuana finally has legal marijuana
The FAA and the FMCSA need to stop randomly testing individuals for this.
Legalize NOW it's time to free the weed !
Not 1937 bub
In conclusion almost everybody supports legalization however it still won't happen for another 10 years
After all the research, more good has been found then anything recreational and medicated combined (illegal and legal)
Why not ask the public🤔 we are the consumers we are the ones that's going to buy it to use it for health and aches and pain👍 I'm ready to try about anything to stop this pain in my foot and legs and knees the stinging and burning and stabbing pain sometime I can't even sleep at night have to stay up all night rubbing it and soaking my feet, pain pills don't help it🤔👎 I don't want a high dose anyway cuz I'm allergic to everything I can't even put nothing in my mouth without me breaking out👎 I want to know if it's legal in Texas 😃 but I know that stuff is high they sell the gummies them things like 60s bucks for a few gummies👎 I think it's really not right to be locking people up for 6 months is too long to be locked up you lose your house your car and everything else you got😐
a good way to stop pain in your foot is to jam it up a ma5on's a55 and wear them like a little boot for a walk in the cactus park.
Weed is one thing but The Problem is Most Drug Dealers Don't Deal just Weed they Deal hard Drugs and they Mix Hard Drugs into the Weed That's the Problem.
Common sense says free adults should be able to do what they want as long as it doesn't cause damage to property or injury to other people. Think about what freedom really means.
Thank you Joe Biden
georgia and alabama gonna be the last 2 states to legalize 😴
No, South Carolina will be the last. These people act like it's a holy writ to deny voters what we want.
We need people to go and check the federal laws on marijuana. State trying to make it legal at the state level, but not legal on federal level.
They should ban alcohol then, 10 times more people die from alcohol use than cannabis, zero people have died from a cannabis overdoses, and 140,000 per year from alcohol
Sitting here in Arizona smoking some killer weed
Happy to be from Virginia where we can smoke as much as we drink RESPONSIBLY , oh and relaxed Gun laws too, WIN, WIN, WIN ✅🕺🏾
It’s great you can grow your own there even if it’s only 3 plants.
@@KP-ne1cg 4 my boy✅
You can still get in troble if you got it and guns with you at the same time unless it gets federally legal
The paranoia would go away if I wasn't in fear of freedom being taken away
half the people i work with smoke all day long. helps me hold the chainsaw steady.
@@atomictraveller then you go to the tool truck can't rember what you need lmao
@@dakotamovies1699 i wish, after 40+ years in tucson i can only dream of short term memory loss.. :)
😎
Drinking is was worse in so menny ways
Good 🌄🌞🌄 morning everyone
People should be fined if their clothes smell like Marijana in public, get caught smoking it in public, or smoking it while driving.
🤣🤣🤣 fined for smelling like marijuana in public 🤣🤣🤣 no, no , no buddy (you would hate to stand near me) 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Why would anyone fine a person for smelling like weed? Just because you don’t like the smell? There’s no way to objectively prove in court that someone smells like weed… that would be the dumbest law ever because people would be getting robbed simply based on one’s opinion instead of actually committing a crime…
@@SugarFreeZaddy It would not be based on opinion. The clothes would be tested in a lab.
@@MichaelFrankowiak well oh well, our tax paying dollars are better off going to COVID test not “weed smell on clothes test “ don’t you think 🤔
@@MichaelFrankowiak brother, taking their clothes to a lab would be too much of a hassle and waste tax payers money… That would only raise more questions like which piece of clothing would you take: everything they’re wearing or just one item? Does this violate the 4th Amendment? What would they wear after they’re clothes are seized? What if they’re wearing a rented tux? What if you only smelled marijuana on them because a stranger blew smoke on them? All of this just because you don’t like something?? It’s very much overkill and for no good reason that would actually benefit society.
I don’t like bad breath or pungent body odors but I don’t think people should be punished for it, that’s just ridiculous.
STOP ALREADY MARIJUANA WAS DECRIMINALIZED ON A FEDERAL LEVEL OVER AYEAR AGO SOOOOOOOOOOOOO WEED IS LEGAL EVERYWHERE
Say NO TO DRUGS!!!!
Weed is harmless let people do whatever they want with it you dont have to do it yourself vote for the plant 🙏🍃
That's cool but what's that got to do with weed??? Weed not a drug it's a plant....
