You would have to penalize people for being under the influence, same as alcohol or other drugs, in public or operating equipment, etc. Plus NOT allow people on welfare to smoke their brains into vegetables while whining about not being able to get or hold a job. BUT it does have a legitimate use in medicines, such as helping terminally ill cancer patients deal with pain, especially if the USA ends up with a socialized healthcare system like they have in the UK and end up waiting for treatment and painkillers for weeks or months. My grandfather used to say I'd live to see tobacco outlawed and pot legalized, guess he was right?

And to whom do you propose we rent out all those cells? You have to remember that the legal system has found a golden egg here. Weed doesn't hurt anyone(unless its done excessively, like anything else) and yet at the same time it provides the local governments with incredible amounts of money for things like parole and probation fees, fines, rental on cell beds... And that doesn't even account for the lawyers, rehab counselors....
If you are proposing to take all that away then you may want to propose replacing it somehow.

I think so they tie up so much money in the fight against it i feel the government can make money off taxing it like tobacco. it makes more sense that way. in all fairness i believe pot is better than Alcohol. it doesn't affect people as much as Alcohol does. a lot of people smoke marijuana, law enforcement, professors, lawyers, presidents and all other sorts of people IT SHOULD BE LEGALIZED i believe there is enough people out there that get marijuana on a regular bases that can tell you that it doesn't effect people the way that alcohol does any user can tell you and potheads aren't all stupid i know two great college professors that smoke it and a couple of high school teachers

I think it should be legalized for the simple fact that alcohol is legal. I don't use it but I know people who do and my experience has been that people are nicer when they smoke then when they drink. Honestly, have you ever met a "mean" pothead? Probably not but I bet you know a lot of "mean" drunks, right?

of course. of all the drugs and alcohol there is, the herb is the least harmful of any of them. the only reason its not legal now is the u.s. government cant admit to being wrong. in the 40s, they had propaganda movies against it. one was called reefer madness. you can rent it at most video stores. it will show you how stupid our government really is.they learned nothing after prohibition. ive been around the herb for 40 yrs. i have never seen anyone do anything bad under the influence. we just laugh alot and drive slow. and eat. whats wrong with that?

while i dont do drugs and think its kind of a waste, Pot does seem to be safe than other drugs including acholol and Smoking
so thers a plus, also if you legalize it, then it can be grown here, packaged stored and sold. which creates jobs and revenue, espicly since you can tax the **** out of it like ciggarettes, also Pot dealers are out of a job. so are the smuggelrs so that cuts back on crime alittle.

YES
Just so long as the gubmint can tax it.
It should only be legal for REALLY sick people.
Not able bodied pot-heads who fake illness to get a medicinal marijuana card (at least that's what they do here in California!)

ABSOLUTELY NOT! It is bad for your health and it can kill you. Stay away and NEVER touch it again cause I have never thouched it and I will never will. Smoking should be illegal. Marajuana should never ever be legal. It is too dangerous and its very stupid if you have ever come near it or if you ever think of trying it. So dont ever touch it because it WILL end up killing you!

no... if that happens then people will go dumb. then if people go dumb there will be more crime.
also lets say it gets legal here in canada and not in the usa then shipping cargos or w/e will take longer because they have to inspect if they contain marijuana. lol
