I don't know that we need to copy the other countries ways of doing it (because I'm not sure how they do it)...but YES I think it should be legal, with some measure of control & of course as is the case with alcohol people could not drive, care for children, use while in the military etc. while under the influence.
btw, I wonder if there are any tests to see if a person was under the influence of it...I have heard it stays in a persons system for up to 30 days so how could it be detected if someone had just done it 2 hrs. ago or 2 weeks ago...?

It would solve a lot of problems. Cannabis is not totally legalized, and in Switzerland it is not sold to foreigners. But the profit potential for organized crime is removed, as is the criminalization of middle-class and medical users who have no other involvement in any criminal activity but who clutter American courts and prisons.

I would say yes...first of all, alcohol and tobacco are worse so why are THEY legal? Second, save the government money and instead make money from tax revenue. Third, free up police resources for violent crime. Fourth, grow hemp fiber for a better economy, and make outdoor cannabis less potent. Fifth, lower the price for cannabis consumers!

I don't know the laws in Switzerland or Netherlands so I can't say it should be like theirs, but it should be legal

Yeah. If booze is legal, why not cannabis? I never move in the right circles to get any and its usually cheaper than booze. There'd be less fights and riots on a Friday night if more people smoked it.

No, eating other people is wrong!
Seriously, though, as a libertarian I am in favor of legalizing all drugs. I am not personally in favor of actually using any of them, and would advise against it. But you are free to do what you wish to your body.

I hate to say it - but it may have to come to that in order to stop these millions of 50 cent wannabes from keeping their habits inside.
