This does not follow logically. Example:
Population A has 100 people and laws against marijuana use and DUI.
10 people commit DUI.
10 people use marijuana, of whom 0 commit DUI.
20 crimes per 100 people.
Population B has 100 people and laws against DUI.
10 people commit DUI.
30 people use marijuana, of whom 15 commit DUI.
25 crimes per 100 people.
Even if that does not convince you, crb's claim was that organized crime activity went down.
And even if THAT does not convince you, I don't understand why people are always so reticent to just source their claims. Don't you find it fun? Don't you find it more effective than simply repeating your claims? Don't you think it's disrespectful to the person you got the information from to not give them credit for finding it in the first place? I don't understand it.
Therefore psychosis.

America, stop pushing. I know what I'm doing.
