If a sufficient number of people break a certain law, it then becomes time to re-evaluate the penalty or the law itself.

A million? There's about 20 million people who do illegal recreational drugs.

Can I assume you agree with the notion, then, that it's time to re-evaluate the penalty of the law itself with regard to marijuana on a federal level?

You bet!

Since about 17 of those 20 million are involved with marijuana, that seems to be the drug to focus on -- I say we increase the penaly to discourage use. You agree with THAT notion?
