Reefer Madness by Eric Schlosscher (the guy who wrote Fast Food Nation)
Very indepth, almost done with the first third where he talks about marijuana's history and marijuana offenders in the United States. He makes some very nice points (how if you're arrested for marijuana offenses in different counties within a state the penality can vary from $100 to 10 years in prison.) And for most of the cases where you think "that can possibly happen" he has a true story to back it up.

One day an Englishman, a Scotsman, and an Irishman walked into a pub together. They each bought a pint of Guinness. Just as they were about to enjoy their creamy beverage, three flies landed in each of their pints. The Englishman pushed his beer away in disgust. The Scotsman fished the fly out of his beer and continued drinking it, as if nothing had happened. The Irishman, too, picked the fly out of his drink but then held it out over the beer and yelled "SPIT IT OUT, SPIT IT OUT, YOU BASTARD!"
