Homeowners have been locking up their guns and money for safekeeping for centuries.

420 with CNW – Why You Should Be Cautious About Telling Police You Use Weed

The law enforcement agencies are still arresting people for using or possessing marijuana despite its legal stature in many jurisdictions around the country, and some of these arrests are brought about by personal admission of use or possession to the police.

The legislators were led by Rep. Harley Rouda (D-CA) and Sen. Brian Schatz (D-HI).

420 with CNW – Trimming Technology to Boost the Cannabis Industry

Companies operating in the cannabis industry are in existence because of the marijuana plant, which is cultivated and harvested to manufacture marijuana products and services.
