We Won't Go Back!

We don't care what '80s nostalgia freak Sen. Jeff Sessions says, we're not going back to the good old days of "Just Say No"... and I'll add no more other than to say that you'll be glad you dragged your sleepy butt out at 8am to be at Dupont Circle to join DCMJ in standing up for legal marijuana.

Rally at 8am, march at 10am. Fans, BE THERE.

This Is Your Brain On Jeff Sessions

Alabama Senator Jeff Sessions, The Donald's nominee for Attorney General, is known for some pretty Neanderthal positions on civil liberties issues, but none are quite as knuckle-dragging as his creaky, shopworn, 1980s "Just Say No Club" position on marijuana. This, despite at least half the states in the country having some form of decriminalization or legalization for medical and recreational use.

#SmokeSessions Returns to #ShowSessions

Like MacArthur, they said they'd return, and they did. As advertised, the "Russell Building Posse" paid a repeat visit to the office of Senator and AG nominee Jeff Sessions to "show'n'tell" his media director the plant and people he railed against with his "good people" remarks about marijuana.

"Smoke Sessions" hits Capitol Hill

And so it was that activists from the DC Cannabis Coalition convened at the office of Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-AL), Trump's nominee for Attorney General, to discuss the Senator's recent remarks that "good people don't smoke marijuana"...

"Good people don't smoke marijuana."

So, roughly speaking, that'd be maybe 60 million people in at least half the states in the country that voted for the decriminalization or legalization of cannabis for recreational and/or medical use? Wow, that's a whole lot of bad people, Senator.

From the latest at dcmj.org:

Donald Trump has tapped one of the biggest prohibitionists in Congress to be the Attorney General of the United States: Alabama Senator Jeff Sessions. Earlier this year the Alabama Senator said “good people don’t smoke marijuana,” and while we don’t know yet if he’ll respect states rights (or DC’s rights since we are not a state) or if he’ll do what John Ashcroft did as George W. Bush’s Attorney General: raid lawful cannabis grows, raid lawful dispensaries, and even go so far as crack down on paraphernalia vendors. Let’s not forget why Tommy Chong went to jail...
