One recent advocate of considering legalization as part of a new approach to crime is John J. DiIulio Jr., who served as President George W. Bush’s director of faith-based initiatives. Writing in the journal Democracy, DiIulio said that the impact of more than 800,000 marijuana-related arrests on crime rates last year was “likely close to zero.” He argued there is “almost no scientific evidence showing that pot is more harmful to its users’ health, more of a ‘gateway drug’ or more crime-causing in its effects than alcohol or other legal narcotic or mind-altering substances.”
