A little late to the game on this, there are a number of threads already discussing it. To answer your question though, absolutely. The war on drugs is a colossal failure, costing tens of thousands of lives and billions of dollars.
Edit:
P.S.
If all the drug violence was in the states the way mafia violence was during prohibition, it would already have been legalized. But most of the losses are in Mexico, so our government takes an out of sight out of mind approach to it.

Federal Government are gonna throw a hissie fit.
Legalization of pot is not exactly a great thing. Legalization means controlled growers, which means controlled amounts of THC in the product. You can also anticipate massive taxes on legalized pot, similar to those on cigarettes, which means we would end up paying way more for an inferior product. Now, I'm not American but if I was I would be content with state legalization because the government at that level is less likely to get as involved, which will allow growers to continue to fly under the radar and for us users we are free to enjoy the product that we have been enjoying thus far.
Just my two cents.
TLDR: Yay pot! Beware legalization though.
I think this is a great first step to getting Marijuana off the Class 1 drug list.
Hopefully other states, and finally the federal government will follow suit.
anyone else planning a Colorado trip this winter?
Congrats, Colorado! Well done, well done.

Please, using the current thread to discuss this, there's no need to create another one.
