In "Marijuana law just creates criminals" by Hakeem Jefferies, he brings to light that marijuana is getting many people arrested each year. Also they are spending millions to arrest the many people that are caught for minor charges. This may be a reason that it might not be enough space for people with major charges.

There aren't many quotes in this article if any at all. It has many facts though from people who are educated on the subject. One surprising fact is that New York spends about 75 million dollars arresting people. Also 400,000 people are arrested for the same violation.

I think they should not be arrested for this because it's not as bad as cigarettes I heard. Why spend so much money when you can spend it on education which will lead to fewer numbers of people arrested for this anyway.

This article made me think about a lot of things. One major thing was that they are arresting for minor charges which is stupid. My questions is that if you arrest people for minor things where are you going to put people who do major things.
