You're not wrong, here's a list of countries that may execute you for possession of canabis;

Bahrain, Brunei Darussalam, Iran, the Republic of Korea, Malaysia, Myanmar, the Philippines, Qatar, Singapore, Sudan, Taiwan and the USA.

Something tells me the USA has executed far fewer prisoners over this charge, leading back to the point I had originally made.

ugh im so glad that i wasnt killed for owning one (1) weed! i should feel so blessed that:

  • i am no longer able to vote
  • i will never see my family again
  • i will face violence and sexual assault in prison for decades
  • i will be released with no education or means, and may even be in debt, charged for my time behind bars

When you get thrown into a mass grave because you smoked a fucking plant you can never again;

  1. Vote
  2. See anyone EVER
  3. Coitus
  4. Learn anything new

I don't have to point a finger and type in all caps to make my point because logic brought me here. Enjoy your meltdown.

Just because the US isn't the worst of all countries doesn't mean it's good. Execution is not the only other option and I'm sure you know that.

Can you point to where I said America is good?

I tried to understand some statistics, I'm not waving a banner here. Stop being foolish.
