Report Urges Marijuana Legalization Under 18 Rule
A government study argues urban violence is higher among nonwhite residents and recommends legalizing marijuana for those over 18. The report, by Mulvihill Tumin and Curtis, notes marijuana has mild effects and is not a gateway drug, while calling for broader social reforms to reduce unemployment and poverty in ghettos. It cautions the full 13 member commission did not endorse legalization.
