Weed has been illegal for decades, yet any 13 yr old kid can find it if he wants it, so may as well legalize it and tax it. BUT, meth is the same thing...anybody can get it, but it's Satan's drug. That stuff is horrible.
Life ain't supposed to be easy.

I've heard it said before that having weed available only medicinally creates a situation where the only available weed is super strong stuff, akin to hard liquor, whereas a free market creates more of a market for lower-potency stuff, akin to beer. Some people just wanna be able to smoke a joint and only get a little high, and relax Not everybody wants to take a trip to the moon from one hit off the bong. Just food for thought.

I use to be a die hard right wing Christian to the max. After stressing, banging my head against the wall, and seeing no change I decided to be a live and let live libertarian. I hate drugs, abortion, and welfare, but nothing is and will be done about any of those things, no Republican or Democrat has changed it. So I go along with the principle if what you do doesn't violate my rights or freedom go for it and answer to your God at a later date. The problem with all this stuff is there's too many what if's when it comes to drugs it's not like alcohol. It stays with you way much longer. To hard to accurately test and most jobs will not allow it regardless.

It wouldn't change . At least not for a very long time.

I'm with ya Pat, I have no time for the crap, but I don't care what anyone does in their home.
Friedman said it best and I'm paraphrasing here, prohibition benefits the government, those involved in the court systems and the cartels the most.

Maurice Thompson said in his book , The Witchery of Archery , that he lit his pipe to " smoke off the effects of the coffee".
I'm not fooled , Mr. Thompson .

I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

Will teachers be allowed to do a doobie at lunch? Are they allowed to drink alcohol at lunch? Just because the gubbiment says something is illegal doesn't mean your employer can't ban it. I suppose if it's deemed medicinal and the individual has a prescription they could use it. Don't see how it would be any worse than the opioid painkillers that are being prescribed.

Are the pot heads really going to rise to power ? Will they be the movers and the shakers ? I doubt it. No threat there.

Ummm ,did you happen to notice that there are now 10 legal states and 13 that decriminalized it ? in like the last 5 years. That didn't happen by itself. So yea movers and shakers. At this rate they could form a political party and do pretty good. So when do you suppose the drunks will organize and rise up against the government ?
