The US government likes to cut corners when it comes to Drug Laws.
Marijuana does not match the criteria.

Key points to emphasize:

people will not develop emphysema from smoking marijuana.


The overall rate of highway accidents appears not to be significantly affected by marijuana's widespread use in society.

For christs sake when i smoke, 90% of the time it's in a car on our way to a party or the movies or some type of event for the night. Sometimes im just on my way home from Uni. Shit is that you are perfectly capable of driving whilst under the influence of marijuana. That is, if you're not a complete moron which tends to behave like a complete douched show-off.


Marijuana does not cause people to use hard drugs. ... Most marijuana users never use any other illegal drug. Indeed, for the large majority of people, marijuana is a terminus rather than a gateway drug.

This would be my favorite. Simply because i smoke marijuana, and marijuana only. I do not drink, and i dont do any other shit either. This does not mean that i havent tried other shit. I have and i've disliked my experience with other drugs.
Take salvia, for example. For some odd reason this sick shit is legal.

And alcohol, as legal as it may be, i despise.
Drink your ass off and puke and wake up with a hangover. I'll be smoking my ass off and eating, and when i wake up the worse that could happen is ill wake up with a nice buzz.

Oh and i have my own theory for your last question. They can't tax marijuana... ?

Oh but by the way I do think it should be legal. I just think that it ruins people, it's their choice to do it though.

How so?

I don't really feel like going into my lifestory and the rather clear differences in my friends who constantly smoke weed vs. the ones that don't, it's not empirical either it's just developed my own personal opinion. I'm not here to prove anything, hell I think it should be legal, I don't think an alcoholic is better off than these people, and that's legal.

I just have seen it change people significantly for the worse over extended periods of time, you can't prove to me that it didn't and I can't prove to you that it did so I'll stick with what I've seen and you can continue holding beliefs based on what you've seen and then everyone's happy.

They did.  This was the stamp act.  You could get mj you just had to pay the tax on it and get a stamp, to get the stamp you had to present your mj.   When you presented your mj it was owned without a stamp which was illegal so they jailed you...

Our government hasn't changed.  It still wants to put the yoke on all of us so the politicians and their friends do well.

You want the drug laws changed - vote those who disagree out.  Or if you really want to make the world a better place drag the politicians out of bed and hang them in their own front yards.

The next wave who get elected will be a bit more wary about dicking over the population for their jollies.

I never asked you to change your opinion.  Honestly. I never even asked for your opinion on the durg, period.
I am questioning legality on a very specific scale here.  I would have thought that you of all people would be able to answer the question in a somewhat respectable, relative fashion.

Guess not.
