Federal Bill introduced to decriminalize marijuana

Citing John Stuart Mill, Barney Frank has introduced a bill to decriminalize possession of small amounts of marijuana and use of marijuana in public:

Frank has filed a bill that would eliminate federal penalties for personal possession of less than 100 grams of marijuana.  It would also make the penalty for using marijuana in public just $100.

This bill would make sense for many reasons including these.  Or listen to the reasons of this conservative judge.  Or consider these reasons.
