One of the most heartbreaking and hard cases I've ever dealt with was representing a young Black man who was charged with first-degree murder. He attended a house to steal some marijuana. It was one of the most tragic and heartbreaking cases I've ever seen. Around that time, I saw a number of cases dealing with marijuana and firearms. Since marijuana was legalized, I've seen zero.
I think that is an example. The legalization of drugs and the provision of safe supply will save lives, not just because of overdoses and opioid epidemics and the tragedies that we've seen because of our drug policy; it will stop those bullets from coming out of the guns.
