A BETTER MARIJUANA POLICY WILL LIMIT SOCIETAL DAMAGE

Children have died from eating peanuts, but we don't incarcerate 
peanut growers, sellers or consumers. The issue isn't whether or not 
cannabis is completely safe for everybody, but rather freedom of choice.

The voters of Colorado and Washington state have decided that we 
should not incarcerate cannabis growers, sellers or consumers. And I 
suggest that the rest of the states do likewise.
