Geez,
This poor slob is 54. Got 35 years for 4 oz. Thats a life sentence. It's time to change this shit.

The sentence is majorly harsh, I wont argue that. Seriously though, you have to be really not thinking straight to be walking around, smoking a joint with weight on you. Thats asking for trouble, but he shouldnt get 35 years for it, thats just fucked.

From the article:
"76% of Texans are pro-Medical Marijuana and 46% are for blanket legalization. However, 80% of those who are in favor of Medical Marijuana believe they stand alone in their thoughts."
Of course they think they're alone. Who wants to make a stand when they're handing out 35 year sentences?

Make fliers of those statistics and post them all over Texas. Something would get done then. I willing to bet that if the government didn't change the laws then the Texans would exercise their RIGHT to change their government. I think we should do that as Americans though, so I might be a little biased. Maybe Obama will do some good.
