BAZ you would have to concede that a lot of major crime has decreased because heavy duty crims just go onto the drug market because it is just the biggest game in town. I would concede that we spend as much on anti-drugs as the addicts spend on drugs however.
I really believe the good senator should have a crack at legalising all drugs. It would be cheaper to supply heroin, ice and cannabis cigarettes, taxed than the current system. A large note "These products will harm you! You are prohibited, by law, from seeking any compensation" should be on every prescription. The sooner the better. No 200 years of research, committees etc. Lets just give it a go. Posted by JBowyer, Wednesday, 9 April 2014 6:22:48 PM

3 Months Later, Here's What Denver Looks Like Since Legalizing Marijuana Three months following Colorado's decision to legalize the production, sale, possession and use of recreational marijuana — a vote that Denver city officials including Mayor Michael Hancock, among others, fought kicking and screaming — guess what's happened to Denver crime rates in 2014? According to new data, they've fallen across the board. Property crime is down 14.6% compared to the same period in 2013. Violent crimes are down 2.4%. http://rss.infowars.com/20140414_Mon_Alex.mp3 http://intellihub.com/anonymous-dhs-whistleblower-alleges-bundy-ranch-surrender-strategical-ploy/ http://21stcenturywire.com/2014/04/14/exclusive-new-images-of-blm-warzone-expose-feds-military-fiasco-in-nevada/ http://rinf.com/alt-news/latest-news/reject-lies-secret-police/ Posted by one under god, Tuesday, 15 April 2014 2:16:11 PM

Well I was unsure whether this is correct and then I thought well if had been deleterious we would certainly have heard so it must be right. We must make sure we publisize this.

Marijuana legalisation pundits should not be so gung-ho about outcomes in the USA states that have legalised pot. The article, "Colorado deaths raise concerns about pot", reports the following unhappy outcomes:
"TWO deaths have raised concerns about Colorado's recently legalised recreational marijuana industry. This concern is heightened by data suggesting cookies, sweets and other of the drug's edibles can be exponentially more potent than a joint. In one case, a college student ate more than the recommended dose of a marijuana-laced cookie and jumped to his death from a hotel balcony. In the other, a husband with no history of violence is accused of shooting his wife in the head, possibly after eating pot-infused lollies. "We're seeing hallucinations. They become sick to their stomachs, they throw up, they become dizzy and very anxious," said Al Bronstein, medical director of the Rocky Mountain Poison and Drug Center. Colorado is one of the first two US states to legalise the recreational use of marijuana and authorities across the country are watching carefully for what happens next. Studies are mixed about whether there is any link between marijuana and violence. Still, pot legalisation opponents said the deaths are a sign of future dangers. Twenty-six people have reported poisonings from marijuana edibles this year, when the centre started tracking such exposures. Six were children who swallowed innocent-looking edibles, most of which were in plain sight. Five of those kids were sent to emergency rooms and two to hospitals for intensive care, Bronstein said."
