This is exactly what had me scared straight for the longest time. It's not the drug, it's the system that punishes use of the drug that's the real threat.
The fact that ex-convicts (people that have paid their debt to society) aren't a protected class in the hiring process is beyond me. At least insofar as non-violent offenses go, there's no cause to throw someone away like this. This goes especially considering the current state of political affairs around here.
"Corrective Rape" as a trope within the American prison system is probably the darkest part of this cartoon.
