The Big Difference Between Legalization and Decriminalization – The Sean Worley Story

But was Worsley a stoner? No –he was a war veteran suffering from PTSD and the cannabis was to help him cope with the trauma of serving 14-months in Iraq disabling bombs a-la-Hurt Locker. Yet this doesn’t matter in Gordo Alabama where marijuana is bad and illegal. However – this was just the beginning. Worley went through a legal nightmare because of the irregularities between state cannabis laws. Eventually – Worley ended up in prison somewhere in the South with piles of debt for driving through a state without federal protections on cannabis.
