The pardon is for people convicted of possessing a Firearm when in possession of Weed , Brown’s pardon applies in cases where possession was the only charge, and there were no victims.

I guess this isn't a major deal. The classic liberal (meaning do whatever the hell you want with yourself) in me is saying if want to smoke weed, then have at it. It's not my vice, but I know a lot of people who do it and you should have the right to do it. now once people are allowed to distill their own booze, I'll be on board with people growing it legally.

Many times other charges are dropped and gun crimes are notorious for being pled down to simple possession charges.
