Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

It is already solved in 24 US States. The federal government hasn't done shit, so the States changed the laws themselves. Of course that doesn't resolve issues like drug tests for federal jobs, or questionnaires for firearms purchases, but those are edge cases that don't affect most people.
That's okay we just replaced them with homeless people who are charged with assaulting a police officer after the 5th time they've watched their entire life go into a trash bin.
I assume you mean the problem of going to prison for a little weed, right? Or are private prisons illegal in 24 states? That would be news to me.
Weed
So yeah that solves one fraction of the problem... IE bigger one being, a single mistake at one point in life, basically wrecks your ability to reform and become a productive citizen.
