Other great savings could be realized from not enforcing laws like bank robberies, thefts, shop-lifting, shootings that don’t result in death, rapes, pedophilia, grand theft auto...
Go Rham!
So when people want to end Bloomberg's ban on Big Gulps, are you going to make the same trite comparison?
There will be a high death rate for a few months, but that'll settle out ~ and talk about stability, feudalism can last for centuries!
If Rahm is lucky they'll declare him "King" and leave him alone in his fortress.
All of those crimes are force against someone. Smoking dope (stupid as it is) isn't using force against someone.

This would only be a codification of a pre-existing unofficial policy that has arisen from many years of cops and judges exercising their personal judgement in trying to allocate the justice system’s limited resources to the best effect.
