While largely pedantic, and I mostly agree with you in principle, the hypothetical example is perhaps not the greatest. A 19-year-old woman[0] is going to be serving 1 month of jail each year, for the next 6 years, due to circumstances quite similar to the example provided; perhaps rightfully so. I do generally agree with you though -- the drug problem in the US is a health issue and (in the vast majority of situations) should not be a criminal matter. I can't fathom how we can have an AG that wants to use resources to "crack down" on marijuana when that same approach fails to curtail our opioid problems, an unquestionably more serious problem right now. The disconnect from leadership versus on the ground 'real life' is completely unfathomable. I'm really not sure what a solution would look like when political campaigns are thriving at the extreme ends of the spectrum however. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/morning-mix/wp/2017/06/2... |

A stunt person's assistant materially assists a stunt person in riding a motorcycle over a canyon; resulting in severe/fatal injury.
In which case have whose rights been violated? Who is liable for the loss?
Should the eulogy for a stunt fatality be fundamentally different than for a person who accidentally caused self-harm through risky substance use?
