    While I don't, nor have ever used, just not interested, It's really safer then Alcohol and Tobacco, and I'd rather it be legal and regulated and generating tax income, then illegal, unregulated, and generating tax expense.

    First 3 links on google. Noting I'm against Cigarettes, Alcohol, and all forms of drugs not used for medical purposes. Even those can be addicting and dangerous. Not only do these things affect the user, but the inability to be act or think responsibly or logically causes users of these drugs to do stupid things that lead to accidental murder. Marijuana may not make the user violent, it impairs them to be stupid.
    Only stupid one here is you if you think using marijuana the correct way makes people stupid. So many ignorant and uneducated people in this thread it's not even funny anymore. Marijuana, used correctly only enhances the individual, make then more open to themselfs and their enviorment, the TOTAL opposite of what you wrote. I posted some videos some pages ago, do yourself a favour and educate yourself before posting total horseshit.

    I don't care if it's legal or not, smoked some pot when I was a bit younger, but after an acid trip, I thought about it a bit and got really bored of it. You laugh and get paranoid sometimes, well, there are better things.

    Since then I never touched weed again, but I have some friends who stil smoke pot, but I dont give a fuck

    I'm right there with you. I don't use any longer, back in the late teens, early twenties, I partook often, but it was just something I grew out of.

    Honestly though, legalize it, start swapping the over subsidized farming industry over to it, and tax the hell out of the stuff.

    When you realize the rest of the cannabis plant is a better source for bio-fuel than soy, and can used to make a number of textile goods it turns into a very lucrative crop.

    Plus you get the increased tax revenue from selling legalized buds, the decrease in expenditure for legal matters and incarceration and the decrease in money being sent to cartels and kingpins in foreign countries.

    While people may argue the moral standpoint of its legalization, from a fiscal and geopolitical view it is rather absurd to not legalize and regulate it.

The DEA can't FIND any reason why it should be illegal other than "it's an addictive substance," so they use parent/teacher "broken record" technique of just repeating themselves to wear down the questioner. Oh lord, ALL this says to me is that the DEA has NO standing to say "pot is bad." Oh lawd.

    I'll take the personal experiences of my uncle and brother using it and my uncle deciding he could fly and jumping off a building than your video. Not all experiences are the same, and no matter what you say, it can be harmful. If it enhanced the user, the army would be using it, why not? They use everything else to enhance the soldiers to be more focused.

    hallucinations aren't a part of the side affects? I'm sorry, but if you believe that, you are hallucinating so much you think its real.

    Resources of law enforcement wasted
    countless have a record contaminated with a criminal record they do not deserve, just smoking pot and not bothering anyone else.
    US tax dollars thrown away in the billions.

    Yes, I think we should build more prisons and give harsher sentences. IF you know youre going to get 10 years if you get caught smoking that joint, youll be less likely to smoke it. Id be very happy to get those scums off the streets

    I literally got a fever of 102 from just reading your comment. I feel like I have the flu now. Not sure if its coincidence but what you said is absolutely sicking. Thanks for making me ill.
    So you want government to harass people for abusing themselves when they are not harming others. and no that bullshit about going to prison for smoking will only enrage people. I think people and the likes of you should mind your own business. People who smoke pot do not suffer serious harm (unless under 21-26 and they get their brains development slowed/damaged), a pot smoker who is MINDING HER/HIS own business "abusing" her/his own body IS NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS.

    Edit: also many RAPISTS don't even go to prison for 10 years.

    I find it difficult to think that you are even the least bit serious.

    I'm starting to become suspicious this is just a MMO-champ troll why maybe indirectly supporting the legalization movement by pretending to be against legalization and posting vulgar comments to make the pro-prohibitionists seem more hate filled than they usually are.

    everyone 21+

    I would even go a step further and make it 30+ considering the Average American below that age is about as mature/intelligent as a 13yo schoolgirl.
    Besides I think everyone needs to spend a few years putting in an honest effort at bettering themselves before throwing their arms up and smoking marijuana which is the real world equivalent to the fukitall pill or the adult version of Ritalin.

    In giving people the right to vote at 18 the government acknowledges they are a responsible individual capable of making adult decisions. It's philosophically and legally inconsistent to make the voting and drinking/smoking age different.

    It's no different than alcohol or cigarettes. Legalize it and tax it or whatever. The big thing is driving though. I'd assume you'd be allowed a very small amount while driving as it can hinder you behind the wheel.

    The only people who would be willing to pay the tax is people who didn't start smoking it until after it is legalized.
    The rest of us would never accept a mass produced pot as it would be an inferior product, though I guess after 20-30 years people would forget about the good stuff and just buy the mass produced shit because they dunno any better.

    Who cares who is "willing" to pay tax?
