Regarding the above, though, in your scenario, it would make some difference - the penalties would be lighter for kids who did get caught, and non-existent for adults who got caught. This could keep someone who's only failing was a couple of joints, out of jail - a huge difference in their life.
Not saying we should decriminalize, though, just arguing the point. _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
