Pubdate: Fri, 8 Oct 2010 Source: DrugSense Blog Website: http://drugsense.org/blog/ LETTER OF THE WEEK POT DISASTER DIDN'T HAPPEN It's hardly surprising that growing numbers of Californians want to legalize marijuana for adults. When Proposition 215 passed in 1996, legalizing medical marijuana, prohibition supporters issued dire warnings of increased crime, teen drug use and traffic fatalities. None of these things happened, and life has gone on as normal. With Proposition 19, prohibition supporters are again crying wolf and again being ignored - as they should be.
