legalize the use of marijuana in the United States and allow its import from other nations.

This petition is created for the purpose of slowing gang violence and homicide over the use of illegal drugs. The setbacks of increased use must be set aside at this time. The greater of the two evils must be stopped first. Use is a choice that hurts the individual themselves, not the citizens of this nation who are hurt by the acts of murder and bloodshed while in the U.S. and neighboring countries.
