Boy, why do we have the same opinion...You are much more fun to argue with than to side with....Damn it!!!!!

We probably don't agree on drugs in general. I want full legalization of everything.

No more hiding shit behind the counter, either. Unless it's for theft reasons, of course.

I prefer to have the government let me do what I want with my own body.

I agree with you 100%, but the results of MJ legalization vs. all drug legalization could be vastly different, and I have no idea how things would work out if cocaine, opiates, LSD, etc. was legalized.

Personally I don't think we'd see civilization change much if MJ was legalized.

You are right on that...I side with Bush on the hard stuff...Legalization of shit that will take over peoples families and lives to me is horrendous....not smart at all!

Thats simple..............train them in construction and have them build the GREAT WALLS OF AMERICA

problem solved and then they can go on to doing something productive.

You know in every other aspect of business besides the government, companies that fail year after year after year...........go bankrupt and out of business.

And most companies cant claim to squander the resources that the WAR ON DRUGS does.

That's what the scaremongers said about alcohol when Prohibition was in place.

I don't see mass chaos in the Netherlands.

Because those bastards are to busy in the red light district getting laid!!!! I have been to Amsterdam...And the ho's are fine as hell!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

But heroin is "legal" there in the shooting clinics. Also in Switzerland and some cities in Germany.

There isn't mass chaos.

Just because it's legal doesn't mean everyone in the country starts doing it. We're not all THAT stupid.
