There's a new wind blowing through the very home of marijuana prohibition: not only have dozens of states legalised the medical use of marijuana, but two states (Washington and Colorado) have even legalised the use of marijuana by adults for non-medical purposes.

The video advocacy team of the Hungarian Civil Liberties Union (HCLU) travelled to Seattle in November, to find out why people voted 'yes' on I-502, an initiative to regulate and tax marijuana. After interviewing several professionals and activists, we found this to be a piece of carefully-considered legislation, which addresses human rights, social justice, and public health concerns, in relation to the region's number two cash crop after apples.
