Terry Lyon begins to address the multiple reasons why he supports ending prohibition of cannabis for use by responsible adults in his campaign interview.
Highlights in the interview are:
He would like to see “no taxes” as the constitution does not allow the governement to own a plant.
He talks about the racial disparity for prosecution of a plant.
“It is just a plant” and he closes out touching on some civil liberties issues surrounding the cannabis plant.
