Michael Coren's absurd rationalization to continue persecuting and caging humans for using the God-given plant cannabis, hinges on comparing it to theft, rape and assault but he conveniently misses the fact that with those issues there are victims. With cannabis use there is arguably no victim unless it's the user being arrested and then it's the government doing the victimizing. It's elementary, government must stop victimizing cannabis users.
