I am tired of wasting my time with small time crimes. We need to deal with real issues and real drug problems like: METH. Isn't Missouri the METH Capital of the world? Who cares about putting a non violent marijuana user in jail, when help and education is what they need.
The TRUE GATEWAY drug is called: Alcohol.
I hate when the 'government' calls it "drugs and alcohol". Alcohol IS A DRUG!
Over 800,000 arrests last year over marijuana and over 90% ending up being minor offences.
