Among his criticisms of the bill:
+
−
鈥?It doesn't provide an avenue to compel those cited for drug use to seek treatment.
+
−
鈥?It gives officers too much discretion in deciding whether to confiscate or destroy drugs on the spot.
+
−
鈥?And he really, really doesn't like arguments that decriminalization should go forward because a disproportionate number of people arrested for marijuana are <a href=http://www.louisvuitton-pascher.com>Acheter louis vuitton</a> black men. (Eighty-three percent of drug arrests in Philadelphia last year were of black men, .)

"Suddenly, this is the great civil-rights issue of our day 鈥斅爐hat black guys should be allowed to smoke as much dope as they want," Nutter told the Inquirer. "Eighty to 85 percent of the people being murdered in this city are black, 75 percent <a href=http://www.louisvuitton-pascher.com/26-voyage-louis-vuitton>Voyage Louis Vuitton</a> of them are young black men. I don't see anyone writing about that. I find all of this sudden interest in the lives of black men by 鈥β爏ome elected officials fascinating. They never talk about the real issues black men care about, like getting a job."

The mayor maybe has a misunderstanding on the last part: The argument isn't that "black guys should be allowed to smoke as much dope as they want." It's that "white men and black men smoke dope roughly at the same levels 鈥?." That's a very, very different argument.

−
And it's easier to get a job if you don't have a drug conviction on  trying to  鈥?probably understands that as well as anybody.
+
−
Still, Nutter hasn't outright said he'll veto the bill. But it doesn't sound good for decriminalization advocates. "We want to put forward a more comprehensive set of pragmatic responses," Nutter told the Inky, "and not have mass confusion out on the street for the Philadelphia Police Department <a href=http://www.louisvuitton-pascher.com/28-portefeuille-louis-vuitton>Portefeuille Louis Vuitton</a> and the citizens of the city."
