New "drug czar" doesn't like Marijuana:
New "drug czar" doesn't like Marijuana:
The new White House drug czar has quite an idea for where to put nonviolent drug users.

[Most experts agree that pot is less harmful then smokes or booze yet they are legal and in most places pot isn't. The new drug czar Rep. Tom Marino (R-Pa.) is a hard liner on Marijuana and I guess pot users would be included in his nonviolent drug users hospital slash prison idea. With over two million people in prisons already this doesn't strike me as a good idea. What do you think of it?]

You know that I am the wrong person to ask any questions about drug abuse issues.

Re: New "drug czar" doesn't like Marijuana:
All federal drug laws are inherently illegal.
The constitution does not authorize any.

Re: New "drug czar" doesn't like Marijuana:
Is it politically incorrect to suggest that is an extremist point of view ?
