259. lappuse - Victory— victory at all costs, victory in spite of all terror, victory, however long and hard the road may be; for without victory, there is no survival.
410. lappuse - This result is not surprising for as we observed many years ago, the history of the narcotics legislation in this country 'reveals the determination of Congress to turn the screw of the criminal machinery — detection, prosecution and punishment — tighter and tighter'.
334. lappuse - The evidence in this record clearly shows that marijuana has been accepted as capable of relieving the distress of great numbers of very ill people, and doing so with safety under medical supervision. It would be unreasonable, arbitrary and capricious for DEA to continue to stand between those sufferers and the benefits of this substance in light of the evidence in this record.
560. lappuse - The patient, while capable of leading a useful and fairly normal life so long as he takes a certain non-progressive quantity, usually small, of the drug of addiction, ceases to be able to do so when the regular allowance is withdrawn.
343. lappuse - POSSESSION OF MARIHUANA FOR PERSONAL USE WOULD NO LONGER BE AN OFFENSE, BUT MARIHUANA POSSESSED IN PUBLIC WOULD REMAIN CONTRABAND SUBJECT TO SUMMARY SEIZURE AND FORFEITURE. • CASUAL DISTRIBUTION OF SMALL AMOUNTS OF MARIHUANA FOR NO REMUNERATION, OR INSIGNIFICANT REMUNERATION NOT INVOLVING PROFIT WOULD NO LONGER BE AN OFFENSE.
467. lappuse - ... current drug prohibition policies, caused largely by the government's enthusiasm for demonizing the drugs that are illegal, are the restrictions on using the illicit drugs for legitimate medical purposes. For example, marijuana has been found to be useful in treating glaucoma and as an anticonvulsant for some victims of cerebral palsy and multiple sclerosis, and it is particularly effective in reducing the nausea that accompanies chemotherapy. And research indicates that psychedelic drugs, such...
425. lappuse - Aguilar v. Texas, 378 US 108 (1964) and Spinelli v. United States, 393 US 410 (1969). See also: Fed. R. Crim. Proc., rule 41(c), 18 USCA The guiding rule in any and all "probable cause...
570. lappuse - A process of normalization of the drug abuse phenomenon is pursued, which could lead to a de-stigmatization of drug users. This does not mean that this phenomenon has been spirited away. But it has been put in another perspective in order to enable society to face the problems from a realistic point of view, unobscured by moralistic colouring. The process of normalization implies a change of climate. The pragmatic -7aspects of drug policy mutt be emphasized: that it a more factual and realistic approach...
184. lappuse - Drug addiction, like prostitution, and like liquor, is not a police problem; it never has been, and never can be solved by policemen. It is first and last a medical problem, and if there is a solution it will be discovered not by policemen, but by scientific and competently trained medical experts whose sole obective will be the reduction and possible eradication of this devastating appetite.
344. lappuse - Indeed, regulation might facilitate patterns of controlled use by diminishing the "forbidden fruit" aspect of the drug and perhaps increasing the likelihood that an adolescent would be introduced to the drug through families and friends who practice moderate use, rather than through their heaviest-using, most drug-involved peers. As has historically been the case with respect to alcohol, state governments differ in their approaches to marijuana. So long as present federal law continues to prohibit...
