Unenforceable LSD Influence Bill Dies in Assembly
Sacramento reports a bill to criminalize being under the influence of LSD speed and other dangerous drugs failed in the Assembly 24 to 31 after opponents warned it would let police detain anyone showing bizarre conduct. The measure by Peter F. Schabarum would have required the accused to prove they were not under the influence or had a doctor prescription, a standard deemed unenforceable by Assemblyman Gordon W. Duffy who noted the drug list was too broad for physicians to assess.
