The point is that any law that makes criminals out of 15 million Americans is probably not such a good idea. The point was that drug abuse isn't a criminal issue, it's a healthcare issue.

Josh CharlesI grew up in Baltimore. And yes, I am a big sports fan, especially when it comes to my local teams.
Josh CharlesI am a lefty, though I bat right-handed... When I was a kid I pitched, played first, outfield and shortstop as well. Now it's mainly softball with some friends.
