Cops say legalize drugs ask me why?
Prohibition does not prevent cannabis use by children or the mentally ill, the vulnerable populations whom we supposedly want to protect. Instead, cannabis prohibition makes it more difficult for parents, patients, society, and doctors to control cannabis use.
The Drug War makes honest education about cannabis impossible, and leaves cannabis users marginalized in ways that make their lives more stressful. This stress is unhealthy for everyone, but it is certainly most damaging to people with schizophrenia.
Cannabis prohibition is not merely a failure; it is a counterproductive fraud that is harming those whom we claim we want to protect. There are currently more teens in treatment centers for marijuana in comparison to those admitted for alcohol.
Only an idiot would have to ask why alcohol is not the no#1 problem
after all alcohol is perfectly legal ( If you are 21.) That is due to responsible people handling alcohol by way of the carding

All cops say this? I doubt you'd get a Police Chief to say that much less ALL policeman.
There might be a few that say that. I never particularly noticed that having a law against anything has stopped people from doing it that want to.
I know some people get busted and sent to prison but it is not the person that has a couple joints on him that is going to the pen. The ones that make the big time had many pounds of it on them.
I wouldn't mind what anyone does to themselves if it doesn't harm or bother others. Apparently nobody that has responded yet has ever had to take down a big person on PCP. Gotta draw the line on these very dangerous drugs. I personally don't care about pot though.

I am all FOR legalization of narcotics. People are going to use drugs anyway, it is not a crime(or shouldn't be) to ingest whatever you choose, its your body. Prohibition only made criminals out of people that wanted a beer. Drug laws only make criminals out of people that just want to get high. I want to get high and I don't want or need you telling me I can't. I am not a criminal, have never been in jail, and have worked all my adult life. I should be able to walk down to the local mini mart and buy pot if I want to.

yeh they said that last time
and i thought it was a con then
it was,they started watching those who they suspected
of being at the top of the tree regarding cannabis
by following all the little dope heads around and noting who was who and where the larger quantities were coming out of
then BUST time.ol bill are sneaky through and through you never ever trust them no matter what walk of life you come from,
a poem-keep looking and walking straight ahead dont let them ever turn your head
cos they sure will use you for what they want
leaving you alone and helpless
just left for dead
