“I do not believe that marijuana is a gateway drug, and having been a mayor trying to keep my community safe, if there was any drug that was driving violence, more than marijuana, it was alcohol which is legal. And so I just don't think this is a gateway drug. And by the way, if you regulate it you're actually going to overcome a lot of problems with people having to go to the streets to buy their drug. You don't know how dangerous that is.” PeopleThinkingTryingBelieveProblemCommunityViolenceDangerousDrugOvercomingAlcoholDrivingMarijuana Author:Cory Booker
