Give these dopers a mandatory 60 days in the hoosegow, then see if there's a lowering of marijuana usage.

Is there any benefit that would come of the government imprisoning people on a massive scale when no property or person has been violated?

One benefit would be to keep idiots like Bruce Mirken from spouting off about no "definitive link between tough laws and lower marijuana usage". What good is a "tough law" if the case is thrown out?

And if Da Mayor instructs the Chicago Police Department not to enforce the marijuana laws, then the City of Chicago certainly doesn't need those federal drug funds, now do they?
