The Facts
Mood:

irritated
I was reading this article and it had some interesting facts about drugs. So I'm sharing them with you.

60 individuals died due to the adverse effects of drugs last year in our county (Philadelphia County)

In 1998, 78.7% of male arrestees tested postitive for any drug in Philadelphia

Past year, illicit drug users were 16 times more likely than nonusers to be arrested and booked for larceny or theft

marijuana has found its way into the hands of 200 million people ages 12-35 in the past year

Tell me that this 'Blunt Ban' shouldn't be put in motion...
