ISBN: 9781503383616 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 64 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych.

Marijuana Availability in the United States and its Associated Territories
ISBN: 9781503387188 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 130 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Marijuana is considered by the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) and the National Drug Intelligence Center (NDIC) to be "a leading drug threat to the country." However, U.S. law enforcement authorities generally regard marijuana as a lower threat than cocaine and diverted pharmaceuticals because it is less often associated with violent crime and property crime. Marijuana is the most readily available and widely used and abused illicit drug in the nation. Its prevalence has contributed to both an acceptance of marijuana use among some adults and adolescents and a perception that the drug...

Both proposals failed because of strong congressional...
