Re: Legalization of Marijuana
You may be right about that Fj, but I'm talking about the legalizing of those other drugs based on the constitutional and economic argument for legalizing pot.

If pot is legalized, then we're one step closer to legalizing cocaine (for example). And that, I am not for, because of the much more drastic effect of those kind of drugs.

Hmm... I just skimmed through the text again and it seems to be an abridged version. The full version with the tables of data and consideration of intravenous use of equasy is behind a paywall. Harumph. I'm sure I've read it online before.

Similar answer to my driving one: if you're doing your job well then you are OK; if you're not or reek of weed then you get cautioned/suspended/trained/fired.

Don't think of it as being outnumbered. Think of it as having a wide shot selection!

Reeking of weed is managable. We already have to manage those employees with poor personal hygene.

Re: Legalization of Marijuana
I say it should be legalized and taxed. It would give our goverment money, it would actually be harder for kids to get it if it was regulated, frees up police and jails for more important things, etc.

I just thought of another Pro: Disneyland

How awesome would Disneyland be while stoned.

Re: Legalization of Marijuana
As I read this thread, I was reminded of what a great person once said, that really struck me as a wise saying.

Spoiler Alert!


Other than that, I really have no idea about any of this, save for the fact that I have not, nor intend to ever use drugs.

Good for you for not drinking or smoking. Same here, actually do none of the above.
Now through May 28th, the Louisville region is in desperate need of platelets - call the Red Cross if you are interested in donating!

I agree, while I have no intention of ever touching a drug, I still want my hemp to be allowed to be pumped through a gas station.

Re: Legalization of Marijuana
I support the legalization of it for medical purposes and for public use. It solves more problems then it would cause. The tax dollars from it would makes billions for the economy which this country needs. Note I have never smokes Marijunana nor can I with my disorder.
