European countries (including Italy and Spain), the Netherlands (home of the International Court of Justice), Britain, plus many Australian and even some U.S. states have effectively decriminalized marijuana. The U.S. is flooded with man-made, killer drugs causing massive crime in our streets. Our White House Office of National Drug Control Policy's director should be focused on these instead of this mad mission to make marijuana into some kind of new, evil drug. While his attentions are misplaced, "Rome burns." Sandy Cote Toledo, Ohio (C'mon, that's not where all that smoke is coming from) - --- MAP posted-by: Doc-Hawk
