Decriminalization of Marijuana for use as a recreational drug.

Created by J.W. on January 13, 2013

"Under the Controlled Substances Act (CSA). Marijuana is classified under the following criteria:
A. The drug has a high potential for abuse.
B. The drug has no currently accepted medical use in treatment in the United States
C. There is a lack of accepted safety for use of the drug under medical supervision." SOURCE: http://www.whitehouse.gov/ondcp/federal-laws-pertaining-to-marijuana. Seems very hypocritical for the government to list marijuana as a "Schedule 1 drug" when alcohol fits under the exact same classification. Thousands of people are negatively effected by alcohol every year and yet we continue to accept this as the norm. We the People need to accept Marijuana or criminalize Alcohol. STOP BEING HYPOCRITES!!! "For the People by the People"
