Supreme Court judge known best for pot recommendation

It issued four lengthy reports which, among other things, called for lighter sentences for drug offences, treatment for heroin addicts and warnings about the dangers of nicotine and alcohol. But it was its recommendation to decriminalize simple possession of marijuana that caused the greatest sensation.

Many of the Le Dain commission’s recommendations were too explosive for politicians of the day to embrace. But judges soon started moderating sentences and began giving offenders absolute discharges for simple possession… But it was its recommendation to decriminalize simple possession of marijuana that caused the greatest sensation.

Marijuana opponents want to overturn law
UKIAH – Critics of a ballot measure that decriminalized marijuana for personal use in Mendocino County are seeking an election to overturn the law. The voter initiative that passed in 2000 was intended to allow residents to grow marijuana for their own medical use. Its opponents argue that the law has been abused and led to a surge of marijuana cultivation around the county. County Supervisor Jim Wattenburger, who supports repealing the measure, said marijuana-generated income accounts for up to 75 percent of the county's economy.
