Marijuana in New Hampshire
September 21, 2017
New Hampshire just became the 22nd state to decriminalize the possession of small amounts of marijuana. “Under the new law, people found with three-fourths of an ounce of marijuana will now face a $100 fine rather than jail time.” Eight of the 22 states have also legalized the production and distribution of marijuana for recreational use, with limits, of course, since no government wants to give its serfs too much freedom.
Twenty-eight more states to go.
