It is an open secret that the dangerous increase of crime in this country is closely connected with this.”

“Penalties against possession of a drug should not be more damaging to an individual than the use of the drug itself”

And it can do so with remarkable safety. Indeed, marijuana is less toxic than many of the drugs that physicians prescribe every day.”
