NORML: 2006 Year in Review
December 29th, 2006 by Alex
NORML has dropped their annual ‘Year in Review‘ article for 2006. The article targets the top 10 events and discoveries that have affected marijuana policy in the United States.
The majority of these issues have been covered by tFS. Out of all of these articles, I would have to pinpoint the highest arrest rate ever as one of the most striking issues in 2006. It cements the fact there is still so much to be done in the quest for legalization.
So, here is NORML’s list of most influential events for 2006 (in order):
- Cannabis Smoking Not Linked To Lung Cancer, UAT Cancers, Largest Case-Controlled Study Says
- Nearly Half Of Americans Say Pot Should Be Regulated Like Alcohol
- Marijuana Arrests For Year 2005 Most Ever
- Clinical Trial: Vaporization Is A “Safe And Effective” Cannabinoid Delivery System
- Cannabinoids Curb Brain Tumor Growth, First-Ever Patient Trial Shows
- Democrat Shift In Congress Bodes Well For Cannabis-Law Reform
- Court Says State Medi-Pot Policies Not Trumped By Federal Law
- Congress Scales Back Ban On Student Aid For Drug Offenders
- Court Strikes Down Alaska Pot Recrim Law
- New Report Finds Cannabis Can Halt Disease Progression
