It's amazing how many people on this thread voted to legalize pot. I think the latest national poll I saw showed something along the lines of 50/50. It is time to let the states decide. If 50% of the population thinks it should be legal, that should correlate to marijuana being legal in approx. 25 states.
Not no but hell no.........I don't want to out driving on the highway with a bunch of spaced out dopers......Booze is bad enough.......
They are already out there on the highway with you, legality has nothing to do with it.
btw wtf is up with the necro on this thread?

If dope was legal there would be a hell of a lot more dopeheads out there driving and the next thing you dope heads would want is to legalize cocaine and heroin......no thanks..........
Compare any stats to those concerned with alcohol or tobacco, and they become a poor joke.We have enough problems with alchohol.
The high strength bud thats around is dangerous to mental health.
I've met a few people that have been damaged by smoking dope.
I suppose the only thing preventing you from shooting up heroin is a law that says you can't.

Do you think that alcohol should be criminalized? It seems that legal or not, marijuana and alcohol are used extensively. Alcohol seems to pose a greater danger than marijuana.
Historically, neither one has fared well under prohibition. But technology today would make it easier to locate and arrest illegal alcohol production.
This is a real question, not sarcasm.
Alcohol and cigarettes are already legal tou sure don't want to ad brain eating drugs to the mix.........
Polls have shown the American people do not want to legalize drugs.......This forum at the moment is 79-20 for legalization. It just shows once again how DP is slaned way to the left when politics are questioned.......
Legalizing drugs is not a left right issue. I know many right wingers who want to legalize pot. Its a vertical issue (authoritarian to libertarian issue)
I know many right wing libertarians who want to legalize marijuanaBeing a right winger I don't know any who want to legalize dope............Decrimalize maybe.........Medicinal purposes monitored very closely........
Gonna have to expand on that point..They have made a joke out of legalizing it for medicinal purposes in California.
It doesnt "eat at your brain..

It goes to a point of hypocrisy.Alcohol and cigarettes are already legal tou sure don't want to ad brain eating drugs to the mix.........
Edit: Those figures are annual.It goes a point of hypocrisy.
And marijuana doesn't 'eat the brain'. The history of medicine records not one single case of lethality, attributed to marijuana use. By starkest contrast, 2.5m deaths are attributed to alcohol, with 5m for tobacco.
To speak of the 'dangers' of marijuana is laughable, following a glance at the stats.
Here's the thing. Has prohibition worked? After the lost billions, poured into an empty hole of endless 'initiatives' and 'education'?
Is it any more difficult to obtain? Is it any less popular? Is it any less in demand?
It's absolutely nonsensical. In years to come, people will laugh at our attitudes. They will look upon us, as we now look upon those who once burned people for being witches or werewolves. That's how bizarre and brainless it is. Yeah, we'll be figures of fun. Personally, I think it's embarrassing.
Hear hear.The drug war has been far beyond costly and even further beyond failure. We legalize and gain revenue, cut wasted money, and it is much safer than things we consume every day such as caffeine.
