Rolling Stones rocker Mick Jagger is calling for government officials to legalize marijuana on a British island – to see if it prevents drug-related violence.

The singer, who was convicted of possessing narcotics in the 1960s, insists youngsters will always experiment with substances, despite the risk of negative side effects. He is now urging officials to legalize cannabis on the Isle of Man – a British Crown dependency in the Irish Sea – for a limited time to test the consequences of an end to drug prohibition.
