The effects are overwhelmingly wrought on Black South Carolinians, who are <em>four times as likely</em> to be incarcerated as their white peers. That is why our work is so necessary. </span></span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: 14px;"><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "helvetica" , "arial" , "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="color: black;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">At the same time, South Carolina, has a small but mighty group of advocates working on criminal justice and civil rights issues on the ground, including our very own Kate Weaver Patterson, South Carolina Site Director and Managing Attorney, and Jerry Blassingame, our key partner in</span></span></span> The South Carolina Second Chance Justice Collaborative. The Collaborative was born out of a year and half of conversation between Katherine Katcher, R&R's Executive Director, and Jerry and has since grown into a strong partnership between Root & Rebound and Soteria Community Development Corporation, Jerry's powerful organization that provides housing, employment support, and systems-change advocacy. </span></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "helvetica" , "arial" , "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 14px;">Together, we are working to open pathways to opportunity for system-impacted South Carolinians—with a focus on advancing economic mobility for the most vulnerable families in the state, reducing the number of people in its prisons and jails, and ending the criminalization of youth.

After the most extensive self-education of my 36 years on Earth, TrytheCBD was the obvious choice.<br /><br />Their site build, color palette, name, logo, lab results, labeling, location, blog, and unmatched uniformity across the web, lead me to that conclusion. I have been more than happy with the shatter itself and couldn't have been more impressed with the way in which the product was both discreetly and professionally packaged/shipped from CO to GA.<br /><br />Cannabidiol offers remedies unmet in modern medicine because its a whole body and mind wellness solution. It requires an objective mindset and the willingness to both learn and grow as a human. I say that because should anyone do the research without letting preconceived notions, or bias effect their thinking, they too will come to the exact same conclusion that cannabis is an herbaceous plant with tons of natural wellness as well as psychotropic benefits and features. Not only that, its a way of life that's easy to grab hold of and steer toward once the cannabinoid fever kicks in.<br /><br />Cannabis is great for recreational enjoyment in your youth (was for me anyways) and even better for overall health and vitality as your mind and body begin to age and deteriorate in adulthood.<br /><br />And "that's all I've really got to say about that", at least until I launch a platform that maybe someday could be worthy of sharing the same internet as TRYTHECBD.COM.<br /><br />#CervicalRadiculopathy #ChronicBackPain #FormerOpioidAddict and #CurrentCannabidiolAdvocate using #CBDtoRecovery with #TryTheCBD to help maintain my sanity and continue with #NineteenMonthsSobriety #TheStruggleIsRealYall <br /><br /> BrennanPoole@OUDcollective.com is my personal email and I'm available 24/7 for anyone looking for answers, seeking alternatives, or praying for anything to help them find a peace of mind. <br /> (678) 856-5729 text anytime.

I welcome feedback from my constituents and appreciate your interest in this area. You will be pleased to know I recently cosponsored two bills that aim to modernize federal prohibitions on marijuana.</span><span style="font-family: "times" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 106%;"> <o:p></o:p></span></span></div><div style="line-height: 106%; margin-bottom: 8.0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in;"><h2><span style="color: #eeeeee; font-family: "times" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 106%;">I agree that marijuana policy in the United States is ineffective and unjust. These draconian federal and state laws disproportionately harm minorities, increase the number of incarcerated individuals in an already bloated prison system, and waste federal resources. In addition, they are out of touch with popular opinion. Reports have found that 68 percent of American people are in favor of legalizing marijuana, and those numbers rise to 93 percent for medical use.</span></h2></div><div style="line-height: 106%; margin-bottom: 8.0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in;"><span style="color: #eeeeee; font-family: "times" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 106%;">Our outdated federal laws have fueled racial inequalities and packed our criminal justice system. Legislation that seeks to legalize marijuana must also work to provide incarcerated persons with meaningful opportunities to regain their freedom and successfully reenter society. This is why I cosponsored H.R. 1456, the Marijuana Justice Act of 2019, and H.R. 2843, the Marijuana Freedom and Opportunity Act.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div style="line-height: 106%; margin-bottom: 8.0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in;"><span style="color: #eeeeee; font-family: "times" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 106%;">Both bills work to prevent future harms to Americans by de-scheduling marijuana under the Controlled Substances Act and securing resources to assist communities with reentry opportunities. Notably, H.R. 1456 would expunge all non-violent federal misdemeanors and would create a Community Reinvestment Fund. H.R. 2843 would also establish a Marijuana Opportunity Trust Fund which would provide financial resources to small business owners from socially disadvantaged backgrounds. I remain committed to sensible drug policy reform that ensures equal justice for all. With your concerns in mind, I will continue to support these bills as they make their way through the legislative process. <o:p></o:p></span></div><div style="line-height: 106%; margin-bottom: 8.0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in;"><span style="font-family: "times" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 106%;"><span style="color: #eeeeee;">Thank you for sharing your opinion, and I hope you continue to do so.

I find myself asking that question almost daily now. </span></div><br /><a name='more'></a><br />That's probably because my country mishandled, misappropriated and missed the mark on me and my 'problem'. And when they stepped in, whether you agree with my perspective or not, they took my life and have managed to make it look like a <i>monkey f★☆ing a football</i>. <b>Like a football bat</b>. <b>Like a fu★☆ed up equation with a monkey in it okay.</b><br /><br /><blockquote class="tr_bq"><b>I could spend the rest of this digital space on woe is me, pathetic pity-pandering and showing off my email address pimp game. But I don't believe in domain name trafficking and the Two Thousand Twenty version of solicitation for prostitution. </b></blockquote><br /><h4 style="text-align: left;"><br />I may very well be Chasing the Wind with reckless abandon. As there seems to be no profit under the sun unless I do just that. </h4><br />But, like Qoheleth, I aim to be an objective oriented, perspective taking blogger (that doesn't have a clue how to properly blog), Becoming Brennan (hence my handle @BecomingBrennan).<br /><br /><blockquote class="tr_bq">📌 Tangent. Real quick, I have struggled with publishing or 'blogging' because of technical shφt and piss poor rationalizations. Such as that period after the parentheses. Does it go in the parentheses or just outside? That's a perfect example as to why I've been afraid to put my thoughts out there. A f★☆ing period placement! No mas. And back to it.📍 </blockquote><br /><h4 style="text-align: left;">I thought it wise to have a look see at how other countries are handling this "opioid epidemic."</h4>The journey starts with our good buddy Canada; my friends. The all-to-often under rated and always overlooked northern neighbors to our Divided States of America.<br /><br /><a href="https://www.canada.ca/en/health-canada/services/substance-use/problematic-prescription-drug-use/opioids/federal-actions/overview.html">Federal actions on opioids – Overview - Canada.ca</a><br /><br />And the homework for the night. Have a look around the site. Let's compare notes first thing tomorrow. How bout it?<br /><br /><i>Til then my friends. </i><br /><br /><blockquote class="tr_bq"><b>Brennan has a date with Wilderness Walking; wait--Wondering.
