If things like alcohol and tobacco are legal, there is no logical reason cannabis should be illegal. Adults should be able to drink, smoke, and cannabalize... I mean smoke cannabis.

Maybe the people who don't want to get caught with it because it is illegal? I think you underestimate human morals, because a high percentage of the would-be weed smokers aren't smoking yet because it's against the law.
Because the likelihood and penalty for being busted with the typical usage amount of weed is so high, right?
human morals are completely different to the likelihood of getting caught. Quite the opposite in fact. Read my post before you post something stupid mand make yourself look like an idiot.
There aren't that many "would-be" smokers, waiting for marijuana to be legalized. The people that would be smoking pot, already are. The chances of being caught and the penalties associated with being caught are quite low.
I think you'd be suprised how many people would start smoking

since i think a lot of prescription drugs that mimic or induce a state of calm like pot does are available to people who need them, con artists and druggies, i say, fucking whatever.

i think it should b legalized--and the only reason they wnt do it is b.c they cant tax it--they cant control how much is grown and sold.
Of course they can tax it.

The penalties should be set higher. Possession of a "personal use" amount of marijuana should be a felony with a minimum mandatory incarceration sentence of 1 year for the first offense, 3 for the second, and 5 for the third. Bet people will stop smoking it then.

Question for people who disagree: Do you drink alcohol? If so, what's your base behind why it shouldn't be legalized? And why should alcohol be allowed to be legal?
