Jon Ossoff talks to Bossip about cannabis legalization, gun control, more

UPDATED — 09:37 a.m. 4/20/2021

Before Jon Ossoff became a history-making, blue-flippin’ Georgia Senator alongside Raphael Warnock, he chatted with BOSSIP.

During a sitdown with BOSSIP’s Associate Editor Jason Lee, Ossoff detailed why now-defunct Senator David Perdue was the wrong choice for the previously red, southern state and he offered his take on cannabis legalization. According to Ossoff, cannabis should be regulated, legalized, and taxed. Why? Well because Senator Ossoff is adamant hat alcohol is more deestructive to the human body than cannabis and lawmakers who support the alcoholic beverages industry and drug companies that produce highly addictive opiates are flat out hypocrites.

This guy gets it.
