ISBN: 9781503109773 / Angielski / Miękka / 26 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. After decades of failed policies and tremors of varying intensity, the tectonic plates of marijuana regulation abruptly shifted November 2012 as the citizens of Washington and Colorado voted to legalize the drug for personal, recreational use. Smaller, earlier quakes first began in Oregon in 1973, when the state legislature passed legislation that made the penalty for possession of small amounts of marijuana equivalent to that of a traffic ticket.

Marijuana Availability in the United States and its Associated Territories
ISBN: 9781503387188 / Angielski / Miękka / 130 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 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."
