Please petition President Obama to pardon, and expunge the criminal records of anyone who was jailed for non-violent possession of Marijuana in the last fifty years. Too many lives have been ruined by the prohibition of this harmless herb, and the drug "war" surrounding it.
Several hundred people each year are arrested for crimes involving Marijuana, many of them are for possession only. The Government has known for many years that marijuana shouldn't be listed as a dangerous drug, but has kept it on the top tier of the drug schedule, and ruined many peoples lives because of it. The President knows from personal experience that it isn't a dangerous drug so he should either pardon all of them, or turn himself in to the Justice Dept. since he has admitted using it in the past.
