Hi, I am becoming more active in Marijuana legalization in Georgia. I have started a facebook page called Georgia Marijuana Law Reform and I am using it to educate people about marijuana and laws. Also, I am using it as the beginning of trying to start an organization. Please check it out and click like and show your support of our cause in Georgia.

Former President Carter Urges Marijuana Legalization "In a message to Congress in 1977, I said the country should decriminalize the possession of less than an ounce of marijuana, with a full program of treatment for addicts," Carter wrote. "I also cautioned against filling our prisons with young people who were no threat to society, and summarized by saying: 'Penalties against possession of a drug should not be more damaging to an individual than the use of the drug itself.' " "One result has been a terrible escalation in drug-related violence, corruption and gross violations of human rights in a growing number of Latin American countries," Carter wrote.

I live in ATL and I have a feeling Georgia would be one of the last states to legalize MJ. Georgia isnt even thinking about legalizing it.
Good luck but like what's been said above, this is the bible belt. You can't even buy alcohol here on Sunday. It'll be a good couple of years until it gets legalized. Other parts of the country have come a long way though so maybe there's hope for Georgia. Just not for awhile, sadly.
